If part one left you rethinking what makes a psychopath, you’ll want to buckle in for the second half of this deep dive.
In this episode, we explore the “successful” psychopaths who climb corporate ladders instead of prison fences, the grim reality of treating adult psychopaths, and the cutting-edge neuroscience that could one day change their brains. We also look at why children with callous-unemotional traits are our best chance at prevention — and how predictive analytics and early intervention could rewrite their futures before it’s too late.
From boardrooms to courtrooms, and classrooms to correctional centres, we unpack where psychopathy hides, how it manifests, and whether society can truly rehabilitate those wired for harm.
⚖ Topics:
• Successful vs. criminal psychopaths
• Corporate psychopathy and “snakes in suits”
• Treatment challenges for adult psychopaths
• Neuroscience-driven rehabilitation
