YOUR Neurodiverse Relationship with Jodi Carlton, MEd
#5: Now What? Deciding on a Path Forward in Your Neurodiverse Relationship
17 Apr 2024
This is the final episode in a five-part series, Navigating Neurodiverse Relationships, where my co-host, Mona Kay, talks with me about steps for addressing relationship challenges to find a path forward. We share personal stories and insights into the challenges we faced in our own marriages. In this episode, we specifically discuss how inappropriate hope is such a common problem for partners and couples, and how other obstacles like low self-worth and chasing dead-ends lead to increasing distress and antagonism in neurodiverse relationships. The final step navigating your neurodiverse relationship involves evaluating all of your choices and options and implementing changes for yourself. No more staying stuck. Let us help you get out of the quicksand to determine a real path forward! 00:00 Season 4:: Navigating Neurodiverse Relationships 00:28 The Five Key Step 01:37 The Final Episode: Step Five - Figuring Out a Path Forward 04:03 Inappropriate Hope 12:17 Healing and Moving Forward 20:52 Finding Happiness and Peace 26:12 Concluding Thoughts and Resources for Neurodiverse Couples ___________________ 👩💼 Hi, I'm Jodi Carlton, a leading world expert on adult #neurodiverserelationship dynamics and interpersonal #communication.
