Like all couples, NeuroDiverse (AS/NT) Christian couples face challenges with communication and connection. Those challenges are nuanced in a way that most couples, therapists, and clergy don't typically recognize. Often NeuroDiverse Couples have children on the spectrum (or or other differences), this podcast will dedicate topics to the NeuroDiverse Couple as well as issues that may arise in spectrum or special needs family systems. We invite you to learn about NeuroDiverse Christian couples to understand those aspects more fully.2021+ Dr. Stephanie and Dan Holmes Higiene y Vida Saludable Psicología Psicología y Salud Mental

  • Interoception: What's the Connection or Disconnection with Kelly Mahler
    Nov 17 2025
    Today, Dr. Stephanie Holmes talks with Occupational Therapist, Kelly Mahler. The topic is interoception! Every neurotype can struggle with it, but we find neurodivergent folks can have a few more challenges with interoception.

    Defined by Kelly's website: Many people notice these feelings in their body with the help of an important sense… a sense called… interoception.
    Don’t let the name fool you. The word interoception might not sound very sexy or important. But this sense is a really big deal. Interoception has a huge influence on many areas of our lives, like self-regulation, mental health, and social connection.
    About our Guest:
    Kelly Mahler, OTD, OTR/L, earned a Doctorate in Occupational Therapy from Misericordia University, Dallas, PA. She has been an occupational therapist for 20 years, serving school-aged children and adults.

  • I Still Make the Turkey- It's my Job
    Nov 12 2025
    In this holiday-themed episode of Just the Guys, the conversation centers on thankfulness—not as a sentimental add-on to Thanksgiving, but as a practical tool for navigating the chaos of family gatherings. Drawing from Dr. Jim Wilder’s teaching on appreciation as the spark that “turns on our relational circuits,” the guys explore how gratitude transforms not just moods but entire relationships.
    Greg admits that even when overstimulated, “I still made the turkey; it’s my job”—a wry reminder that responsibility and love can coexist with limits and self-awareness. Jeremy reflects on the sobering truth that “what you complain about today might be someone else’s answered prayer,” while Kevin shares how recovery and thankfulness helped him replace counterfeit joys with authentic connection. Dan rounds out the discussion with insights on starting the day with intentional gratitude as a way to short-circuit negativity before it starts.
    From Western novels as an escape hatch to unexpected hugs from kids, from box breathing to pecan pie, the guys trade stories of how thankfulness shows up in real life—sometimes messy, sometimes humorous, but always transformative. With family gatherings looming, they offer encouragement to embrace both the people you love and the people who stretch your patience, not as problems to solve but as relationships to nurture.
    The takeaway? Joy rarely arrives by accident—it’s cultivated, like Greg’s turkey, with intentional care.

  • Following the ND Compass The Stages of Relationship Progression with Dr. Jill Corvelli
    Nov 10 2025
    Today, Dr. Stephanie and Barb talk with Dr. Jill Corvelli about the ND Compass charting stages of relationship progression for ND couples.
    Stages of Relationship Progression:
    • Romance

    • Power Struggle

    • Stability


    • Commitment

    • Co-Creation

    About Our Guest:
    Jill Corvelli, PhD, LPC, is the creator of ND Compass, a structured methodology designed to
    support neurodiverse couples in relational healing. With over a decade of experience working
    with hundreds of couples in thousands of sessions, she has developed a systematic approach that integrates Liberating Structures, Differentiation, and Somatic Self-Energy Activation into a phased, neuroaffirming therapeutic framework.

    Originally developed to stabilize couples during the Power Struggle stage of relational
    development, ND Compass has expanded to support couples across all five stages of relational growth.

    Dr. Corvelli is a University Supervisor at Northwestern University’s Family Institute, where she
    trains and mentors graduate-level clinicians. She is experienced in Internal Family Systems
    (IFS), EMDR, and Ketamine-Assisted Psychotherapy (KAP), and has extensive experience
    integrating neuroscience, somatic work, and relational models into therapy.
    As a national trainer and consultant, she teaches therapists how to bridge the gap between relational stabilization and deeper inner differentiation work, ensuring that neurodiverse couples experience developmental growth in a way that is accessible, paced for their nervous systems, and structured to honor their unique lived experiences.
