What People Are Saying

About Speaking …

“Laura presented information, provided time for personal reflection, and then guided a robust discussion. Parents expressed their gratitude and their feelings of not being alone on their journey. At the end, one of the parents piped up ‘Laura, we need more time with you!’ I highly recommend Laura Black as a speaker and guide.”

“I got to be a beta reader for this lovely book. Black is wise and compassionate, and in every page of this book, it’s clear that her goal is to help parents change in positive ways, so that they can be the best version of themselves. There’s a lot of practical advice, distilled from her own experience as well as interviews with professionals, parents, and individuals with disabilities. It’s a short book, with manageable chapters, so even if you’re in the thick of parenting crisis, you can make your way through.”
