In this episode, I break down Robert Greene’s fascinating conversation with Steven Bartlett — an interview that goes far beyond manipulation or “power games.” Greene, author of The 48 Laws of Power and The Art of Seduction, shares why real influence begins with emotional intelligence, how confidence is earned through mastery, and why self-control is the highest form of power.
We’ll explore:
Why seduction is really about attention, not attraction
How “fake confidence” collapses under pressure
The difference between external and internal power
The role of patience, gratitude, and life purpose in long-term success
If you’ve ever wanted to feel more grounded, confident, and quietly magnetic — this episode is for you.

We've seen it in Harry Potter, but what's the real science behind invisibility and can we achieve it?
What is Ozempic?
First, let’s define what we’re talking about. Ozempic is the brand name for a medication called semaglutide. It was originally developed to treat type 2 diabetes, helping patients manage their blood sugar levels. However, one of its side effects caught the attention of researchers and the public alike — significant weight loss.

We all curate our lives online. Presenting the best version of ourselves, the fun trips, the witty retorts, the smiling pictures; it’s all part of our daily lives. Taking four different selfies in order to get the right one and then editing that one ad nauseum is what most of us do. That’s what’s expected. It’s rare when someone posts about how miserable their lives are or how unhappy they are. It happens, but it’s rare and most of the time people don’t interact much with those posts. And to be honest, when those people become too much of a Debbie-Downer, they slowly get shunned. Most of us present the best version of ourselves to the online world.
