You know those moments when your gut is screaming “danger!” but their words are saying, “trust me”? This episode is your masterclass in decoding deception, because learning to spot the mismatch between someone’s body language and their story can literally save your heart, your finances, and your life.

I’m sitting down with former Department of Defense interrogator Lena Sisco:

She’s faced-off with terrorists, psychopaths, and cheaters, and uncovered their secrets in seconds. If you want to protect yourself from manipulation (whether in love, business, or “just” friendship), buckle up. You’re about to unlock the psychology, verbal clues, and micro-signals that expose a liar before they ever open their mouth.

Here’s exactly what we dive into:

- Universal red flags: the subtle body language, filler words, and facial micro-expressions that scream “deception”

- Real examples (including Bill Gates & Melinda’s interviews) broken down, frame by frame

- The step-by-step script for calling out infidelity or dishonesty (without ever sounding accusatory)

- The “biases” that leave smart women vulnerable to manipulators
