Podcast episode (Slovak) in which host Nora Šulíková interviews psychologist/coach Martin Čajka about manipulation in relationships and how to set boundaries. They open with the tactic "divide and conquer" and outline manipulation principles: information control, isolation, eliciting emotions to bias decisions, reciprocity, authority, and social approval. They emphasize that unclear or unarticulated personal values increase vulnerability because manipulators can re-define values (e.g., "fairness") to coerce behaviour. Practical defenses discussed include clarifying values through iterative questioning, asserting asertive rights, using descriptive (non-evaluative) language to de-escalate, asking concretizing questions (funnel to specifics), refusing immediate decisions, and—when necessary—removing contact and minimizing exposure to the manipulator. They also cover emotion work (mindfulness/meditation, recognizing bodily cues, reframing), stress as an amplifier of susceptibility (seasonal/holiday stress), and lifestyle supports (sleep, exercise, diet, reduced stimulants, social support). Episode closes with host promos (book, meditations, challenge) and links in the episode description.
