Neurodivergence in Relationships… 5 hidden signs that your relationship is at risk and what you can do about it, with Neurodiversity Expert Jay Williams

Everyone processes information in different ways, but could differences be playing out in your relationship causing misunderstandings and disagreements. Terms like autism, ADHD, dyslexia, and dyspraxia get banded about but what do they mean and how would you know if you or your partner are affected. And what to do to navigate this? Today we’re joined by Jay Williams, also known as That Dyslexic Guy, a thought leader in neurodiversity advocacy, entrepreneurship, and inclusive innovation. His mission is to help people understand the strengths of Neurodivergence while driving real change in workplaces. We’re going to be looking at: -Why these differences are not problems to be fixed, but rather unique qualities and strengths that we can harness for good! - How our negative thoughts can lead to a range of other negative factors and issues - How misunderstandings over small things can get blown out of proportion unnecessarily into frustration or anger - How understanding neurodivergence can help us recognise why explosive reactions may happen, but that it’s not a justification for a negative reactions - The role of emotional drain or burnout, “masking” behaviours and having the self-awareness needed to understand our needs - The importance of open communication in understanding our different processing patterns and how we may be able to support each other You can find out more about Jay at: https://www.linkedin.com/in/thatdyslexicguy/
