Late Discoveries, Lifelong Lessons | Jodi Carlton & Mona Kay
YOUR Neurodiverse Relationship Podcast: Season 6 - Navigating Neurodiverse Love & Life - Episode 1
Introducing Season 6 of my podcast, YOUR Neurodiverse Relationship. This season is entitled: Navigating Neurodiverse Love and Life
I’ve teamed up again with one of my favorite colleagues, Mona Kay, host of the Neurodiverse Love podcast and the Neurodiverse Love Docuseries (featuring your truly).
In this premiere episode, Mona and I share our backgrounds and why we partnered to create a more personal, casual show about neurodiverse romantic relationships, families, and life as a neurodivergent person or parent. Mona describes discovering her marriage was neurodiverse late in a 30-year relationship and shares the pain of her divorce in 2018.
I share how understanding neurodivergence began with my 23-year-old daughter’s autism diagnosis when she was 5 years old, and how I eventually discovered that my own marriage was neurodiverse after 19 years and a destructive divorce.
Also, get a sneak preview of my upcoming book, The Misunderstood Mind.
