Episode 4: Cassandra Syndrome, Misattunement, and Tangents We Refuse to Edit Out

In this episode, we talk about Cassandra Syndrome - what it is, why it’s a problem, and how it shows up in cross-neurotype relationships. We get into the double empathy problem, developmental trauma, and the kinds of anxiety that come from being chronically misunderstood. We also go off on some very real tangents about:

  • Trains and chicken nuggets

  • Interoception, alexithymia, and emotional gummy bears

  • That feeling when your body’s sending signals but your brain’s on mute

As always, it’s part theory, part lived experience, and completely real on purpose. We’re glad you’re here.
