Conversation with a Psychopath - M. E. Thomas (Part 1)

Lawyer, musician, and author of Confessions of a Sociopath, M.E. Thomas joins me to talk about psychopathy without fear, caricature, or moral panic. This is not a conversation about monsters. It’s a conversation about meaning, identity, empathy, boundaries, stories we tell ourselves, and what happens when a sense of self is missing—or too rigid. Topics include: Psychopathy vs sociopathy (and why the words matter less than people think) Whether empathy defines humanity Moral gray areas and emotional triggers Sense of self, memory, and meaning Buddhism, psychopathy, and why extremes break humans Relationships between psychopaths and empaths Therapy, identity scaffolding, and building a self Why rules exist—and when they stop protecting people What society gets wrong about psychopaths and other stigmatized identities Guest Links: Book (Confessions of a Sociopath): https://a.co/d/9NGRTZf Website: https://www.sociopathworld.com   Become a Superfan: https://JaminColler.com/iirh_Superfans Blog post:  #IfImReallyHonest #TeamPossiblyWrong
