Navigating Neurodiversity: Personal Journeys and Insights

Welcome to Season 5!

Michael Daniel didn't discover he was autistic until his mid-30s. What followed—unmasking, burnout, and a cascade of miscommunications with his neurotypical wife Elise—almost cost them their marriage. So he built something: the NeuroTranslator, an AI app that bridges the communication gap between autistic, ADHD, AuDHD, and neurotypical partners.

In this episode, Jodi and Mona Kay sit down with Michael and Elise to talk about late autism diagnosis, the painful unmasking process, and what it really looks like to fight for a neurodiverse relationship.

This is Part 1 of our conversation. Tune into Part 2 to hear how the tool works and how it's already changing relationships worldwide.
