Accommodating each other, seeing the marriage/family as a system, and sharing the mental load. Breaking down the steps of planning, having a vacation, and returning home from vacation.

Happiness, Well-being, Emotional Processing and the Autistic Brain
10 GIU 2024 · Today's guest has been on the podcast before when we discussed predictive error coding and the autistic brain; Dr. Peter Vermeulen
Peter is the founder, director, CEO, lecturer, consultant, website developer, and secretary. Occasionally, Peter even cleans the office of Autism in Context, the senior Autism lecturer and consultant for Autisme Centraal, and the Chief Editor of “Sterk in Autisme!”, a bimonthly magazine of Autisme Centraal. Autisme Centraal is responsible for autism awareness campaigns and ‘autism friendliness' support activities throughout Europe. He is a Member of the Editorial Board of ‘Tijdschrift voor Orthopedagogiek, Kinderpsychiatrie en Klinische Psychologie” (Journal of Special Education, Child Psychiatry and Clinical Psychology of the University of Leuven, Belgium) (currently Chief Editor of that Journal), a reviewer for Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders; Journal of Intellectual Disability – Diagnosis and Treatment.
When Peter is not presenting, writing, driving or flying around for his job, he can usually be found on one of his 4 bicycles, trying to imitate Tour de France winners, hereby being oblivious to his age and physical state. When tired from cycling, he can be found at home with his wife and their dog (which actually is more a Gremlin than a dog). Or he is playing with his grandchild. Because the Gremlin loves the beach, Peter often spends his weekends at the seaside, savoring seafood and enjoying a good beer as a descendant of a brewing family.

When we have guests on the ASR podcast, they are recognized for their expertise in autism as advocates, self-advocates, clinicians, parents, or other professionals in the field. They may or may not be part of the faith community; having a guest on the broader topic of autism does not reflect complete agreement with the guest, just as many guests may not agree with our faith perspective. Guests are chosen by topic for the chosen podcast discussion and not necessarily in full agreement with all beliefs of the chosen guest(s).
Roadtrippin' & Righteous Relationship Building
3 GIU 2024 · We have been taking many road trips these past four years in the quest to visit all 50 states! We listen to podcasts, and podcasting and learning from podcasts has become a shared activity of connection!
We start our discussion with the real definition of righteousness: returning to Eden and being naked and unashamed. What is an Ezer Kenegdo? Your neurodiverse relationship can be healthy when you first get in the right relationship with God and each other, rule together and not apart, and advance the Kingdom together! Two are better than one!
Do you want your home to be your Eden or where the Chaos Monster lives?
