This episode is all about the concept of summer schedules for our neurodivergent students. Your child needs a summer schedule, even if you don't think they do! Most importantly, this episode journeys through the STARFISH acronym to provide some different ways to use your child's summer schedule to help them be more flexible, independent, solution-seeking, all of the things that are part of our STARFISH acronym. A summer schedule that you create WITH your child can help them be more of ALL of the things that we work on at Starfish Social Club!

Autism Awareness Month has just come to an end. This episode is all about why I don't talk about Autism Awareness Month, and why I think it's actually a disservice to our kiddos.

This episode is all about what’s really getting in the way of your child or teen making and keeping friends.

This episode is all about how and why I went from being a go-to social skills expert to not teaching social skills at all! Now I focus on teaching our kids the things that REALLY matter when it comes to making friends, and I’m on a mission to help others do the same!
