We’ve got something a little special for you guys this time, since Ivy is still living that couch surfing life for now and won’t have a recording space for another couple of weeks. Autumn’s boyfriend Jake has filled in as a guest host for this episode about neurodivergence in committed relationships.

Do you ever feel like you’re hard to love? Well, if you’re any flavor of neurospicy you probably know exactly what it’s like to feel as though you’re either too much or not enough, or maybe even both simultaneously. While some aspects of neurodivergence can feel like superpowers, it’s also true that living as a neurodivergent person in a neurotypical world requires active management and can leave us feeling more than a little disconnected from other people. Join Autumn and Jake as they discuss the lessons they’ve learned over their decade-long relationship about how to cope with the fear of being hard to love and how to navigate the challenges and benefits of being neurodivergent in love.
