 In today's fast-paced world, it's easy to feel overwhelmed and stressed. Throw in the challenges that come with a neurodiverse marriage, and you're likely to feel constantly on edge. This perpetual state of fight-or-flight can wreak havoc on our nervous systems. Practicing ways to calm our nervous systems to maintain our overall well-being is essential. Our guest, Lori Haas, is a Certified Healing Emphasis Yoga Therapist and has been helping women for many years to have a more nurturing, kind, and loving relationship with their body.  Lori also has a background as a mental health clinician with over 30 years experience. We discuss how the nervous system works and its role in our health.  We talk about our window of tolerance, fight or flight response,  moving from unconscious to conscious behavior, the benefits of EMDR therapy, and healing emphasis yoga.

We have a conversation with Jess about dealing with grief and forgiveness in a neurodiverse relationship.

In this episode, I have a conversation with Sallie. Sallie is at a marriage crossroad. Like many NT wives, she hit a breaking point and realizes that things need to change to live the life she deserves. In this inspirational interview, Sallie shares her journey on how she took back her life. Does she decide to leave her husband of twenty years, or does she choose to stay? Her story is a good reminder that change is possible when you are willing to walk through fear and bet on yourself.
