Producer and artist manager Christine Cox joins the podcast to share her experience as the non-ADHD partner in a long-term marriage. She discusses the frustration, judgment, and emotional labor of keeping life on track amid ADHD-driven chaos, plus how therapy, humor, journaling, and boundaries have helped.
Christine also talks about defending her spouse in social settings, the impact of smartphones and stimulation, and why curiosity and empathy from others would make a big difference. She’s working on a book, Life with an Escape Artist, and can be found on Instagram @MissChristineCox.
