For the highly sensitive, intuitive, and intense people among us, our greatest gift is often the source of our deepest interpersonal suffering.

We pick up on invisible tells and subconscious subtext that others miss. We can just feel when the energy shifts. But when we try to speak that truth to the person on the other end, we often make the mistake of outsourcing our validation. We get upset that they aren't seeing our version of reality, and inevitably, we get labeled "crazy." The tragic irony here is that the harder we fight to prove we are sane, the more we fulfill the “prophecy.”

In this episode, we’ll be stepping as far away as possible from diagnostic labels and looking at this dynamic through the lens of ancient mythology, depth psychology, and alchemy. We’ll dissect what I’m calling “The Cassandra Curse.” The archetype of the prophet who was doomed to see the truth, but whose own reaction turned her own story into a tragedy.

We explore:

· The Self-Sabotage Loop: How we turn a valid intuition into an explosion that destroys our credibility (and how to interrupt it)

· The Control Trap: Why trying to "force a confession" out of someone is actually a form of control

· Pearls & Swine: Why we keep handing our highest currency to people who aren't ready to receive it

· The Transformation: How to move from the Hysterical Victim archetype to the Sovereign Priestess who trusts her own intuition and doesn't need anyone else to sign off on her reality for her

It's time to stop trying to prove you're right just to make others wrong and start trusting what you see and letting that be enough.
