Eliza Fricker will deliver a talk entitled A Brighter Way Forward
Based on Eliza Fricker’s book A Different Kind of Parenting: Neurodivergent families finding a way through together (Published October 2024) this fully illustrated webinar will take you through the day to day struggles to a more hopeful place.
Using Eliza Fricker’s illustrations and prose, she will share other ways we can find to thrive not just survive.
“Eliza, through some of our darkest times you were one of the few people who spoke sense and gave me and many others the clarity and strength to believe in ourselves and our children and move forward with courage.”
The talk is 4 x parts:
- When the wheels fall off
- What can we do?
- Seeing a future
- What it could be like
The content of this talk is suitable for all to attend and will be recorded. There will be time for questions.
She has published several books, including A Different Kind of Parenting, the Sunday Times Bestselling title Can’t Not Won’t, and the acclaimed autobiographical Thumbsucker.
Eliza offers a range of support for parents and educators on navigating autism and education, including one-to-one consultations, webinars, presentations, a podcast, and the enduring original Missing the Mark illustrations & blog.
