My first time guest William Schroeder is an expert on neurodivergence not only because he is a mental health therapist, but also because he has walked that path himself. What are the challenges facing men who are ADHD or have Asperger’s…especially when it comes to relating to women? More importantly, how can you overcome those challenge and thrive?
Well, the first question to ask is why the term “neurodivergence” has been in the media more often in the last few years. Next, it seems like everyone’s attention span is shorter since COVID. How much of neurodivergence is nature vs. nurture? And what is the difference between ADD, ADHD and Asperger’s, anyway?
How transparent should we be about neurodivergence with other people, say, girlfriends or even bosses? How can ADHD men excel in relationships with women?
On the other hand, what if neurodivergence seems to be wrecking my chances with women? How are people affected by changes in how ADHD and Asperger’s are clinically defined? I mean, it’s not really a death sentence to our masculinity and ability to attract women if we’re neurodivergent, is it?
And regarding the term “neurodivergence” itself, is it too broad a label? How many men go undiagnosed…and what if this podcast episode itself starts making us wonder about that? And here’s the kicker…how do we identify women who are neurodivergent and manage relationships with them?
