Your Host
Here's more about me and why my you don't want to miss this workshop

As the founder of Pathways in Life, I bring over twenty years of experience as a certified life coach specializing in working with families. In addition to my extensive background in this field, I have spent 25 years supporting families through Special Olympics Oregon and advocating for my sister who has an intellectual disability and my daughter who has a learning disability. This firsthand experience has given me valuable insight into the unique challenges parents face as their children approach adulthood. The goal of this conference is to provide you with the tools and information you need to navigate these challenges and reduce feelings of stress and overwhelm.
