Have you ever shared a personal story only to have a loved one respond with a debate or an ill-timed laugh?
In this episode, Dr. Kathy Marshack introduces the concept of Conversational Aspergian to help you decode these moments and understand the emotions beneath the surface.
Using a deeply personal story about her mother and other real-life examples, she explains how neurodiverse individuals often use humor, logic, or avoidance to mask their true feelings.
You’ll learn to look beyond the words and expand your own empathy, transforming frustration into understanding.
