“Evy brings her experienced and persuasive voice to one of the most important issues we face personally and globally: safety.” –Gavin de Becker, bestselling author of The Gift of Fear“Evy offers us a new narrative about what strength, determination and grit sound like, act like, and look like. Her book shows us where our true power and fearlessness comes from: the mind. In the midst of the current political, social and cultural climate, she introduces a new way for us to empower and protect ourselves.” –Iman Oubou, founder and CEO of Swaay Media“Evy takes readers on a powerful journey from being vulnerable and afraid to being prepared. Not only would I trust her with my life, I would go through any door with her.” –John (Buck) Smith, Chief Inspector/Fugitive Task Force Commander, United States Marshals Service (Ret.)“Evy’s insight into safety and self-defense is second to none. In addition to her incredible knowledge, training, and experience she is battle-tested and proven having stood tall for our country when so many lives were on the line including her own. For anyone concerned over personal safety in these challenging times, this book is a must-read.” –Maria Menounos, New York Times bestselling author“In a world that seems to be getting more violent, less safe, and crazier year after year, Evy is the much-needed voice of calm, humor, and sanity.” –Jenny Hutt, Sirius XM radio host“San Bernardino, Paris, Las Vegas … for years I have turned to Evy to advise, guide, and empower in times of crisis. When it comes to security and safety, I find myself asking, ‘What would Evy do?’” –Dr. Drew Pinsky“Poumpouras’s wise direction and actionable lessons will be relevant to audiences of all ages.
