Telling Your Story: How To Make Your Voice Heard and Advocate For What You Need
Does the thought of asking for what you need, for you or someone you care about, fill you with dread? Do you feel like you don’t have the confidence or the right words to get what you ask for? Are you telling yourself there’s no point even asking because if you do, you’ll be humiliated when it all goes horribly wrong and spins out of control?
If you answered yes to any of these questions, join ADHD coach Erik Anderson for a compelling, interactive workshop that challenges our ideas of what is and is not impossible. Learn how narrative advocacy can help you move beyond negative stories and magical thinking to create workable solutions and measurable success.
