Aphantasia vs Hyperphantasia dynamics in a committed relationship with Kali and Alex.

Send a text

In this episode, we bring back Kali and Alex (this time together) to talk about how finding out about aphantasia and hyperphantasia has affected their relationship. They discovered that Alex has aphantasia and Kali has hyperphantasia through experiences with hypnosis. Alex explains how he felt "broken" before he found out that aphantasia was a thing. We explore many topics, including empathy, reading, school, focus, memory, careers, words, phrases, music, and more. It's remarkable to hear about how much they have tried to understand each other's internal experiences and are using this information to strengthen their relationship. We also discuss the idea of "oneness" and what it might be like to switch minds for one day.
