Monday, June 16 from 7:00 PM to 9:00 PM- Spectrum Speakers: Meet the Life Coaches: A life coach is like a personal trainer—but for your mindset, goals, and overall life direction. They’re someone who helps individuals gain clarity, build confidence, and create actionable plans to achieve personal or professional aspirations. Unlike therapists who focus on healing past traumas, life coaches primarily look forward, guiding people to unlock their potential and make meaningful progress.
In this session you will meet three effective life coaches who work closely with their autistic clients – specifically Tom Iland, Mo Bailey, and Luke Lorefice.
