065: Success After High School for Students with ADHD, with Elizabeth Hamblet

“There needs to be a desire to go to college. Just sending somebody because that's what's expected is not going to be good for that student.”

Hello!

I'm Penny.

I empower stuck and struggling parents to dial down the chaos and intensity and help their neurodivergent kid thrive. You'll parent with purpose and create the family life you crave.

Through my podcast, award-winning books, parent training programs, parent coaching, and parenting summits, I’ve helped thousands of parents raising kids with ADHD, autism, and/or anxiety improve their lives.

I'd be honored to help you, too.
