    Ex Army Colonel and Now A Master of Manipulation | Reading People & Making Better Decisions

    Meet Col Sudip Mukerjee (Retd.), a former Indian Army officer turned behavioral expert, author, and NLP practitioner, joins us for a deep dive into decoding the hidden patterns behind how we think, decide, and interact with others. In this episode, we explore why manipulation isn’t always negative, how language reveals our thinking patterns, why confidence is a byproduct of knowledge rather than affirmations, and the four core human needs that secretly drive most of our decisions. Drawing from his experiences across the army, psychology, and corporate leadership, Col Mukerjee breaks down the mechanics of human behavior, offering powerful insights on relationships, anxiety, self-awareness, and how understanding the mind can help us navigate life more consciously.
