Testimonials from event attendees, exhibitors and partners

I found this conference really interesting! As a social work graduate, I have noticed that a number of young people I support have a diagnosis of ADHD, however this conference highlighted that I didn’t have a full understanding of ADHD. I really enjoyed the panel and discussions around ADHD and trauma. I also went home and re organised my fridge following Carrie’s presentation!!!! Overall, really enjoyed the conference and would definitely look at going again next year 🙂

Just want to say how valuable the day was and all the different areas spoken about for ADHD. As a 30 year old male, I’ve struggle my whole life knowing i was different but only diagnosed this year. It has been a big year for me, and my mum and partner attended with me to gain greater understanding too, which is awesome for them and me

Price of conference was reasonably priced. Great venue. Easy to park, discounted parking was appreciated on a Saturday. Diverse speakers – so participants would definitely connect to the topics. It would have been great to hear from someone in ADHD WA I am new on this journey as a parent and would love to know what they offer. It was great hearing from a GP and would have liked more information on medication vs non-medication response. As GPs in WA will be potentially diagnosing students I would be curious to hear more. Enjoyed hearing from a parent vs teachers perspective with Symone.

As a subscribing member I hear of events. This has been so valuable, even though I have attended a few similar I always learn something new and reawaken and affirm knowledge and understandings I had known but had not connected with recently. I would appreciate the opportunity for questions and discussion with the presenters. I found the whole day immensely interesting. Thank you for a fully worthwhile day.

I came to this as an OT working in adult mental health (public system) and I came along to learn more about ADHD and update my knowledge base. I also have friends who have kids who are recently diagnosed ADHD. The variety in this conference was great and I definitely learnt a lot . I felt like an outsider in not having ADHD personally or in my children. Olwen was definitely my favourite . Thank you

All speakers brought additional knowledge and experience with neurodiverse students. The transition to high school presentation was very practical, as I believe that many students are underprepared when entering high school and trying to process and retain an overwhelming amount of information and processes. Speaking to presenters during break time was very beneficial.

Very insightful and interesting. This information / conference needs to be available to all teachers to better support ADHd children. Thank you!

As both a psychologist and adult with adhd, this conference exceeded my expectations and I took something away from each speaker. Thank you for organising this wonderful, neuroaffirming day of learning. I feel more empowered and empathetic towards myself and the individuals I work with that have ADHD.

The content was very informative, especially the rejection sensitivity dysmorphia and the link with anxiety. The information tables were a great way to find resources

The booklet was fantastic, more space for notes would have been great. Speakers were exceptional. I really appreciated hearing, in particular, from the first perspective of the speakers who were ND themselves. I got so much out of this conference to apply in both my role as a parent of ND teens as well as my job as an ECT. I will definitely be returning in 2025. Thank you for organizing such a helpful and informative conference.

Wonderful events organiser and education/resource provider. I’ve been working with My Spirited Child as a speaker & presenter for 2 years now and I keep on coming back because it’s such a heartfelt and genuine community.

AuDHD Social Worker
Every year, we sponsor the My Spirited Child ADHD Conferences in Auckland and Christchurch because, quite simply, they’re the best ADHD conferences in New Zealand. The ACFB Fund is proud to stand behind an event that brings together parents, professionals, and neurodivergent individuals in such a meaningful, uplifting way.

The team of ladies running things behind the scenes are absolute stars. They make everything feel smooth, organised, and effortless, even though we all know how much work goes into pulling off something of this scale. Their passion shows in every detail.

The audiences are always incredible too. Warm, welcoming, supportive, and genuinely excited to be part of the day. You can feel the sense of community the moment you walk in. The atmosphere is fun, the sessions are engaging, and the whole event has this unique spark that keeps you coming back.

It’s honestly my favourite time of the year. If you ever get the chance to attend or support this conference, I can’t recommend it enough.
ASHLEY C.
CEO of A Change for Better
My Spirited Child was an amazing organisation to speak for due to their inclusive approach recognising the importance of representation. My Spirited Child prioritises bringing Neurodivergent speakers to the forefront as the experts of their own experience which I believe sets them apart from other organisations.

It has been a delight to work alongside the My Spirited Child team, adding value to parents snd families – I look forward to continuing a fruitful relationship with amazing individuals and leaders in the space!
