I have dreamed about this for so long 🥰 and now it's happening thanks to Glow Up Co

For those who don’t know, I'm a solo parent of two incredible neurodivergent kids (Autism + ADHD), an AuDHDer myself, and a dual-registered nurse.

​If you’re a single parent or raising ND kids, you already know the mental load isn’t just heavy...it’s exhausting. The planning, the packing, the decision fatigue, and the endless effort to find places where our kids can just be without judgment!

The concept of a 'holiday' often ended up feeling like doing the same survival work, but in a different postcode and without my normal supports. ​I was so burnt out by the whole process that it gave me the motivation (read ADHD squirrel process😆) to explore different options.

​If you’re familiar with Dr Arne Rubinstein’s Rites of Passage work, you know how transformative it is when we slow down, mark milestones, and create intentional space for our kids to step into their next phase of growth surrounded by community.

So, now I am privileged to work alongside a village on Fiji’s Coral Coast, to run immersive, community-led family experiences designed specifically for AUDHDers, parents and homeschooling families.

​It’s an intentional experience for the whole family:
​🌿 A True Rite of Passage: Real cultural immersion, hermit crab hunting on the beach, connecting with the land and sea (vanua), and letting our kids experience authentic freedom and village connection away from screens and high-sensory noise.

​🛠️ Zero Decision Fatigue: Authentic homestay accommodation, meals, transfers, and cultural hosting are 100% handled. You pay, show up, and let us manage everything else!

​🧘‍♀️ An Actual Reset for You: Zero cooking, zero cleaning, and a relaxed pace in a safe, zero-judgment space alongside other parents who actually understand.

Think of it as the ultimate combination: a connected experience with your children, a cultural immersion and a mental reset where you finally get to just be a parent instead of the event director, chef, logistics manager and accountant ☺️

​We keep these visits intentionally small—(capped at just 6 families for a 5-night stay)
so it stays quiet, low-sensory, and supported.

​If your brain needs a break and this sounds like what your family needs right now, send me a message and I’ll send over the details! 🫶🏼🩷
