Today's Woman: Beautiful Since the Beginning with Guest Anne Montgomery | Season 2 Episode 34

“The more they said no, the more I said yes I can.” 

Faced with what seemed like a line of no's, Anne Montgomery said yes to herself - yourself to her future and yes to being an example of what's possible 

Anne Butler Montgomery has worked as a television sportscaster, newspaper and magazine writer, teacher, author, and amateur sports official for over four decades. From ESPN to anchoring the Emmy and ACE award-winning SportsCenter, Anne finished her on-camera broadcasting career with a two-year stint as the studio host for the NBA’s Phoenix Suns. She went on to teach journalism and mass communication at the high school and collegiate level. 

In a time where she was constantly told what she couldn’t do because she was a woman, she not only did everything she set out to do – she continued to master her craft and deepen her knowledge of the industry she loved. 

This a conversation of grit, determination, and challenging the standard of what’s “acceptable.”

What You Should Know about Reading People: How To Read People and Decode Body Language | Season 2 Episode 29

Alan Stevens is an International Profiling and Communications Specialist regularly featured on National TV, Radio and in the World’s Press, profiling the likes of our leading politicians, TV and sports stars as well as Britain’s Royalty. He’s been referred to by the UK Guardian as the leading authority on reading people, globally and the mentalist meets Dr Phil by the Herald.

 "We are all born profilers." - Alan Stevens

Stevens feels that anyone can learn to read people with the right instruction. In his business, he uses facial profiling and body language to understand why people react the way they do. He focuses on micro expressions, which are facial movements that give us away and makes it hard to hide our true feelings. He also says that non-verbal clues give the most value in a conversation. It’s not only what the person is saying, but how that look and act when they are saying it. 

Today on Reset with Raven: 

• How to reset your interactions with people by reading them
• Body language and facial expressions decided 
• Using profiling as a truth seeker not a lie detector
• A problem shared and not acted upon is a problem magnified
