Do you know all liars have a tell? Are you utilizing the most from your descriptions of body language to engage your reader? Today’s guest is an expert court witness when it comes to reading and writing body language.

Welcome back,
Dr. Deborah Maxey - As a child, Deborah loved to eavesdrop on adult conversations and developed a passion for stories. As a licensed therapist, she specialized in trauma and attachment, appearing as an expert witness in court over one thousand times, testifying on behalf of abused and neglected children. A writer since childhood, she heard God call her to close her practice and repurpose, not retire, in 2020 and write for Him. Her debut Award-winning novel, The Endling, was released in May 2021. A popular speaker, Deborah loves sharing her wisdom and encouraging others. Her life motto: He speaks through everything.
