When Margot Alexis found out that she was in a "Neurodiverse Love" marriage she began to focus on the only person she could change..."herself". In this episode, Margot shares that when a friend of hers suggested that her husband might be autistic,  that took her on a journey to learn everything she could about neurodiverse relationships and autism spectrum disorder.  After more then 20 years of marriage, she made her own healing journey a priority and didn't discuss neurodiversity with her husband, until she had done a lot of her own work.  When she finally brought up the subject with her husband he was open and ready to hear what she had learned. 
Through counseling with a therapist that has expertise in ASD, and a lot of grace and compassion, Margot and her husband now understand each other in ways they hadn't for many, many years.  Margot shares openly about the challenges she experienced with her husband regarding communication, emotional reciprocity, different processing styles and co-parenting.  She also shares the wonderful strengths that make her and husband a good team.  Margot also shares why she started the "Healing Cassandra" podcast and how she has created a community for women to heal and find their voice.
