Interoception
from The Yellow Ladybugs Podcast Hosted by Yellow Ladybugs
Welcome to Episode 3 of Season 5 of the Yellow Ladybugs Podcast series. This episode describes how interoception—the sense that helps us understand what’s happening inside our body—plays a key role in the wellbeing of autistic girls and gender-diverse young people. When interoception is underdeveloped or misunderstood, it can impact everything from recognising hunger and pain to managing emotions and setting boundaries. We explore why interoception is often overlooked, how it connects to emotional regulation, and why building interoceptive awareness is a powerful protective factor.
