Can a psychopath be a good person? And how do we spot dangerous people when they seem so charming?
This holiday special brings you an in-depth answer to one of your most-asked questions with highlights from Dr. Kerry’s interview with Tara Blair Ball about the Dark Triad Personality.
We explore why dangerous people don’t look scary, how we underestimate predatory behavior through “positive projection,” and the critical difference between niceness and kindness—especially important to remember during the holiday season.
