WHAT YOU'LL WALK AWAY WITH:
AWARENESS
A clearer understanding of how your unique wiring interacts with the world — and how to reduce daily friction
DIRECTION
A path that works to support your focus, energy, and executive function in everyday life
BELONGING
Practical strategies to create meaningful relationships without draining your social battery
CLARITY
A renewed sense of clarity, confidence, and direction — to shape a life that truly fits you
BALANCE
A calmer nervous system and simple, sustainable tools to ease overwhelm
So, it’s time to mark your calendar. Get a babysitter, book a hotel, clear your schedule—whatever it takes to give yourself this much-needed reset.

A NOTE FROM YOUR HOST
Debbie Steinberg, LMFT
Dear Friend,
We find ourselves in uncharted waters. These times are especially stressful—the political landscape, the loneliness epidemic, the mental health crisis, and financial strain all converge to make life feel like a pressure cooker.
Even on a good day, the world isn’t designed for unconventional thinkers with ADHD, anxiety, learning differences, or those on the autistic spectrum. In stressful times like these, that friction—of feeling like a square peg in a round hole—only intensifies.
That’s why we’re coming together with the world’s top experts to calm our nervous systems, connect in a like-minded community, and find hope. Together, we’ll discover new ways to optimize daily life so we can flourish—even now. We can’t wait to see you there.
Warmly,
Debbie Steinberg, LMFT
Founder, Bright + Quirky
