Episode 347: Uniquely Us—Neurodivergence and Marriage with Dr. Stephanie Holmes

Send us Fan Mail

What happens when one spouse is neurotypical and the other is neurodivergent, or when both spouses have different neurodivergent needs? Rebecca sits down with Dr. Stephanie Holmes, co-author of Uniquely Us, to explore the realities of neurodiverse marriage, including emotional regulation, mental load, accommodations, gender expectations, and why traditional Christian marriage advice can sometimes make things harder. Together, they unpack how couples can extend grace without enabling, take responsibility without sacrificing themselves, and build a marriage that works for the actual people in it—not some imaginary version of Christian marital perfection!
