Autism and the Quest for Friendship (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798894540368)

Written with vulnerability, insight, and a touch of raw honesty, this book highlights the top 25 lessons the author wishes they'd known-first, as an individual receiving a later-in-life autism diagnosis (HIM), and second, as a partner navigating marriage with a neurodivergent spouse (HER).

This journey isn't just about understanding autism; it's about understanding connection-why it's so elusive, what it means to those on the spectrum, and how it can be nurtured in meaningful ways.

Packed with relatable anecdotes, hard-earned wisdom, and a myriad of practical tools, this guide invites readers into the real-life challenges and triumphs of building relationships when autism is part of the equation. Whether you're navigating life as a neurodivergent individual, in a partnership with someone on the spectrum, or simply seeking to understand a loved one better, this book offers compassionate advice, actionable strategies, and an authentic voice that resonates with hope and possibility.

At its heart, this book celebrates growth, resilience, and the profound beauty of learning to bridge the gaps between isolation and connection-together.
