Build Your Job Search Blueprint
Liz Green
OTR/L; CEO Link Consulting
Not getting call-backs? Feel like applying is just shouting into the void?
You’re not alone—and you don’t have to keep spinning your wheels.
This session will help you define a job search strategy that actually fits your brain and your energy. No burnout. No guesswork.
You’ll learn how to:
Identify what's getting in the way (it’s not just your resume)
Set realistic, spoon-friendly job search goals
Use tools like Goal Glow to stay focused without overwhelm
Choose next steps that make sense—whether it’s refining your pitch, building confidence, or networking your way.
Perfect if you're ready to stop applying blindly and start building a job search that works for you.
Join Dr. Robin Dickinson, neurodivergent family physician and founder of the Neurodiversity Clinic, for a practical conversation about how medical and mental-health factors overlap with neurodivergent experiences. Dr. Dickinson will unpack how anxiety, depression, and OCD can show up differently in autistic or ADHD brains—and what screening tools help move care forward fastest.
You’ll also learn how common medical issues like sleep apnea, thyroid imbalance, low iron, or B12 deficiency can mimic attention or energy problems, and what labs or checks to request when focus or motivation suddenly drops.
You’ll Learn:
🧠 How to differentiate between anxiety, depression, OCD, and neurodivergent traits
🩺 What medical conditions can cause “executive-function” symptoms and how to rule them out
🔍 Which lab tests and screenings to start with—and how often to recheck
💬 How to advocate for yourself in medical settings when you suspect something deeper is going on
Getting a neurodivergent diagnosis can feel overwhelming—but it can also be the start of better self-understanding. Join Emily Boshkoff, PsyD, a neurodivergent psychologist and diagnostician, for a practical conversation on:
What the diagnostic process looks like
Common myths and challenges to watch for
How to make sense of a new diagnosis
Steps you can take after being diagnosed
Ways to talk with family, school, or work about your diagnosis
Resources for ongoing support
Navigating self-diagnosis
You’ll leave with:
A clear roadmap of the diagnostic pathway and what to expect at each step
A short checklist of smart questions to ask an evaluator/PCP/insurance
A 30-day post-diagnosis action plan (supports, accommodations, follow-ups)
Two quick conversation scripts (family/friends • school/work) with disclosure options
A mini resource list for ND-affirming care, benefits, and peer communities
A reflection prompt to track strengths, energy, and support needs over time
This session explores the foundations of neurodiversity and how it applies to you. We’ll explore different neurotypes—like ADHD, autism, dyslexia, and more—and how traits often overlap. You’ll learn why common strategies might not work for your brain (and why that’s not your fault), and start identifying what actually helps you function and feel your best.
✨ You’ll walk away with:
A clearer understanding of what neurodiversity means (beyond just labels)
Language to describe your own thinking style and traits
Insight into why burnout, overwhelm, or struggle may be happening—and that it's not a personal failure
Reflection prompts to help you connect the dots between your lived experience and your brain’s design
This session is a gentle, empowering starting point—no pressure to “fix” anything, just space to understand and begin building a life that fits you better.
