Are You Being Influenced... or Manipulated?

Why do smart people fall for charmers, gaslighters, or narcissists—even when the red flags are obvious?

In this eye-opening session, Dr. David Snyder teaches you how persuasion predators hijack your emotions, build fake rapport, and chip away at your identity.

You’ll also learn how to:

Spot and stop manipulation fast
Boost your natural charisma using playful energy

Use the “Echo Technique” to gain instant trust—ethically

Discover your emotional drivers so no one can weaponize them against you

Ask yourself: Are your choices really yours—or are they being made for you?

This training shows you how to protect your mind and ethically influence others.

Quotes:

"Human beings are values driven. They have a checklist that lets them know if that value is being satisfied or not, and they're driven to satisfy those values." - Dr. David Snyder
"Attention is the currency of all relationships. If someone's not paying attention to you, your ability to influence them drops." - Dr. David Snyder
"Emotions are contagious. They radiate out and they start to vibrate other people. It's picked up by their mirror neurons, and their state starts to change." - Dr. David Snyder

Actionable Takeaways:

Practice the “Playful State” Drill Daily Shift into a light, fun energy to instantly boost your intelligence, creativity, and resistance to manipulation. Just 5–10 minutes a few times a day can rewire how people respond to you.
Ask: “What Do I Really Want?” Use the Emotional Motivation Checklist to uncover what truly drives your decisions. Keep asking: What do I want? What will that do for me? Why is that important?—until you hit your core emotional values.
Use the Echo Technique in Conversations Repeat people’s exact words back to them to build deep rapport and hold their attention. It’s simple, powerful, and can’t be ignored—even when they know you’re doing it.
Watch for “Emotional Fast-Tracking” If someone tries to bond too quickly, overwhelms you with flattery, or mirrors your deepest needs—pause. Ask yourself: Are they earning my trust or manufacturing it?
Assignment: Create a Manipulation Journal For the next 7 days, write down any moment you felt “off” after a conversation. What was said? What emotional buttons were pushed? Look for patterns and triggers.
