Looking forward to presenting a case study of our project, Guidance for Life, Work and Career at the @thecdi.bsky.social annual conference. The amazing artwork for our project has been created by the hugely talented @laurasorvala.bsky.social

I have had the pleasure of 2 visits to @uofglasgow.bsky.social in the past 24 hours for the #ESRCFestival I was presenting on AI and the future of work yesterday, in the context of career guidance and then this morning I was back attending the excellent @uofgpolicy.bsky.social event on childcare.

I'll be speaking at the thecdi.bsky.social National Conference 2025 on 18-19 November in Birmingham. Join me for the opportunity to connect with fellow careers professionals and enjoy two days packed with inspiration, learning and networking. Book your place here: ow.ly/irxK50TAbzq

A busy day ahead of promotion for my book. At midday I'll be with the @thecdi.bsky.social for a Meet the Author Webinar, then I'm recording a podcast about all things practitioner-led research with my long-term friend and collaborator Uuganaa Ramsay. Looking forward to a day of good conversations!

(And with each trip my learner's Gaelic is slowly improving!)

I am in this summer's Dyslexia Scotland magazine, Dyslexia Voice, talking about the journey to identification for children who have co-occurring conditions such as #autism and the often later identification process in #gaelicmediumeducation #GME

As a parent of neurodiverse children I'll be attending and participating in as much as I can to learn more. The stereotypes and misconceptions misled us for so long, not realising that what we were seeing in front of us, from day 1, was neurodiversity.
