In this powerful episode of Women of Impact, Lisa hosts Joe Navarro—former FBI agent, world-renowned body language expert, and bestselling author—to break open the science of spotting deception and protecting yourself from dangerous personalities. Drawing from his 25 years in counterintelligence and behavioral assessment, Joe unpacks the subtle physical and psychological cues that reveal stress, discomfort, and manipulation before words are ever spoken.
Joe shares practical, science-backed strategies for reading body language in real-life situations, from dating and the workplace to high-stakes interrogations, and reveals why your gut instincts are your first and best line of defense. With riveting real-world stories and actionable tools, Joe arms listeners—especially women—with the knowledge and confidence to recognize red flags, trust their intuition, and stay safe.
