The Neurodivergent Creative Podcast

Redefining the Empath Identity with Dylan King | #150


Listen Later

Are you a highly sensitive person, an empath, OR a bonus third thing: AUTISTIC? In this heart-to-heart, Caitlin Liz Fisher chats with the amazing Dylan King—a Trauma-Informed Spiritual Coach who blends creative writing and coaching to help neurodivergent folks unmask, embrace their quirks, and step into their most authentic, favorite selves.

Together, they break down the myths about empathy, sensitivity, and what it really means to navigate the world with an open heart and a creative spirit.
You Will Learn:

  • The empath to autism pipeline: reframing sensitivity as neurodivergence

  • Our cultural inability to process emotions and its impact on neurodivergent individuals

  • The connection between creativity and emotional processing

  • The importance of language when describing trauma and relationships

  • How ancient fairy lore might resonate with modern autistic experiences
