Empower Listening and Learning at Home and School

Back by Popular Demand: We’re Thrilled to Announce the Return of Our Highly Acclaimed Workshop...

Empower Listening and Learning at Home and School: Executive Function and Genuine Engagement: Back to School Edition

Led by Sarah Ward, M.S., CCC/SLP, and Elizabeth A. Sautter, MA, CCC

This is an extended live two-hour (plus Q and A) Zoom session for busy parents and teachers who want to learn more about what they can do at home and in the classroom to help their neurodivergent (e.g.,autistic/ADHD/anxious/sensitive) child thrive in all aspects of life.

Equip Yourself for Back-to-School Success With Neurodivergent Children: An Encore Workshop for Parents & Teachers

It’s time, as a parent or educator, for both you and your neurodivergent (ADHD, autism, 2e, LD, anxious, dyslexic, etc.) child or student to redefine what it means to listen, learn, and engage in the ways that work best for them!

Let’s make this school year the most successful one yet.

We will provide mindset shifts and practical suggestions to reduce your overwhelm you have about helping neurodivergent children transition back to school and transform those worries into unlocking your learner’s full potential.

What's New This Time?

Last time we had over 425 people attend the workshop LIVE, and this time we want to reach even more of you and take more time for in depth explanations, examples and a Q and A session!

Just in time for back to school, we will spend more time providing you with:

More In-Depth Information: Dive deeper into strategies and examples tailored to our C.A.R.E model to lay the foundation for academic and social success.
Longer Duration: We’ve extended the workshop to ensure you have ample time to absorb, ask questions and apply the valuable insights and techniques.
More Time for Questions: We understand the importance of addressing your specific concerns. With additional Q&A time, you'll get personalized guidance and answers to your most pressing questions.

Let’s Learn Phrases A Neurodivergent Child Has Probably Heard That Won't Help:

“Pay attention!”

“Listen to me!”
“Stop being so distracted!”

We get it- supporting a child or student with a learning disability requires out of the box thinking and can leave you feeling confused or overwhelmed as a parent or teacher. We know you’ve tried:

Yet, none of it seems to work, and you can’t help but feel defeated. Maybe you have said to yourself, “Why can’t they just sit and listen, and do what I am asking of them?” Maybe you find yourself comparing them to other kids or trying to get them to comply with traditional standards that make them feel ashamed.

We are here to help. Our workshop is interactive and easy-to-follow which will allow you to participate in learning real-life strategies for helping neurodivergent children live a better overall life.

Our Workshop Will Give You the Tools and Mindset You Need to Help Your Learner Thrive!

What You Will Gain:

Explore the True Nature of Listening: Distinguish listening from common misconceptions and understand its multifaceted aspects.
Understand the History and Evolution: Learn about the shift from whole-body listening to whole-body regulation for genuine engagement and processing.
Practical Strategies in Executive Functioning and Regulation: Enhance children’s listening, processing, memory, and retention skills.
Embrace Neurodiversity: Create inclusive learning environments both at school and home.

Prepare for a Successful School Year:

Setting up your childs’ environment and mindset is key to a successful school year. This workshop will focus on:

Creating a Sense of Belonging: Establish an inclusive atmosphere where children feel connected and valued.
Promoting Well-Being: Strategies to support emotional and physical health.
Building Resilience: Tools to help children cope with challenges and develop perseverance.
Laying the Foundation for Success: Practical tips to foster academic and social achievement.

This is all possible. That’s why we put together a workshop that will give you the tools you need to make those dream images about the social and emotional state of the neurodivergent child you have in mind come to life.

FAQ: You Might Still Be Wondering…

I'm busy on Wednesday, September 25th, during the live workshop streaming time. Is it worth purchasing so I can receive lifetime access to the recording, even though I can't attend the live seminar?

We get it; money is tight and valuable. But there’s no price tag on the happiness of knowing you are prepared to help a neurodivergent child succeed. The recording will give you everything you need to know without actively being there on September 25th, which you can replay and listen to as many times as you like. We’re confident you’ll be happy with your choice to purchase despite being there for the live version.

I attended the workshop on February 27th, where Sarah and Elizabeth presented on this topic. Is it worth it for me to attend and purchase this new, upcoming session on Wednesday, September 25th?

Here’s what we can tell you: this workshop will dive deeper into the strategies and tools we taught you last time; it will be an extended session with more Q + A time. If you are coming to learn about a new topic, it’s not worth it to register for this workshop. But, if you want more time to ask a question or get more information on what you learned last time, it’s a good idea to attend.

I'm not a parent. Does that mean this workshop might not be for me?

You’ll be surprised at how satisfied and nourished you will feel with our nutritionist-designed cleanse. Most people tell us they were nervous they’d be hungry and were so surprised that they never felt hungry! However, it will probably help your mind to have a gameplan for if you start to feel like you need food. The best bet is a clean, organic, easy-to digest smoothie, small meal, or snack like cucumbers, celery, or a small salad.

Now It's Our Turn To Ask You the Questions

Are you ready to feel more connected to your differently wired children than ever before? Do you want your neurodivergent learner to build confidence and feel more confidence in school and home?

Now’s the time to invest in yourself and your child or student. Register here to purchase our workshop on Wednesday, September 25th, at 9:30 am PT / 12:30 pm ET. For just $67 you can make this the year that makes a mark in the journey towards a better life for neurodivergent children.
