On this episode of Dishing on Divorce, Mandy Barr is joined by Michael Pereira, founder of The Autism Voyage, to explore the complex intersection of divorce, parenting, and raising a neurodivergent child.
Michael shares both professional expertise and personal insight as the father of a son with autism. After his son’s diagnosis, Michael’s life shifted dramatically, leading him to leave corporate America and build a platform dedicated to helping families navigate the emotional, financial, and logistical realities of raising children with special needs.
Together, Mandy and Michael discuss:
• The emotional journey parents experience after an autism diagnosis
• How neurodivergence can impact marriages and sometimes lead couples to the brink of divorce
• Why routines and stability are critical for children on the spectrum during separation
• The importance of financial planning, insurance, estate planning, and long-term care strategies
• How parents can shift from fear and isolation to clarity and intentional planning
Michael also shares how The Autism Voyage was created to provide education, resources, and community for families who often feel alone as they navigate neurodiversity.
This conversation offers compassionate guidance for parents facing difficult transitions as they plan a stable future for their children.
