Struggles with communication & connection

and suspect that neurodiversity is at the heart of it?

One's relating expectations are largely based on their assumptions, which are largely influenced by their neurological profile AND mostly invisible. We need to turn these invisibilities into visibilities and once in our awareness cultivate understanding and compassion about our differences. We can then use the ND Compass to find each other. 

Finding one another through the ND Compass

there are things we can't change, and there are things we can...

Communication, connection, compassion and a productive approach to conflict are changeable and the targets of the ND Compass.

How to gain the most from this course?

the fastest change happens with couples who commit to the ND Compass process and adopt the ND Compass rituals into their lives

The ND compass scaffolds first order changes in connection, communication, compassion and new ways to engage during conflict that give way to deeper changes. There are daily and weekly skills work that must be practiced in order to ritualize these changes in your relating.
