Evy Poumpouras On Courage, Confidence & Protecting The President

Trinny is joined by Evy Poumpouras – journalist, author and former special agent with the United States Secret Service.

Welcome to Fearless, the empowering podcast that tells the stories of inspirational people who have overcome challenges and fears in their lives in order to thrive. 

After 12 years in the Secret Service, Evy is no stranger to high-pressure situations. Trinny and Evy take a look back at her remarkable career so far, from the skills she acquired as a polygraph examiner to working undercover and protecting President Obama. They discuss Evy’s firsthand experience of 9/11 in New York City, her tried-and-tested advice on overcoming trauma, and why managing your fear requires a deliberate act of courage. 

Plus, they delve into the damaging impact of gossip, the importance of evaluating your social circle, and the ways in which we can all fortify our mental armour.
