Step into the world of The Godfather and uncover the psychological depths of Vito and Michael Corleone. This conversation invites you to explore how power, trauma, and unshakable family loyalty shape their identities and drive their choices. What lies beneath their calm, commanding surfaces? How do their pasts influence the way they lead, love, and retaliate? Through the lens of personality disorders, generational wounds, and the haunting weight of violence, we examine the humanity behind their actions—and the surprising roles that compassion and forgiveness might play in understanding them, people like them, and yourself.
