Sex offenders are just like you and me.
I'm not saying that they're exactly the same as you or me—they've committed some pretty heinous crimes, after all—but the reality is that they are not entirely different from us.
In fact, there's a lot more to unpack about sex offenders and the human behavior - and we're about to do just that in this podcast episode.
We're diving deep into the topic of sex offenders, human trafficking, and how we can protect children, together with our guest, Eleanor, who has some seriously fascinating insights into the psychology of human behavior.
She's also going to share with us her journey from working with sex offenders to becoming a coach who helps leaders create healthy and supportive work environments.
We talk about:
What led Eleanor into the field of forensic psychology
The biggest lesson that she learned about human behavior working as a criminal psychologist with sexual offenders
What led offenders to choose to commit crimes and how do people like us choose not to
We all have a choice - it’s not 50% coming from our parents and 50% coming from us, it's 100/100
How leaders can create work environments that people actually love
What can we do to protect children from human trafficking
And so much more!
So be sure to tune in as we've got a lot of A-HA moments in store for you in this podcast episode!
