In this episode, AJ and Johnny reveal one of the most powerful — and overlooked — body language cues in human behavior: the freeze. First uncovered by former FBI counterintelligence agent Joe Navarro, the freeze isn’t fidgeting or eye contact — it’s the moment someone suddenly goes still. Whether you’re leading a team, negotiating a deal, or having a difficult conversation, this cue can tell you when you’ve hit something real. You’ll learn exactly what the freeze means in the brain, how to spot it in real time, and the one move that separates amateurs from operators when it happens. This 10-minute skill upgrade will forever change how you read people, build trust, and uncover the truth in any conversation.
