I wanted to get these dates on your calendar because we have two new LIVE trainings coming to the community. 📅 October 30 Your Young Adult Doesn’t Need More Job Listings — They Need a Path 1pm ET | 12pm CT | 11am MT | 10am PT If your young adult is applying for jobs without knowing what actually fits them, more applications may not be the answer. In this short training, we’ll look at how to help them identify a path—so they can move forward with more clarity and confidence. 📅 November 20 A Simple Strategy to Help Your Child Get Started and Follow Through 1pm ET | 12pm CT | 11am MT | 10am PT If your young adult knows what they need to do but struggles to actually START, we’re going to dig into one of the most practical strategies you can use. We’ll talk about how this can support: ✅ Task initiation ✅ Focus ✅ Follow-through Both trainings will be live here in the community. Check the calendar for details. And if anyone is in Colorado… I’ll also be speaking at the Neurodiversity Expo in Denver on Sunday, November 8. https://www.nextstepsneurodiversity.com/events/denver-co-2026 My topic will be: How AI Can Help Unleash Neurodivergent Potential I’m excited to share practical ways AI can help reduce friction, support executive functioning, improve communication, and help neurodivergent people better access their strengths. If you’re attending, let me know — I’d love to see some familiar faces there. Lots happening over the next few weeks, and I’m excited to bring more practical tools and support into this community.

What’s ONE thing you’ve learned that you wish another parent had told you 5 years ago? It could be about: - Autism, ADHD, or neurodivergence - Executive functioning - Motivation - School - Employment - Independence - Communication - Knowing when to help vs. when to step back There are parents in this community who may be dealing with something you’ve already been through. What’s one lesson, strategy, or perspective you’d pass along to them? Drop it in the comments — and if someone shares something that resonates with you, jump in and let them know.

Your first step is simple: Introduce yourself in the comments below so we can welcome you, support you, and help you find your starting point. Copy and paste this prompt: My name is: My child is: tween / teen / young adult / adult child The biggest challenge we are facing right now is: What I want most for my child is: One thing I hope to get from this community is: After you post, reply to at least one other parent with: “You’re not alone. I’m glad you’re here.” This is how we begin building community. 😊
