Gentle Power

38. Negotiating in love and dating


Listen Later

Most weeks on Gentle Power, we talk about power dynamics in professional settings like job offers and negotiations. In this episode, we focus on negotiations in none other than… love and dating! We explore how vulnerability, power dynamics, and behavioral psychology shape connection and influence, often in ways people misunderstand.


Our conversation covers:

  • Vulnerability feels like weakness but it’s actually a strong marker of power 

  • People will like you more if you ask them for a favor - the Ben Franklin effect

  • How to tell if someone likes you by looking at their body language

  • How to regain power when the other party is being aggressive
