The Art of Adulting
A simple way to help your autistic young adult build a life they love—while you find peace again.
BOOK A FREE DISCOVERY CALLYou love your autistic young adult more than life itself. But you worry.
Can they succeed in the work world?
Will they ever be able to handle life on their own?
What happens when you’re not around to help them?
 Right now, they’re stuck. Stuck in their room. Stuck on their screen. Stuck in a loop of anxiety and avoidance.
And let’s be honest—sometimes you feel stuck too.
You’ve tried everything: therapy, tutors, programs, advice from well-meaning friends. But nothing’s working.
Every day feels like an uphill climb to help them take action.
You’ve been doing your best to encourage them, and even though you’d rather not remind or correct, sometimes it feels like those are the only tools you have.
I get it.
As a mom of six neurodivergent young adults, I’ve been in your shoes. The worry. The guilt. The endless “what ifs.”
But here’s what I’ve learned after 40+ years of parenting and thousands of coaching calls with families like ours:
They can learn to handle life. They can earn money. They can thrive on their own.
They just need the right kind of support—and so do you.
Introducing The Art of Adulting
A guided roadmap to help your autistic young adult grow in confidence, independence, and self-trust—while you become the calm, confident mentor they need.
This isn’t about changing who they are.
It’s about uncovering the strengths already inside them—and giving both of you the tools to:
Recognize what’s really driving their behavior.
Build emotional resilience that lasts.
Take small, consistent steps toward a self-directed future.
Leave behind the frustration, guilt, and exhaustion.
Step into teamwork, trust, and growth.

You don’t have to do this alone. Each week, we’ll work side by side to apply these tools to your family’s real-life challenges and create steady progress together.
“You are such a big help to our family, Lynn. Our daughter is doing much better. She’s taking post-secondary schooling (third try) and doing very well this time, plus enjoying it. Most importantly, our whole family’s connection with her is stronger than ever.” – Laurie 💜
“Lynn listens to my son and lets him talk without judgment. That means everything to him. He leaves their sessions with a smile on his face and a plan for the next day. And that means everything to me!” – JP 💜
“When I came to Lynn for help, I felt completely overwhelmed with how to help my daughter systematically learn the skills she’d need as an adult. Lynn held my hand, we took a deep breath together, and we started one step at a time. I’m still on the journey, but I sleep better at night knowing I have Lynn in my corner. She is truly a gift!” – Suzanne 💜
“Lynn has had a profoundly positive effect on our autistic son’s emotional state and development. She helped him build his confidence and capability, as well as our family’s overall emotional health and stability.” – John and Alana Barker 💜
Why It Works
Traditional methods focus on control—rewards, punishments, and rigid plans. But what they miss is lasting growth from the inside out.
The Art of Adulting is different.
It helps them replace self-criticism with self-trust—and become their own best coach.
It stops the anxiety loop—so uncertainty no longer turns into self-doubt.
Built for families like ours—clear, simple strategies that create real results.
What Families Are Saying
Thomas and Paula
“I’ve learned to talk to myself as a friend and not as a bully.” (Thomas)
Â
"We both take a breath now. And we’re on the same page more often. Our household is doing remarkably better.” (Paula)
Andrew and Mary Beth
"I wanted help for Andrew. I was eager to try anything, because nothing was working. 25 years of books. It just didn't click. I can't do this alone, and he can't do it without help. He's had his therapist for the last 15 years.
 He needs more. I needed more.
 I didn't know where I could turn. I needed ideas, and I needed someone who's been there and knows what they're talking about, not just someone with initials after their name. I want somebody who's lived it, and to know that we're not alone."
Sally
"I just want to thank you. You're a font of information and positivity and progressiveness about the future. You give hope to everyone in the group, whether their child is on board or not. It will happen someday and that is just wonderful."
