BONUS podcast: Let's talk about lying. There are a lot of reasons why everybody lies. Neurodivergent partners have specific reasons why they lie, and sometimes it's different from the reasons why neurotypical partners lie.
It's important to look for toxic types of lies that are strategic and intended to harm or that inflate one's ego at the expense of others. These are different from the avoidant types of lies that range from "little white lies" to fear and avoidance of consequences or a partner's response or reaction.
If there is a lot of lying in your relationship and you need some help figuring it out, you can book a consultation to speak with me directly to get some answers. My coaching program is designed to help you get clarity and solutions for a better life.

When a person's faith and spiritual values are used to coerce, convince, or control and manipulate, devastating harm is done. Weaponized faith is all too common, and I see the trauma it causes in so many of the men and women who contact me for help. "Scripts" about the roles of men and women, and husbands and wives, are often conveyed by well-meaning religious leaders, but then, in the neurodivergent community, applied rigidly in a relationship. Both partners often participate in reinforcing a coercive and controlling dynamic that utilizes shame, guilt, and obligation to get one or both partner's needs met - both believing they are following the beliefs of their faith. This relationship is ultimately highly dysfunctional, and can become toxic and abusive. Take a moment to listen to my conversation with Dan and Stephanie Holmes, who are Christian neurodiverse relationship specialists. This concept applies to people of all faiths and value-systems because these same dynamics occur in any relationship where beliefs and values are used to manipulate.

I am frequently asked the question "How do I stay committed to my Christian values of being compassionate and selfless without losing myself and my identity - especially when my autistic partner doesn't believe my needs are valid?"
I recently had a Q & A with Dan and Stephanie Holmes where we talk about this and so much more. Dan and Stephanie founded the International Association of NeuroDiverse Christian Marriages, LLC to bring hope, help, and possible healing to NeuroDiverse Christian Marriages. Their ministry also includes educating and equipping helping professionals, clinicians, and ministers with effective coaching and counseling strategies by first understanding and accepting the complexities of NeuroDiverse Christian Marriages.

S2E9 In today's episode, part two with my best friend, Kathy, we have a really important conversation about toxic traits and how that's a very different thing from neurodiversity. Kathy and I both have experienced toxic personalities in our marriages and our relationships.
This the last episode of my summer series on communication and of sharing my personal neurodiverse relationships with you. If you missed any of the previous episodes, go back and through Season 2 and meet my autistic daughter, Abby, and her brother, Aidan, as well as my mother. I'm so glad they all agreed to be on the show and share our neurodiverse relationships with all of you! It's not just about marriages - neurodiverse relationships are of all kinds!
Also, I'm taking a short break before we bring Season 3 to you (in about a month), but we will be dropping some neurodiverse relationship Q & A, and tips here for you, so stay tuned!Be sure to contact us if you'd like to be a guest on the podcast - this podcast is about YOUR Neurodiverse Relationship. I want to talk to you!

I am really, really excited today to have my best friend Kathy, on the show. She is the last of the mini series this summer on communication and of me sharing my neurodiverse family and friends with you.
This two-part episode is one of my favorite yet because Kathy and I talk about so much! There's so much packed into these two episodes. Kathy and I talk about our own friendship, which is a neurodiverse relationship. We talk about her family of very different neurodiverse personalities...and as best friends do she even calls me out on something that's actually really important! We have a very good conversation about it that's going to be very relatable to so, so many of you. You're going to want to listen up to hear what we have to say about that. Kathy also has some amazing insight as well about being neurodiverse, herself, and the mother of two neurodiverse children who are practically grown now themselves. She shares the strategies that she's used to parent them and help them in their lives even as she's realized later in life that she's neurodiverse herself.

In last week's show, during my chat with my mother, I mentioned how those of us who are neurotypical and neurodiverse speak different languages. We have many different kinds of language...emotion, logic, social, relationship, love...and we all speak them in different kinds of ways, and with different levels of fluency.I also told you in the last show that my next guest is my best friend Kathy, who has her own neurodiverse family and who has her own neurodiverse traits, herself. In that chat she and I talk about our own friendship and how we've dealt with our differences through the years....BUT...I've decided to wait until next week to air part one of our conversation. This week I'm going to share with you the audio from a "live" I did in my private Facebook group where I talked about these different languages we speak. It seemed so relevant! So here you go and tune in next week for my chat with Kathy.

In part two of my conversation with my mom. We talk about how we discovered neurodiversity in my own family. It's a narrative that is so similar to many of yours. Neurodiverse relationships are not just about domestic partnerships...the person that you married or that you're dating...it spills over into the whole family. It's part of the entire life experience that you're having with so many people.

As we continue our summer series on communication, I took a moment to talk with my mom, Jean, about this neurodiverse family of ours. Her perspective and her observations about discovering autism in our family is going to be so relatable to so many of you. As a retired teacher (and she was held in high regard in our community), she thinks back to students she had who she now realizes were neurodiverse - and how she didn't understand their needs or how to communicate with them. Next week, in part 2, we talk more about our own family, and how we've realized through the years that autism has been right here in our own world for generations. You don't want to miss it...because it's your story, too.

Communication is the bridge that connects us and this week we continue my summer communication series. Today in part two of my conversation with two of the very most important people in my life, my daughter, Abby, who is autistic, and my son, Aidan, who is neurotypical, we talk about what it's been like for them as siblings in a neurodiverse relationship, but also with me as their neurotypical mom navigating parenting in a neurodiverse family. I invite you to hear what they have to say, because I think you're going to really relate to so much of it!
