75. Behavior Is Data, Not a Verdict
<p>In this week's episode of The Language of Behavior, Josh and Charlie dive into the question of how to tell when someone is lying. They explain why there is no perfect tell, why body language alone can be misleading, and why the most helpful approach is to look for clusters of behavior that deviate from a person’s baseline.</p><p>The conversation explores eye movement, stress responses, confirmation bias, and the importance of asking more questions instead of jumping to conclusions.

74. What Is Behind the Lie?
<p>In this week's episode of The Language of Behavior, Josh and Charlie explore a question that affects students, adults, and leaders alike: why do good people lie? They unpack the many reasons people stretch the truth, including fear of consequences, shame, protecting their ego, avoiding embarrassment, and trying to gain approval or belonging.</p><p>The conversation also looks at what lies are really protecting beneath the surface, and why honesty is often tied to safety, trust, and self image. Josh and Charlie share practical ways to respond when someone may not be telling the full truth, emphasizing curiosity, connection, and a deeper understanding of behavior instead of shame or punishment.--</p><p><strong>FREE The Language of Behavior Book Study Kit: </strong>https://thrivingeducator.myflodesk.com/lobbookstudy</p><p><strong>Bulk Book Discount:</strong></p><p>https://www.connectedd.org/bulk-orders</p><p>Do you have any questions for the podcast?
