Ladies, if you’re like me then your woman's intuition is something that could use a little help. We try to read people we meet and in meetings, but the truth is we may be misreading a lot of people and missing a lot of potentially great relationships. 

What if I told you that you may be misreading as many as 26 people for every 100 you meet?

First impressions matter and learning how to read cues and verify if your gut is telling you truth or not is a skill we can learn and my homie, Vanessa Van Edwards, the charismatic human behavior detective and recovering socially awkward person, is giving us a masterclass on how to decipher the hidden secrets behind the smile, the handshakes, and quirky quirks that seem like red flags to run away from.

Dating isn’t easy, but we’re making it super easy in this 2 part episode by breaking down:

What body cues mean ask more questions

How to speed read your date (and yourself)

What he’s hiding behind those dreamy bedroom eyes that you should watch out for


Learn how to confirm what your gut is telling you, master the art of connection, read his mind confidently, and never worry about being lied to again.

And, to make sure you’re feeling super confident, I’m including this episode with Linda Babcock so you know the psychological tricks to winning any argument and negotiating like a total badass.

QUOTES:

“Your filters can mess up your first impressions.”

“Trust your gut instinct as I need to pay closer attention, but that's all it is.”

“When a red flag comes up, you are looking for a difference in the baseline.

“Your first word in your date, on your zoom call, in your meeting is actually the most important thing you can do for your confidence.”

“I like to take a Pollyanna approach to lie detection in that we should assume the best. We have to assume the best in people because if we do that, we are not going to get as many false positives and we're not going to see as many false lies.”

“Fear is contagious, but pride is contagious too. This is why charismatic people we're so drawn to them. It's because we want to catch their charisma.” 

“When we check our phone, we accidentally go into the defeat posture.”


“If you think about negotiation as a conflict, as a battle, as a war, as like threats and as aggressive behavior is what will work, then you’re going to be in big trouble.” -Linda Babcock

“A ‘no’ is not actually the end, it’s an opportunity to discuss more and find a common ground.” -Linda Babcock
