There is a seductive and destructive lie many people fall into: Learn the best tricks and gimmicks and you can have complete control over your relationships - romantic and business. 

It's so seductive because it promises control and success, but it's even more destructive because it delivers fear instead of control and breeds insecurity instead of success. 

Worst part?

These tricks and tactics work in the short-term, but they come with a mighty hidden cost: You slowly erode your self-confidence and self-respect - two necessary ingredients for happiness and fulfillment. 

But there's a better way, and that's what I share with you in today's show. The solution is simple, but not easy.

If you're tired of living with a gnawing sense of anxiety, you're tired of wearing masks because you feel like you're not good enough on your own, and if you're tired of hollow successes and relationships, listen now. 

Show Highlights Include:

• The weird way relying on game and gimmicks erodes your confidence (even if they help you land dates) (1:08) 
• How taking shortcuts in dating and leadership quickly becomes a self-imposed prison (2:47) 
• The counterintuitive way that your success plants the seeds of your future destruction if you make this simple and seductive mistake (5:15) 
• How to get rid of the deep, gnawing anxiety that's causing a war inside you (11:55) 
• Why honesty, especially when it's hard, cuts through your mask and gives you a chance for authentic connection (18:00) 
• How manipulation makes you lose respect "both ways" (22:39)
