Hey Y’all
I’m Kel
I am 44 years young and live in Queensland, Australia. I have a wonderful partner who is a source of support. Together, we have neurodivergent children aged 9 years to 24 years old. I am also the primary carer for my aging mother.
Completing a Bachelors in Child and Family Studies, and working in the child protection and disability spaces means I possess both theoretical knowledge and practical experience. In addition, I have lived experience in raising neurodivergent children all whilst managing a chronic health condition called Functioning Neurological Disorder (FND).
I love reading and listening about life hacks, self-development, home improvement and task management. I am continually wanting to find tips and tricks to improve lives for those who live with chronic illness and in particular FND.
