Forget the fairy tales. In real life, Happily Ever After is about finding a way to thrive, even when faced with intolerable situations.

Using the dysfunction of a Homeowners Association (HOA) as a metaphor, Dr. Marshack explores the creative and sometimes radical adaptations she has seen in NeuroDivergent relationships. You’ll hear about couples who live in separate houses, use structured agreements, and even move apart—all while remaining married.

The truth is, the flaws in these adaptations are nothing compared to the tragedy of squeezing the life out of yourself to maintain a rigid, unrealistic model of marriage. Learn why workability, not perfection, is the key to reclaiming your life.
