POV: You see Neuroverse for the first time and instantly become Jim Carrey in 1994.

Do you know an Adult 18+ with Autism, OCD, Down Syndrome, AUDHD, ADHD or other Neurodiversity? Come hang out and make a friend (or a few!)

Join us every Friday for NeuroVerse over Zoom at 4:30pm EST for some fun social interactive games and a chance to win prizes while we have in-depth social skills conversations 👍

DM me for more info or click the link in bio to register!

See yas there! 👋

Growth doesn’t always feel big in the moment. Sometimes it’s just showing up, trying again, and trusting that the little steps add up. Keep going. It’s working, even when you can’t see it yet.
