Dad Starting Over

Cassie is back. She's an occupational therapist who works with neurodiverse kids, she lectures at the college level, she'll have her PhD next May, and she has severe lifelong ADHD herself. She doesn't dance around any of it.

By my estimate the majority of the men in my community are neurodivergent in one flavor or another. This conversation is about what that actually does to a marriage.

We get into:

The man who had a business, a full social life, and six things going at once, gave all of it up to get married, and lost himself inside a year
Why handing your wife the job of being your only source of stimulation breaks both of you
Rejection sensitivity: why a look on someone's face can take you down three floors before your brain catches up
Time blindness, and why "I've just been busy" doesn't land the way you think it does
Hyperfocus, energy, and deep connection as actual strengths
The difference between ADHD hyperfocus and an autistic special interest
Three conflict tools you can use tonight: regulate before you speak, name a return time, apologize once
The breakfast change Cassie calls the single biggest thing she did

If you're the guy whose garage is full of hobbies you used to love, this one is for you.

What is Dad Starting Over?

Welcome to the Dad Starting Over podcast! "Starting Over" means different things to different people. It could be that you're newly divorced and starting over fresh with a new life. It could be that you're still married and wanting to hit the reset button and finally do things right within your marriage. Whatever your story may be, you're in the right place.
