Public speaking events where I talk about raising neurodivergent kids
Since releasing Neuroshambles, I have been invited to talk at numerous conferences, special needs parenting events and discussion panels.
As a former stand-up comedian and someone who spends a lot of time discussing neurodiversity, I love being in front of an audience and sharing my lived experience of parenting neurodivergent kids in a humorous, engaging and accessible way – whether that’s online or at a live event.
If you'd like to book me for your conference, SEND session or online event, please contact me. I'm excited to hear how I can work with you to enthusiastically advocate for parents and our autistic, ADHD and PDA kids.
