We've been so excited to see a bunch of new followers join our account lately. Hello, lovely to meet you all!

Slide 2: We know connection can feel hard. You want to connect with people, make friends and have fun......but the social stuff feels exhausting. Conversations feel hard, you feel worried about doing or saying the “wrong” thing. We get it and we’re here to help.

When did social connection become a “luxury”? We see every day how vital connection is for young people and their wellbeing.

Proposed NDIS changes could significantly cut funding for social and community participation.

Connection isn’t optional. It’s essential.

If you these cuts will impact you or your family, we encourage you to share your experience and have your voice heard. Link in our bio for where to submit.

Last week we had a room full of educators re‑thinking school engagement.
Together with Richard Crawshaw from , we used the Kawa Model to map what’s getting in the way of “river flow” — and how we can all better support student wellbeing. We especially loved reinforcing the message that it never is about “fixing the student”.

Thank you to everyone who showed up with curiosity, and a genuine commitment to inclusion. We hope you continue to bring the curiosity back to your various roles, and find the 'flow' with your students.

We have recently partnered with an amazing organisation, and we're keen to help them with their learning and support needs for the year.

We are not rolling out a pre-existing training package...we are collaborating with them (incorporating 90+ voices) to help us understand what they need. Based on this information, we will be designing a bespoke learning package...how exciting is that?

Grounded in all the things we value - neurodiversity-affirming, trauma-informed, relational and incorporating genuine connection. And of course with occupational therapy frameworks sprinkled in there!

Can you guess what kind of organisation we have partnered with? Only wrong guesses below!

Why do group programs help young people build social confidence? Because social confidence is built with others.

Experienced occupational therapists run neurodiversity-affirming groups that support young people aged 14-25 to connect with others.

We don’t teach social skills. We offer a safe space to practice being themselves.

Contact us now to see if we’re the right fit for your young person.
