Episode notes
First Seven Seconds Decide Safety
- First impressions form in 4–7 seconds as the brain quickly assesses safety and friend-or-foe status.
- Linda Clemons explains this primitive amygdala response drives rapid nonverbal judgments before words matter.
Use The Power Lean To Show Interest
- Lean forward slightly with relaxed shoulders to signal interest and curiosity on a date or meeting.
- Linda calls this the loving/learning lean and contrasts it with leaning back or crossed arms signaling disinterest.
Feet Point To Where Minds Want To Go
- Feet reveal intent because they point toward where someone wants to go and often 'run away' before the person does.
- Linda notes upper body can face someone while feet subtly angle toward the exit.
