Heather Parks, a neurodiverse family coach with firsthand experience in a long-term neurodiverse relationship, challenges common myths about relationship change. She emphasizes that improvement doesn't solely rely on partners changing, but instead on self-awareness and interrupting the defense cycles we contribute to. Parks explores behaviors like fight, flight, freeze, and fawn as responses to stress and encourages listeners to focus on their roles in these patterns. She also discusses the healing practices that can calm the nervous system and promote personal growth for healthier relationships.
