When you’re trying to read someone, don’t fall for this body language myth.
Evy Poumpouras is a former U.S. Secret Service agent who served in the elite polygraph unit, which means she was a human lie detector, where she was trained to read behavior and detect deception under pressure.
Evy explains that looking away is not a sign someone is lying. It often means they’re thinking, recalling, or searching for the right words.
Body language doesn’t look the same for everyone. It’s unique to each person.
What matters is understanding someone’s baseline - how they normally behave - and noticing when something actually changes under stress.
On this episode of The Mel Robbins Podcast, Evy breaks down how to read people accurately, avoid common mistakes, and stay in control so you don’t get misled by outdated myths.
You will get a masterclass of all of her best secrets from over 3 decades of training and experience.
