In this episode, we dive into the tension between influence and manipulation. What makes the difference—is it the outcome, the intention, or simply the story we tell ourselves? We explore how language shapes perception, how judgment can become self-deception, and how being influenceable is both a strength and a vulnerability. Through personal stories, emotional moments, and deep reflection, we consider the wildness of our feelings and the quiet power of modeling. What if the most honest influence is simply how we live?
