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.Copyright MHNRN, LLC Higiene y Vida Saludable Psicología Psicología y Salud Mental

  • We Remember that Differently...So Who is Lying?

    We Remember that Differently...So Who is Lying?
    Sep 29 2025
    Today, Dan & Stephanie try to cover a difficult topic using stories that can happen with neurodiverse couples and weaving in the story of Elizabeth Holmes/ Theranos after seeing the documentary on HBO Max about remembering differently, different priorities, and lying to oneself.
    Often, the couple remembers something differently (more often than not) and gets stuck in the weeds on whether a fact is true or not true instead of solving the actual problem or coming up with a future solution from hindsight learning. Many of our couples get stuck in what is sin, what is a lie, when is this a character flaw or issue?
    Stephanie began the discussion by setting up some Gottman research that states 69% of couples' issues are perpetual and unsolvable, so what do you do?
    In neurodiverse couples, you can guarantee that you will remember situations and events differently.
    You can count on the two of you to have different perspectives and priorities- what do you do?
    Looking at the definition of a lie:
    General Definition:
    A lie is generally defined as a false statement made with the intent to deceive someone.
    It involves making a statement that the speaker knows to be untrue, to cause the listener to believe it is true.
    Lies involve the intention to deceive or omit something so as not to have a penalty or consequence.
    What to do?
    After listening to the documentary The Inventor: Out for Blood in Silicon Valley, Dan and Stephanie arrive at different places where they believe Elizabeth Holmes (no relation) is lying with intent. Is she lying to herself? Stuck in dreams or expectations that will never be? Lying to others? What do you think?
    What do you do when you remember differently and need to solve a problem, or you have differences and wants and needs and priorities?
    Dan and Stephanie also talk about the perspective gap and learning from it, and how to stay relational when you disagree.

  • For Every Action ... Mad & Meltdowns & Maybe even Mopey

    For Every Action ... Mad & Meltdowns & Maybe even Mopey
    Sep 17 2025
    In this episode of Just the Guys, the hosts — joined by a new guest, Kevin — tackle the important and nuanced topic of anger, meltdowns, and their impact on relationships. Drawing from their own neurodiverse experiences and relationships, they explore whether “meltdown” and “anger” are interchangeable, and how these emotional states affect not only the individual but everyone around them.
    They discuss how to recognize the line between frustration and a full meltdown, using vivid metaphors like pilots ignoring warnings, or weightlifters knowing their limits. The group reflects on the critical role of recognizing when you can still listen to reason versus when you’ve spiraled beyond control — and the consequences of both states.
    The conversation highlights how meltdowns are not always loud or angry; they can also manifest as emotional shutdowns. Regardless of form, every reaction has an impact on spouses, children, and the relational climate. The guys discuss the helplessness, fear, and even trauma that partners can feel in the wake of repeated meltdowns, and how chronic incidents can lead to hopelessness in relationships.
    Importantly, they emphasize the necessity of repair and introspection. Repair involves accountability, understanding the harm caused, listening to feedback without defensiveness, and working to prevent future incidents. They remind listeners that repairing trust is a team effort — built on grace, openness, and hard work — and that even if meltdowns stem from autistic traits, the behavior and its consequences still require ownership and restoration.
    The episode closes with a reminder that meltdowns and their impacts cannot simply be brushed aside — they must be acknowledged and addressed, because every action has an impact.
