Description

Are you tired of feeling all alone in your neurodiverse marriage, and no one quite understanding or believing what you go through?
Would you like a personal shepherdess to guide you OUT of the VALLEYS of neurodiversity…INTO life-giving green pastures — nourishment for your soul?
I was a very sad and confused wife for 32 years, when my husband was finally diagnosed with Asperger’s in 2017. Now going on 40 years of marriage, we have an amazing story to share, and I’ve come out on the other side, victorious.
It’s not that I’ve arrived – it’s that I’m successfully learning how to center myself afresh in Jesus every day, because I need to, every day! There is an enemy that never takes a vacation from trying to feed lies to us. Neurodiversity is challenging enough! We can’t afford to be letting lies in. Come on the journey with me, my Cassandra-friend, and I’ll lead you to green pastures to heal your soul, so that no matter what is happening around you, you can be your healthiest version – who God created you to be. And you might be pleasantly surprised at how others around you respond to this healthy new version of you!
YOU DON’T HAVE TO LIVE THE WAY YOU’VE BEEN LIVING ANY MORE!
Hope REALLY IS on the way. Allow MY breakthrough to make a way for YOUR breakthrough!
Open the curtains, get your song back, and step into your story of origin, adding a joy-filled chapter!
Let’s create a community of thriving (not just surviving) women!!!!
