The Addictive Nature of Being Right

In this episode of Changing Minds, I explore one of my favorite topics: persuasion—how to ethically and effectively influence others. I break down the difference between persuasion and manipulation, examine psychological roadblocks like confirmation bias and reactance, and unpack Aristotle’s classic ethos, logos, and pathos with a modern addition: demos—the audience.

Whether you're leading a team, selling an idea, or having a meaningful conversation, persuasion is your superpower. I’ll share frameworks, insights, and strategies to help you win hearts and minds while staying grounded in integrity and empathy.
