Why Invest in Parenting + Autism [The Course]?
Parenting is not intuitive, and an Autism diagnosis can make it feel extremely overwhelming (and isolating).
If between moments of extreme joy and bouts of intense laughter you experience frustration and uncertainty you are in the right place (and you are not alone), welcome to a place where we "get it"!
When you're stumped by the day to day challenges, it can feel hard...no impossible, to parent confidently.
Curve ball after curve ball, where do you even begin?
Yes, there's beauty in raising a neurodivergent (Autistic) child, but without a plan even the most invested parents experience overwhelm.
That's where this course comes in.
