In this episode, you’re going to learn how to decode body language from one of the world’s leading experts on the topic.
Janine Driver (janinedriver.com/) @TheRealJanineDriver has been trained by the FBI, CIA, and one of the world’s top hostage negotiators. News networks call Janine to analyze body language and critical verbal cues that suspects, politicians, and celebrities send so we can tell when somebody is lying.
If you love True Crime, you’re going to love this episode, because it’s a masterclass from an expert who’s spent over three decades decoding body language for law enforcement agencies around the country.
She will teach you which hand gestures indicate that somebody may be lying, why you should grab your chin during a high-level meeting, why you should never shrug your shoulders if you want to be convincing, and the million dollar question that you should ask at the end of every single interview.
If you’re dating, you’ll learn all kinds of incredible tactics, like why you should never sit directly across from someone on a first date.
This is an incredibly interesting, entertaining, and surprising take on how to build confidence and be smarter about the subconscious signals that other people are sending you all day long.

My biggest take aways are.. first that I have been in in company of two truly great women and I feel honoured. There is hope for me to get better at communicating. Beauty is gracious and kind and wanting the best for people. After all that I need to listen several times so I retain as much as I can. Thank you so much.

Great episode! Yesterday I implemented one of tricks with my 5 year old!! She was agitated during our sleep routine and bothering my other kid. I told her that I know she is respectful and a good person, that her teachers always say that about her, she agreed and so I told her that because of that she was going respect our sleep routine. It worked!!!! Thank you Janine and Mel!

I’m 62 now n decided 2 years ago to get off this cocktails of meds suffering n going thru withdrawals ect suicidal I’m finally out of the coma bout a month or so ago n I’m standing up for myself I’m not letting everyone control me it’s caused such a shocker. Nobody likes me but I’m not people pleasing anymore this is my life n I’m gonna b happy I dint need their approval.

It is not just the gut, it is our sixth sense, as well, our 'extended mind' like when we turn around and someone is looking straight at us and we felt it, without even consciously realising why we turned. Our survival depends on these things. It's also reading bodies, that refines it, when people are being deceptive it does confuse our senses, so seeing the flags of possible deception with our mind and feeling the gut reaction combine. Now we have to take care in the boardroom not just the jungle ;)
What stuck out for me (or maybe what I needed to hear most) was the story about the bees and the flies. I've been dancing in and out of a relationship for 10 years with a fly constantly hoping that he would become a bee. While we have enjoyed some wonderful times together doing things out in the world, our inner world has been really impacted by my bee-ness trying to survive his fly-ness. It has been draining. When she said that bees don't try to convince flies to like honey, it landed over here like a big AHA! That's what I've been trying to do. I come from a family of flies so no surprise 1. that i chose a fly and 2. that I made up/hoped that I had been switched at birth well into my 30's. lol I am strong, powerful, insightful, generous, giving adn a stand for all people to live their greatness. Those are the seeds I'm planting. Thanks, Mel. Thanks, Janine. Thanks, HP./Universe/Spirit. This was just what I needed to hear today.

Someone tried to take me when I was 17, and I ran into a trailer park and hid under the skirt of a trailer as I watched him driving his car slowly around the park, looking for me for two hours. I stayed under the trailer for 5 hours before I dared to come out when I ran home through backyards, avoiding the roads. No one believed me when I told the adults around me because we lived in a small town and had never had that experience. This was in the early 1970s, and I still don't have relationships with my family because they didn't believe in me when I was terrified. On the other hand, that experience gave me the gift of the site, the best gift anyone could ask for.

Im glad your still here you were a brave kid back then to know things other kids might of not picked up on it.
Thank you both for this amazing conversation. I've learned so much and here are some of the takeaways I wanna share: 10:23 You plant pumpkin seeds, what does it grow? Pumpkins. You plant tomato seeds, what does it grow? Tomatoes. People get what they grow, they get what they plant. 13:30 We're not teaching emotional intelligence at schools sadly. Signs for stress/lying through pacifying gestures: rubbing eyes, touching necks, thighs, lips,... Emotional intelligence includes self-awareness, social awareness, self-adaptation, and motivating others 21:40 Shoulder shrug = uncertainty. The root of the tree: what do you believe? Trunk: body language (comes 5 sec before thoughts). Branches: thoughts. Leaves: words. This means you have a 5-second advantage to know how they feel before their brain knows how they feel. Your words plant the next seed, it create what's coming next 25:25 When you don't like what you see, your lips disappear.

What I learned… I saw Janine‘s Ted talk yesterday and I was impressed by how flawless and confident and professional Janine is. I happened to find this interview today. What I loved from this interview was the stinking thinking, and how it can happen to all of us. This was eye-opening. Thank you.
I loved this interview! I listened to 3/4 of it on the podcast but then rewatched it all on KZread. I really loved the Tony Stark posture analogy. I can teach this to my kids. As well as rephrasing “you’re addicted to computer games!” The “Good to Know” was great too!!! I recently cut someone out of my life. If it wasn’t all about her she’d just look away & get distant. She was warm (not hot) & would gradually get cold in her treatment of me. Something I learned recently was that “Ego has to be the best & worst at everything” - this was her. She would only talk to me if no one else she knew better was around - literally walk off & talk to her best friend when they turned up. But the final straw was when I was going thru a really stressful time; it involved an incident at school where my 6yo daughter was hiding behind a tree whilst sticks & stones were being thrown at her & when I would talk about it, she would look away whilst I was talking & it felt like she was rolling her eyes & thinking “oh god, her she goes again!” So now I avoid her, unfriended on facebook. I am no longer the “benchwarmer” in her life but I am civilised & have said hello when I see her & I keep walking.

idk about “unfriending” ppl on fb I think that looks a bit dramatic. Maybe I might “mute” them. “Cutting someone out of your life” is a pretty intense way to handle someone who just isn’t interested in you. Maybe she doesn’t have kids, or maybe she doesn’t want to discuss heavy, upsetting things at social occasions? Also, you said you brought the thing up that happened to your daughter _multiple_ times? That’s too much dawg. Why on earth would you be bringing up something so personal and so heavy to someone you barely have a relationship with? *yikes*

@@memidiane38 you sound like one of those people who announces that you don’t want any more drama- when *_you_* are the drama 🙄 A considerate, mature person would just move on and not waste their energy, or maybe even take the hint that they are making ppl uncomfortable or being boring. Maybe adjust your own behavior and not bring up your kid’s trauma multiple times to an acquaintance, who might even have a history of being bullied in her own life, or might just not know how to discuss something _so heavy_ with a chick who clearly needs to be the center of attention and probably lacks empathy. That’s histrionic behavior, and it’s evidence that she probably makes everything all about her, and it also indicates to me that her kid is likely not getting the support she needs either. Everyone is probably too busy walking on eggshells around mom. Get over yourself.

Mel, this episode was AMAZING! I met with a fitness instructor today and immediately upon greeting him I shook his hand as confidently as I could. When the conversation was over, I ended it the same way. Super empowering. Also, during our conversation, I was focusing on his and mine (of course) body’s language. He even told me I seemed very confident( although I was slightly nervous 😫) because I was asking questions and making sure I knew what I was signing up for. To sum it up, I signed up to begin a new fitness journey to begin living a healthier and physically better lifestyle. Listening to this episode today, really changed how I handled today’s confrontation. I couldn’t have done it without you guys. THANK YOU! Really, I mean it. 🙏🏼❤️
I definitely want to add that i completely felt it when Janine said she is too much for some people because I, too, am too much for some people. I like the "good to know" and will definitely use it! Thanks again ❤

You look devastated as you listen to her say those words, and I feel almost insulted that you couldnt imagine it that way. Life is crazy and I appreciate you so much.

Hello, Your video is very interesting. I am a member of the deaf community in the uk. I by myself am defend with severe hearing loss. We using sign language which includes NMF (non manual features), all hand signs are combined with facial, body and moving expressions. We additionally try to catch lip reading( which is very difficult) The result is that all deaf people seem staring at you or each another. This is a must. I say deaf people are the best listeners as we give you 100% of our attention and are highly focused to get the information in a conversation. Deaf people are highly sensitive and can read people very well. I don't actually need really your advice as there is only a true conversation possible as you can not sign without emotional action. It would change the meaning of the sign you using. E.g. never mind and can't be bothered is the same sign but with the difference that in the first meaning the eyebrows going up with the shoulder flinching and the mouth making pft. Can't be bothered has the tongue between the lips with puffed cheeks ,highly raised shoulders and eyebrows found. You understand. And in both cases the upper body goes a bit back. I am talking about BSL not ASL. We are brilliant reading faces and body language as it is essential for just talking for us. Just saying. You might be intrigued looking in to this... You tips are really good...

I caution people using the "are you ok" question because I've had it used on me in a very passive-aggressive way. Similar to when someone tells you to calm down. Because I wasn't not okay until I was questioned four times in a row. I loved this podcast and got a lot out of it too. I love you Mel as well. I am learning so much and reading your 5 second book.
Omg, Mel, I LOVE your podcasts! They are incredible! Thank you for providing all this info for free!

I am listening to you Mel and your guest and wow am I thrilled. I plan on writing notes and sitting quietly to absorb what you women are saying. I because of my past am a very good body reader. I use to watch students intentionally walking down the hall and into the class to see what their body language said to me and then I would hug them, ask them questions... My Grandmother came from the USA when she was 7 years old in 1907 she and her sister moved to Canada when her Mom had passed away. My Grandmother wasa my very best teacher. I was told I was gifted by a professor who taught giftedness but sadly died @ age 55. I was recognized by only one principal in my 11.1 years of teaching in the second largest school board in Canada. I was ousted by a woman who became Chief Superintendent. Other teachers knew what she was like. Anyhow when one door closes another opens up and so I studied my mind for 6 years under ancient wisdom rather than by traditional psychology that is used in the West. I was also a very unique and excellent teacher but was NOT recognized by the system for what I offered the students and or their parents. Parents really appreciated me. I must get back to my work so that I can be free on Sunday which is our Thanksgiving Day.
This was fabulous! I was hanging on her every word ! Absolutely loved this interview ❤

This is the most interesting and intriguing conversation I've ever heard. I love it! Thank you, Mel and Janine!
Two inspirational women!! I loved this podcast with all the valuable content. Thank you both so much 🙌💜💫😘😘
I am so happy Mel that I discovered your Channel today! I love your energy.
That was GREAT! “Good to know.” That’s a perfect comeback line. I will be using it! ❤
This was amazing content by both Janine and Mel, so helpful. I love that information like this is generously shared to help empower us in specific situations, especially if we tend to shrink. The only thing I would add is not to take Janine's advice about using the eye contact tactic on servers/waitresses. For someone who spent a chunk of time in that industry, though no longer, waitstaff are already in a disempowered position. Guests can belittle you and disrespect you in so many ways, no need to have another trick to make sure you are the one in power.
So MUCH value 🤩 And so many things to practice/ work on! Janine is awesome! So…”good to know!”
I just remember my Wonderful Father used to steeple. He was a kind and gentle Leader.
Love this episode. One of my favourites. So interesting and helpful. Can’t wait to watch it again. Love positive good helpful people. Thank you.
Mel!!!! This was an amazing episode! I can't thank you and your guest enough!!! I downloaded the episode so I could go back and take notes! ❤❤ thank you for being an awesome Podcaster....I love your show! and thank you to Janine!
Thank you Mel!!! I love this stuff! I feel so empowered! Oh btw this AM I woke up on my back (scoliosis causes this to render me in excruciating pain due to muscle spasms) and instead of laying there contemplating just where to move to make it less painful. Like I naturally do, I said in my head 5-4-3-2-1 and pushed myself up through the pain and was standing up 😮thinking “I gotta thank that Mel someday for this” lol so THANK YOU! I’m living in my RV after my husband of 13yrs kicked me out to move in his new supply! So I’m on a new journey and your on it with me and I didn’t even know it! 😂💯thank you💯no shoulder hike or eye everting here! 😂❤❤❤
This is my favorite guest so far . I learned soooo much thank you Mel for all that you do to inform us
I liked this episode some much! I am very interested and curious about body language and human behavior, and Janine explained so well simple things that we don't notice, and her explanations were like a light bulb moment in my head! Furthermore, I loved the hand steepling, the “good to know” and the way you can get someone to tell the truth, I can hardly wait to use it! Thank you, Mel, for what you do, for this episode and thank you, Janine! 🥰
I relate to Mel Robbins so much. We got nervous and we laughed at the same time. She is intimating. Great information!
I loved this interview. Being Japanese I learned that what is not said is even more important than what is said. I liked the analogy of the tree and how your body reacts 5 seconds faster than your thought. I also liked the idea to not use the negative but to use the positive and that the idea of manifesting your expectations. I will work on not using don’t and change it to do…
Great energy. Love the tangent thoughts as she rushes through every second of her life, detailed in the first 10 minutes! I cracked up when she’s talking a million miles an hour about her career development, and interjects, “my son, who is 17 and 6’1” was a baby”, and keeps on talking without missing a beat.
This was amazing! She is fantastic and I learned so much. Please have her back again.
I learned so much from this podcast. Thank you, Mel!
Oh wow! My first time watching your podcast. What a treat this was, I learned so much 🙏❤️🙏
FANTASTIC !!!!!!!!! Mel, this came up today (11/10/23). This was THE BEST interview I have ever watched - for several reasons. I needed this so much. I will rewatch this over and over. This was meant to be. THANK YOU, MEL, AND, JANINE.

Amen ❤❤
this is so fascinating to me! I've always wanted to be more self aware and certainly more aware of other's body language.
From one badass to another, this interview was badass. Right up my alley and line of work!! Thanks Mel and Janine!!
Absolutely fascinating! Thank you for arranging this excellent conversation!
This was incredible!! Thank you. I love how Janine said, “rewrite our story. We all deserve a comeback!”
This was outstanding Mel. Janine is fabulous and such powerful and helpful info. Thank you for this.
Her story about a bully boss was eyes opening. I wish I heard it 7 straight out of college. It could have saved me a lot of worries
i learned so many things, it's impossible to name just a couple/few. That woman was fabulous. She poured so much into "us" i'm SO THANKFUL.
I Truly Loved Loved Loved the talk!! Thank you Mel, Thank you Janine and Thank you Janine for mentioning Audrey's book!! I truly appreciate you sharing your time with us to better ourselves ❤❤❤
This is great stuff!! Learned so much from this podcast. Thank you, Mel!
I’m in love with both of these women!! I’ve been screaming exactly what she calls out, instead of ‘don’t’ call out what you want, hugest frustration with the ‘don’t bully’ BS in elementary schools, bullying has increased since this program started
I love this guest ! Everything about her. She's gorgeous inside and out. Truly lovely. I adore that she pours out so much information! THAT shows how loving she is. She wants others to know her "nuggets" of wisdom. I have rarely seen someone so amazing. She gave me 40 secrets of amazing information. Hope to meet her one day !!
Amazing! Obsessed with Mel & Janine Driver. I get so stoked every time she’s on Court TV. Super smart & inspiring.

Thanks for giving her full name.
I'm blown away! Thank you for sharing her with us, Mel. I shared this with my daughters and sister. You have all our backs! GOOD TO KNOW❤😂!!
Wow. This was so powerful and motivating. What an energy this woman has! I’ve never even heard of her before-amazing
Excellent segment. Enormously insightful! I am aware of the behavior of a man touching his head when lying or uncertain. I have an acute awareness to human behavior due to abuse. I never heard of Janine prior to this segment but I am a new follower now. Thank you, Janine and Mel for such a great podcast segment.
I’m definitely re-watching this and taking copious notes! Thank you for the content you put out there for is!
LOVE THIS on sooooo many levels!!! You both rock ❤❤
Thank you Mel Robbin’s for putting the right guests in front of us today. This is just what I needed! I love you Mel❤
I have done the steepling in videos and didn't realize until after I saw this, and I Loved the "Good to know" I would say "Thank You" but I will try the new phrase. Loved this episode. Thank You Mel and Please bring Janine back.
I am rewatching this many times!!!! Powerfull!!! I need to learn this whole episode until i live all of it!!! ❤
Thank you Mel , you are truly an amazing person and I'm so grateful that I just discovered you, you have no idea how much you already helped me 😘😘

Boy, oh boy this was really educational and also inspiring to listen to this interview. Bless you.
Hands down best podcast I've seen in a long time!! Thank you!!
Hi dear! I started following you as a part of my journey to learn English to improve my vocabulary.. I just wanted to say that I genuinely enjoyed listening your videos and today’s guest literally blow my mind!
Wow, I'm glad I stayed and listened all the wy through. Mel you make an impact!
I want to learn ALL of this! I am an empath, so my intuitive perception of others is always "on," well, at least I thought it was....
wow I was listening while in the car and had to come home to watch this episode. She's a powerhouse! this was my favorite episode since I learned so much about myself and human behaviors. I certainly will listen to this again and take notes and then start to become aware of people more as I talk, especially while dating!
