BECOME EMOTIONALLY BULLETPROOF - how to master your emotions, rely on yourself & take control of your life with Evy Poumpouras

Ep 91. This episode with Evy Poumpouras might be one of my favorite conversations of all time. Evy is a multimedia journalist who once served as an agent in the US Secret Service, protecting Presidents Barack Obama, George W. Bush, Bill Clinton, and others. She also worked criminal investigations, operated undercover, and was an interrogator for the agency's polygraph unit specially trained in the art of lie detection, human behavior, and cognitive influence. It's no wonder she believes that words are your most powerful weapon and she loves teaching about how to protect yourself, read people, influence situations, and live fearlessly.
