Neurodiversity is not THE only Marriage Challenge

  • Summary

  • Heather Parks has been in a neurodiverse relationship for over 25 years, and lives in Devon, UK with her husband and four children. Neurodiversity was unknown until 2012 when it exploded into their lives in the midst of a mental health crisis which affected every family member. Ill from the persistent stress of trying to keep everyone afloat, desperate to find solutions and losing hope that things would ever get better, Heather embarked on a journey in which she recovered herself and rebuilt connection firstly with herself and then in her relationship, family and beyond. After 8 years supporting families discovering and navigating neurodiversity, Heather certified with MasterCoach in 2020 before becoming a Positive Intelligence ® Coach. In 2021 she gained the ICF Accredited Certificate in Body-Oriented Coaching with The Somatic School in London, UK.

    Heather coaches individuals struggling in their neurodiverse relationships using a nervous system approach of safety and curiosity so that they can reconnect with themselves and create conscious, loving connection with others... so they can be themselves too!
    Natalie Roberts lives in the UK with her husband Pete. She’s been married for 25 years and known about neurodiversity joining in with it for 10 of those, when her husband discovered he’s autistic.

    Frustrated and depressed by toxic online groups, a lack of hope and virtually no solutions that actually worked in real life, Natalie took a different path. Led by her social sciences background and inspired by her incessant curiosity to find a way where there is seemingly no way, she busted neurodiversity relationship myths, reversed symptoms of Cassandra Syndrome and began to thrive in her relationship again!

    Professionally, as an accredited and award-winning Relationship Coach, Natalie coaches individuals who are struggling in their neurodiverse relationship to reverse the individual and relationship impact of unknown neurodiversity so that they can be true to themselves and feel empowered to make decisions about their present and future that are positive and hopeful.

    In 2020 Heather and Natalie co-founded Loving Difference to bring hope and a way forward for neurodiverse relationships to more people. Loving Difference has an online home which combines empowering coaching and a friendly community with step by step guidance to be you again and flourish, with the company and encouragement of others navigating the same challenges. Heather and Natalie also co-host the Myth Busting Neurodiverse Relationships podcast.
