Psychological manipulation isn't limited to governments or intelligence agencies—it happens in everyday conversations, relationships, organizations, and culture.
In this first episode of The PsyOps Playbook, Dr. Kevin Zadai sits down with behavioral profiling expert Chase Hughes to uncover the tactics used to influence thoughts, emotions, and decisions—and how clarity can help you recognize manipulation before it takes hold.
Drawing from decades of experience training military personnel, intelligence professionals, and leaders, Chase explains how fear, obligation, and guilt are often used to shape behavior. Together, Kevin and Chase explore practical ways to recognize unhealthy patterns, respond with wisdom instead of emotion, and strengthen your discernment in an increasingly complex world.
This is just the beginning. The PsyOps Playbook is a multi-part series designed to help you recognize manipulation, think more clearly, and strengthen your discernment.
