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.

Trailblazing the Aspie World with Daniel Morgan Jones

Today, Dr. Stephanie talks to Dan of the Aspie World! Are we still allowed to use the term 'Aspie'? Dan talks us through his autism identification and how that led him to build one of the first platforms on social media about adult autism.

Disclaimer: Today is not a faith-based podcast, but exploring different expressions of Adult Autism/Asperger's from those with lived experiences! You will hear Dan's own worldview in self-expression.
About our Guest in his own words:
Embracing Neurodiversity: My Journey with Autism and ADHD ✨By Daniel M. Jones - The Aspie World

Hello friends,
I want to share something deeply personal—something that completely shifted the trajectory of my life.
At 26, I received a formal diagnosis of Asperger's Syndrome (now Autism Spectrum Disorder), along with ADHD, OCD, and Dyslexia. That moment wasn't about becoming someone new; it was about finally understanding who I always was.
For years, I silently battled confusion, overwhelm, and social exhaustion. Masking my discomfort to "fit in" affected my mental and emotional health deeply.
A Diagnosis Isn’t a Label—It's a Lens.It provided clarity, showing me that I'm not broken; I'm wired differently. Discovering neurodiversity helped me celebrate my differences and recognize my strengths—creativity, hyperfocus, analytical thinking—as true assets.
This revelation inspired me to start The Aspie World, supporting thousands globally in navigating neurodivergent journeys. Our differences drive innovation, empathy, and inclusion, making humanity richer.
Remember, your diagnosis is just the beginning of a beautiful, empowered chapter. You are capable, valuable, and not alone.

Thank you for joining this journey.

With gratitude, Daniel M. Jones Founder of The Aspie World
