In this episode, Katya and Katheryn dive into Chapter 2 of Rebecca Yarros’ Fourth Wing (with spoilers for Chapters 1-2). Violet faces one of the most dangerous challenges yet — crossing the infamous parapet. We talk about the intensity of this scene, the mix of fear and determination it stirs, and what it reveals about Violet’s character.

Our discussion explores the psychology of survival, how anxiety shows up in moments of extreme stress, and the different ways people cope when everything is on the line. We also reflect on how trauma and resilience shape the cadets at Basgiath.

We also share our favourite moments, ask who might need therapy this time, and invite you to reflect with us.
