The Gifts of Personal Growth
Parents raising differently wired kids know there is no such thing as autopilot or phoning it in—our kids demand a level of relentless attention, support, and focus we may never have anticipated. Yet, when we make the conscious choice to truly lean in to who our kids inherently are and set the intention of doing what it takes to help them thrive, our own personal development is sparked in fulfilling, powerful, and beautiful ways. In this talk, Debbie explores the unexpected gifts differently wired kids bring into our lives when we’re willing to accept who they inherently are, and shares ideas for how to foster our own personal growth spurts, which ultimately leads to happier kids and more connected families.

Assessment Journey
Susan will focus on the world of assessments from her view as a professional that has assessed many students in the school setting, as a Mom that decided what assessments were needed to support her children and the steps she took when assessments didn’t seem to hit the mark — and finally how she views assessments as a personal that learns differently.
Susan's book and parent supports can be found at www.beyondok.ca
Susan supports through our Parent Membership Community as well.

ANXIETY AND Learning Struggles
When kids are diagnosed with learning issues, emotions aren’t often taken into account, but more often than we realize kids who have trouble learning often have anxiety. How do we know if our child is suffering from learning differences and anxiety, and what should you do about it?
No slides for Amanda’s talk (that’s not how she rolls…listen to her talk you will get the joke)
