You're not broke because you're lazy. You're loyal to a script. In the finale of the "Who's Running Your Life?" trilogy, Carlos Siqueira (Carlos Inspire) goes after the most powerful manipulator in your life: the voice in your head that sounds exactly like you.Starting from his own script, written on the streets of Brazil selling bread at 7, Carlos walks through what the research actually supports. That includes Wendy Wood's finding that about 43% of daily behavior is habitual, Brad Klontz's four money scripts, and the 2013 study in Science showing that financial scarcity measurably impaired farmers' reasoning. Then he lays out the 66-day rewrite protocol, built on reappraisal, if-then planning (Gollwitzer & Sheeran's meta-analysis of 94 studies), and University College London's habit-formation research.In this episode:Why your money habits run on autopilotThe four money scripts: avoidance, worship, status and vigilanceHow scarcity taxes your mind, and the loop that followsThe three-sentence exercise that reveals your scriptThe 66-day rewrite: name it, write the new line, install an if-then, and never miss twoWhy the real payoff is the script your kids inheritSources mentioned: Wood, Quinn & Kashy (2002).

You've already been manipulated today. In Part 2 of the "Who's Running Your Life?" trilogy, Carlos Siqueira (Carlos Inspire) uses 20+ years on the selling side of the table, and over $1B in revenue helped generated for Fortune 50 companies, to expose the six persuasion levers pulled on you every day.Every lever comes with the study behind it: Ellen Langer's 1978 "because" copy-machine experiment, Tversky and Kahneman's rigged wheel of fortune, Freedman and Fraser's foot-in-the-door yard signs, Worchel's cookie jars, the restaurant mint tipping study, and Cialdini's hotel towel experiment. Then Carlos shows why you can't rely on spotting liars (a 2006 meta-analysis put human accuracy at 54%) and gives you a three-move defense protocol.In this episode:The difference between persuasion and manipulationThe six levers: because, the anchor, the small yes, scarcity, the gift, and everybody elseWhy reading faces fails, and why reading levers worksThe defense protocol: name it, the 24-hour rule, and flipping the questionThe one test for anyone selling you anythingSources mentioned: Langer, Blank & Chanowitz (1978).

Somebody at your company is already doing your job, and it never sleeps. In Part 1 of the "Who's Running Your Life?" trilogy, Carlos Siqueira (Carlos Inspire) goes after the biggest fear in the workplace right now: AI.This isn't another doom episode. Carlos walks through what the World Economic Forum's Future of Jobs Report 2025 actually projects (92 million jobs displaced and 170 million created by 2030), and why 39% of core skills changing is the number that matters. Then he breaks down the Harvard Business School and BCG "jagged frontier" study, where AI made the best consultants dramatically better and made blind trusters measurably worse.From selling bread on the streets of Brazil at 7 to helping generate over $1B in revenue for Fortune 50 companies, Carlos explains why three human skills get more valuable as AI spreads: accountability, reading the room, and orchestration.In this episode:Why AI replaces people who stopped growing, not jobsThe second half of the Harvard and BCG study nobody talks aboutThe A-and-H task audit you can do in 2 minutesThe 30-day plan: audit, automate one task, reinvest the time, show your workWhy "later" is the most expensive word you'll ever saySources mentioned: World Economic Forum, Future of Jobs Report 2025.
