🌟 IT’S FINALLY HERE! Emotion Explorers Club is LIVE! 🌟

After a LOT of creating, writing, filming, designing (and talking to my computer 😅), I am so excited to finally be able to say…

My Emotion Explorers Club online program is officially open! 🎉

I created this program to bring a little piece of my counselling room into your home — helping children understand their brain, body and emotions in a way that feels playful, safe and easy to understand.

Over 10 weeks, children and their grown-ups will explore things like:

🧠 How their brain works
❤️ Why big feelings happen
🚨 Why Amy, our alarm brain, sometimes sounds the alarm when we’re actually safe
🌱 Coping and regulation strategies
💡 Executive functioning
💭 Worries, thoughts and flexible thinking
🤝 And most importantly… understanding themselves rather than feeling like there is something “wrong” with them.

This isn’t a course where children are expected to sit in front of a screen and be “taught”.

It’s an adventure to do together.

There are videos, activities, missions, workbook pages, practical tools and lots of opportunities to talk, connect and learn together.

And because every child is different, parents can also reach out to me along the way with questions.

I really hope I’ll see lots of little Emotion Explorers (and their grown-ups!) inside the adventure. 💛

👉 Enrolments are now open via

Now, until the 6th Sept 26: $680

Just to put the value into perspective, one 50-minute session with me in clinic is $156.

And… fingers crossed all the technical bits behave themselves! 🤞😂

Let the Emotion Explorer adventure begin! 🚀🧠🌈

I’m not even sure how to put today into words.

I’m feeling genuinely overwhelmed (in the very best way) by all of the kind messages, comments, and feedback after speaking at the ADHD Conference today. Standing in front of 460 people was something that once would have felt impossible, and yet today… it just felt right.

When I started Calm Kidz Program, I simply wanted families to feel seen, understood, and supported. I wanted parents to know that they weren’t failing, and I wanted children to know that they weren’t “too much” or “not enough.” To stand in a room full of educators, parents, and professionals who connected so deeply with that message was incredibly special.

I’m also really proud of myself. Not because everything was perfect, but because I’ve realised how far I’ve come. There have been plenty of moments of self-doubt, hard work, and wondering if I was making a difference. Today reminded me why I keep going.

To everyone who came to say hello, shared your story, laughed, cried, asked questions, or simply told me that you felt validated… thank you. Those conversations are what I’ll remember most.

And thank you to everyone who bought my new book! I still can’t quite believe it… we completely sold out! That is just amazing, and I can’t wait for the books to make their way into so many homes and classrooms.
Stay tune for the launch of my online course…
Thank you to my amazing daughter who helped me out today!!

My heart is so full tonight.

Thank you for believing in Calm Kidz Program and for allowing me to be a small part of your journey. ❤️

💙 TASMANIA, WHO'S YOUR LOCAL HERO?💙

Every ADHD journey has someone you'll never forget.

The teacher who said, "He's not too much, he's exactly enough," and meant it.

The OT down the road who made your daughter feel capable instead of broken.

The café owner who didn't blink at the meltdown by the door, who just brought over a glass of water and a kind smile.

They live right here, in our community. And they probably don't think of themselves as heroes.
But to your family, they changed everything.
This year, we'd love to celebrate those everyday heroes.

At the Tasmania My Spirited Child ADHD Conference, we'll recognise one local Neurodiversity Champion on stage, not because they asked for recognition, but because someone in their community wanted to say:
"Thank you. You made a difference." 💙
How to nominate your Local Hero:

1️⃣ Follow My Spirited Child
2️⃣ Like & Share this post
3️⃣ Tag your Local Hero “[Name], my ______ Hero”, and share why they deserve to be recognised.

Tell us what they did, how they supported your family, and why you'll never forget them.
The most heartfelt and meaningful story will be chosen as our Tasmania Local Hero 2026 ✨
Our selected Local Hero will receive:
🎤 Recognition on stage at their MSC ADHD Conference
📣 A feature post across MSC socials
🎟 x1 Conference Ticket (for the one you nominate)
🎉 Plus a 10% discount code as a reward, in case you want to bring a friend or pass it on to a colleague.

And because kindness deserves to ripple outward... we'll also have a little thank-you gift for our community.

Keep an eye on our Local Hero journey... you won't want to miss what's coming. 💙
Tag your hero below. Let's fill the comments with gratitude. 💙

Exciting news!

My new children’s book "The Emotion Explorer Club - All About Your Brain & Big Feelings" will be available on Amazon from next week.

This book has been created to help children better understand their big feelings, their brain, and what happens inside their body when emotions feel too big to manage. Through gentle, playful, child-friendly brain education, kids will meet characters like Amy the Amygdala, Aha Archie the Thinking brain and Remy the Memory Brain and learn that big feelings are not “bad” — they are messages from the brain and body.

It’s designed for children, parents, carers, counsellors, educators, and anyone wanting to help kids feel more understood, supported, and emotionally safe. It's interactive, fun and with lots of visuals!

I can’t wait to share it with you.
