WORK WITH ME

Misfit Connections is a place for honest conversations about parenting, family, life, relationships, growing up, starting over, and all the messy stuff nobody really teaches us how to handle.

Most topics are offered in the following formats:

  • COFFEE TALK
    A relaxed community conversation around one real-life topic. Come listen, talk, ask questions, and leave with practical tools.
  • KITCHEN TABLE
    Bring the conversation home. Gather your people around the table for a fun and real 90-minute conversation hosted in your home.
  • WORKSHOP
    More time to dig in, practise, ask questions, and actually work with the tools. Usually 2–3 hours or offered as a multi-week series.
  • CONFERENCE / KEYNOTE
    A bigger-room version of Misfit Connections. Engaging, practical talks for conferences, schools, organizations, workplaces, and community events.
  • PRIVATE CONVERSATION
    Practical, one-on-one support built around what’s actually happening in your home. Together, we look at what’s working, what isn’t, and what tools could make a real difference for your family.
    Available as a 60-minute visit, a more in-depth 90-minute visit, or a 3-visit support package that gives us time to try the tools, see what happens, and adjust as needed.

Pick the format that works for you.

WHEN THE TEXTBOOK DOESN’T FIT

Not every kid fits the same mould.

The Misfit Method isn’t made for one kind of kid or one kind of family. It starts with the human in front of us, what’s actually happening, and the tools that person needs.

The goal isn’t to make your child fit the mould. It’s to find the tools that work with the human you have in front of you.

Subjects include:
Autism • ADHD • Neurodivergence • Special Needs • Anxiety • Learning Differences • My Child Just Got a Diagnosis, Where Do I Start? • How Do I Adapt My Tools Without Letting Everything Slide?
