A Brighter Way Forward

Based on Eliza Fricker’s book A Different Kind of Parenting: Neurodivergent families finding a way through together (Published October 2024), this fully illustrated webinar will take you through the day to day struggles to a more hopeful place.

Using Eliza Fricker’s illustrations and prose, she will share other ways we can find to thrive not just survive.

“Eliza, through some of our darkest times you were one of the few people who spoke sense and gave me and many others the clarity and strength to believe in ourselves and our children and move forward with courage.”

The talk is in four parts:

1. When the wheels fall off.
2. What can we do?
3. Seeing a future.
4. What it could be like.
