Listen Later

School meetings can stir up a lot of emotions for parents — including overwhelm, confusion, anxiety, and uncertainty. You’re worried about your child's rights, accommodations, and educational success in an ever-changing landscape. In this episode of the Beautifully Complex podcast, I’m sharing some practical and hard-won wisdom on setting the foundation for successful school meetings.

Join me as I share personal stories and insights, exploring the importance of submitting your parent input ahead of time, understanding the structure of these meetings, and cultivating a collaborative mindset. These strategies are not just about surviving the meeting but turning them into a platform where your child's strengths are celebrated and their needs are understood.

Listen in for step-by-step advice on creating a neuro-affirming environment that promotes success and confidence for your child. I'll guide you through the crucial elements that foster teamwork between you and the school, all while reinforcing a sense of hope and progress.

With experience as a parenting coach and mindset advocate, I am devoted to helping parents like you build a supportive, understanding ecosystem for your neurodivergent kids. Tune in and let's work towards transforming challenges into pathways for success together.
