…or even if you are still querying your autistic identity. What better way to work it out? 😊 Link in bio for details. Bookings open now! Hi, my name is Jo (@josephine_moon) and I am your retreat facilitator for our Autistic & ADHD Retreat weekend, happening here on the Sunshine Coast in Qld in October. I am a former teacher (still registered and currently homeschooling my son), a former professional writer, editor and project manager of non-fiction, former founder and chair of an animal welfare charity, former massage therapist, animal therapist, Reiki teacher, dog walker, pizza maker, superannuation administrator... and a LOT more. I am a lot of 'former' things :) I like to think all of my former selves are there to offer me wisdom and experience but I think most of them time they convince my ADHD self to simply go ahead and start new ventures... usually at 11pm at night :) Both my Autistic and ADHD selves have spent a lot of time competing with each other and I have spent a long time in prolonged stages of burnout, once even resulting in an official diagnosis of chronic fatigue syndrome in my 20s. I have learnt a lot, and I still have a lot more to learn. That's why I'm passionate about brining together other AuDHDers on retreat, so we can celebrate our unique selves, spend time learning how to prevent burnouts and adopt real time practices to help ourselves stay healthy. It's also incredibly soul healing to be with other AuDHDers: our #neurokin. If you'd like to learn more about retreat, you'll find a link to the website in bio, or feel free to send me a message. Jo 💖 So pleased to be able to present Reimagining Autism today @nationaleducationsummit in Brisbane. Thank you to all the enthusiastic teachers who were there to learn more about Autistic myths, Autistic truth and cultivating compassion. I am hopeful for a kinder future for our Autistic kids. Yeah, we do! ⭐️🦓⭐️ Link in bio. Autistic and/or ADHD teens are welcome on our next Autistic and ADHD Retreat, 8-9 October, Montville mountains of the Sunshine Coast. They just need a guardian to stay on site with them :) What better way to set up your teen than with the knowledge on how to prevent and recover from burnout for life. Link in bio for details. Bookings open now! Who can come on our Autistic and/or ADHD retreat? My wish is that every teacher, therapist, parent, expectant parent, grandparent and friend could read this book! Fellow @penguinbooksaus authors, Kate and Mandy, have said ALL the things out loud that need to be said about raising kids with disabilities and support needs and wrapped them up in love, laughter, fury, hugs, inspiration, kindness and hope. It’s like a huge warm hug, a cup of tea, a hot meal, a big old cry and a thousand moments of ‘yes, me too!’ and ‘yes, I’m not alone!’ For those of us working professionally in the fields of therapies and in education for kids, this book should be in our University curriculum. Five magnificent stars! (Actually, six! 😉)⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Really, we could make some sort of board game out of it 🤣 Just imagine!
