When the rules of engagement seem to be written in another language, you might be on what I call Aspie Planet.
This episode explores the Apple TV+ series, Mythic Quest, as a powerful allegory for life in a culture governed by the intense logic, passions, and unique communication styles of those with Autism Spectrum Disorder.
You’ll learn how to recognize the markers of this world—from transactional communication to obsessive loyalty to work—and discover how to navigate it with your empathy intact.
If you’ve ever felt like your relationship is a world unto itself, this conversation is for you.
