Description
When Stephanie Bethany married her husband at 19 she didn't know she was autistic, however when she was diagnosed at 23, things began to make more sense. Working together she and her husband have grown and learned so much. During this episode, Stephanie shares how understanding neurodiversity has helped her and her husband let go of so many misunderstandings they had in the earlier years of their relationship and marriage. They both have a better understanding of each other's intentions and know that they are there to help and "de-code" things for each other. Stephanie shares openly the ways in which she has reduced her feelings of being overwhelmed at family functions and social events because she knows her limits and when she needs time to decompress. She is able to advocate for herself in most situations and is comfortable asking for accommodations when she needs them. She also talks about how she is working on creating a schedule that not only includes her work and school commitments, but quality time with her husband. In addition, she shares how she is learning how to deal better with emotional shutdowns and periods of feeling overwhelmed.
During this episode Stephanie and Mona share lots of laughs and discuss how important grace, compassion and love are when your partner is having trouble speaking during emotional times and also may have challenges with processing emotions. This is another important episode that neurodiverse couples may want to listen to together.
