Neurodivergent Couples & Communication: ADHD, Autism & Real Relationship Strategies with Avy


Listen Later

What happens when two people love each other deeply — but speak completely different communication languages?

For many neurodivergent couples, especially those navigating ADHD and Autism dynamics, communication can be both a struggle and a source of deep connection.

In this honest and practical episode, Greer sits down with Avy — a communication coach and neurodivergent advocate who helps neurodivergent and mixed ND–NT couples build authentic, sustainable ways of connecting.

Together, they unpack real-life communication strategies, mindset shifts, and honest moments that help couples bridge differences, reduce misunderstandings, and create emotional safety — even on the hard days.

In this episode, you’ll learn:

  • How ADHD and Autism shape communication styles in relationships

  • What spoon theory teaches us about energy and conflict

  • Why specificity is key when asking for help or support

  • How “reflecting tone” can transform emotional understanding

  • How curiosity and authenticity foster lasting connection

    Whether you’re in a neurodivergent relationship or simply want to communicate with more empathy, this episode is full of actionable tools and hope-filled insight.
