Women of Impact

Do you ever get the gut feeling someone’s lying…but you can’t quite prove it? Or worry that you’re missing all the red flags because the liar in your life is just that convincing? Then today’s episode is about to be your best weapon. I’m sitting down with the incredible Lena Sisco, former Department of Defense interrogator and literal human lie detector. She’s faced off against terrorists, cheaters, and manipulative masterminds, and now, she’s giving YOU the tools to decode deception in any relationship.

We’re tearing back the curtain on lie detection: body language, micro-expressions, the four types of lies, and the sneaky “text bridges” and red flags cheaters use to get away with it. Plus, get the tools to build unbreakable psychological safety and trust in high-stakes conversations. We even break down viral cheating scandals and call out exactly what liars do on camera! No one is off limits. Buckle up, because you’ll never watch an interview, go on a date, or ask your partner a tough question the same way again.

Welcome to another empowering episode of Women of Impact. Today, I am thrilled to dive into a topic that's often shrouded in silence but is foundational to our relationships and individual confidence: sexuality. Joining us is the incredible Jaiya, a renowned sexologist who has transformed the conversation around intimacy with her groundbreaking work on sexual blueprints. Together, we'll unravel the complexities of sexual compatibility, tackle the discomfort of sexless relationships, and break free from the chains of shame and embarrassment that too often confine our sexual experiences.

Lisa Bilyeu, with her characteristic openness and depth, shares insights from her own marriage, highlighting the lifesaving importance of understanding and speaking your partner's erotic language. We'll explore the different types of sexual blueprints—energetic, sensual, sexual, and kinky—and discuss how to communicate them effectively, ensuring that you and your partner are truly connected in the most intimate of ways. So, prepare to be empowered and maybe even a bit enlightened, as we discuss how to transform your sexual blueprint into a source of strength and pleasure with the wise guidance of Jaiya.
