William Aprill of Aprill Risk Consulting on The UNTHINKABLE

This might be our most important episode on mindset yet.  We sit down with renowned clinical expert on violent criminals, mental health professional William Aprill, and he explains why good people often fail to prepare adequately for encountering EVIL people by failing to understand them and what they are capable of doing.

William Aprill explains that violent criminals don't think like you, don't value the things you do, aren't motivated by what motivates you, and consequently aren't you.  Failing to recognize that ahead of time and preparing your response can mean injury or DEATH.
