E79 – What Your Body Language Says About You

Some people can read a room. Today’s guest can read the people in it.

Jan Hargrave has spent decades teaching everyone from Fortune 500 executives and law enforcement professionals to television personalities how to understand the messages we send without saying a single word. She’s one of the country’s leading experts in body language and nonverbal communication, and after today’s conversation, you’ll probably never watch a conversation—or have one—the same way again.

But before Jan became an internationally recognized behavioral authority, she was a proud Cajun girl from the bayous of South Louisiana, where family, storytelling, and paying attention to people weren’t just traditions—they were a way of life.

Today, find out what our faces, hands, posture, and expressions reveal, why first impressions matter more than we realize, how to spot confidence, deception, and authenticity, and how becoming more aware of body language can transform our relationships, our careers, and even our faith.

So settle in for a fascinating conversation with body language expert Jan Hargrave. I think you’ll leave seeing people—and maybe even yourself—a little differently.
