Show Notes
Discover what’s possible when communication breaks down both ways.
Do you ever feel misunderstood?
Terra Vance is the founder of NeuroClastic, an autistic-led non-profit organization that publishes articles by autistic writers and professionals advocating for autistic representation and human rights. Kate Jones is an artist and visual designer at NeuroClastic.
In this episode, we discuss:
- Damien Milton’s theory, ‘The Double Empathy Problem’
- Why Terra and Kate don’t feel the need to uphold hierarchies and the status quo
- How autistic people show empathy differently from non-autistic people
- How abstract communication can be confusing and lead to misunderstandings
