Now Enrolling for Next Community Group: Autism in the Workplace
October 13, 2022
Good morning,
I wanted to share two gems from this week's community group. I had two big AHA moments when others were sharing their experiences:
1) Someone mentioned their autistic children were under-challenged and overwhelmed in school. The combination of these two ideas struck a chord with me in a major way.
2) Another said they've learned that extreme independence is a way they mask. All I could do with this one was a wide-eyed stare while nodding my head.
These community groups have proved to be a profound way to connect to others who are all vastly different and surprisingly similar. It has given voice to many who have felt unheard and helped others realize we aren't really as alone as we think we are.
I'd love for you to join us for the next open community group which will meet on:
Tuesday, October 18 from 12:00PM - 1:30PM CDT
The topic is Autism in the Workplace and we will be covering:
How to navigate the interview process
If/when to disclose diagnosis to employer (and how this affects those who are self-diagnosed)
Tools and resources for finding success with your job
Developing friendships at work
LASTLY, one of my favorite parts about the group is what happens AFTER the session. All interested session members are given the opportunity to be added to a text group through a free app called Whats App to continue the conversation. It makes my heart so happy to see that group members from previous sessions continue to message each other every day with thoughts/questions/stories. There is truly something beautiful happening here!
If you can't make this particular date/time, check out my website for other available group sessions.
I'm also available for 1-on-1 coaching sessions to help you navigate any challenges you may be facing as an autistic adult.
Sending love and peace,
Taylor
