I chat with Libby Clark, from the Cassandra Uncaged Podcast about her marriage and family life before and after the diagnosis, the difference the diagnosis made and how she does self-care in her life. I hope her story encourages you.

Let me introduce you our guest. Libby has an intimate walk with Jesus, and has been married to Steve for 41 years, and they have 7 children. The first 32 years were chaotic confusion, but following Steve’s diagnosis of Asperger’s (ASD1) 9 years ago, they have an amazing new trajectory in their relationship, and together they have learned insights that bring hope to neurodiversity. Addressing the individual over the institution, Libby brings hopeful insight into healing the heart. Wounded people wound, but healed people heal. Libby utilizes a simple technique she developed called F-L-T.

Summer is meant for day trips and spending time in the sun and on the water. One way to make your time outdoors easier is creating a go-bag or mom bag. Think of it as your arsenal of goodies ready to handle sensory challenges and normal daily needs. I share what is in my bag and along with items I bring for my own self-care.

You enjoy dinner parties, family events, concerts or travel but your spouse prefers his friends, small events, his special interest events and solitude. Your friends are doing double dates or vacations together and it seems a far away possibility. Sometimes we put our interests and needs for community on hold because our spouse is unable or does not want to join us. With creativity, you can find a way to enjoy life and be part of a community.

The dictionary defines mindset as a "fixed mental attitude or disposition that predetermines a person's responses to and interpretations of situations". So it is wise to examine our own mindset, especially since it can impact being a wife, mom and our follow through on self-care.

Back in season 1, Episode 45 I shared being on the struggle bus with my sleep for YEARS. I began using night-time blue blocking glasses but it wasnt until I listend to Thaddeus Owens that I had an operating guide for my whole day for better sleep. My previous glasses, my husband said made me look like a Miami Vice Drug Queen so I went on the search for feminine, attractive glasses. When I saw Heidi Sime's (Thaddeus wife) circadian glasses, I was hooked. I purchased these on my own and have used them almost every evening, including when I am out in public. In this episode, Heidi and I will chat about her journey on improving her physical and mental health along with her passion to help women to have better sleep. And a big thank you to Heidi and Thaddeus, use code CHRISTNA10 for 10% off their gorgeous and functional circadian glasses.

My Guest: Heidi Sime

Support is a vital need for moms in neurodiverse families and for any woman. You have small and big dreams. A cheerleader to encourage your journey is a blessing, especially when others may try to discourage our dreams. If you are seeking cheerleaders in your life, here are three steps I've taken to bring encouragers and supporters into my life.

Two opposing facts can be true. You can love the idosyncrancies of your spouse and kids, laugh at their corny jokes and appreciate the unique view of the world. Also you can be stressed from the verbal olympics on simple topics, unexpected emotional outbursts any time of the day that rattle you and lingering hurt over words or actions without empathy. By spotting these 3 signs, you can begin taking steps to process your feelings and look for strategies.
