Look for the Glimmers || Growth Spurt

Sep 11, 2025

The start of high school was a major leap for my daughter with special needs, magnified by her transition from a charter school. We both faced heightened anxieties about fitting in and managing sensory challenges. Our preparation included school visits and crafting a mental touchstone for her: to look for glimmers of light amongst potential darkness, akin to stars in a big, open night sky.

If you're navigating your own tough transitions, remember that seeking glimmers can be a powerful tool. Whether it's finding brief moments of support from friends, appreciating a compliment, or small personal victories, these glimmers can help guide you through. Thank you for being part of this collective progress, and may you find your own glimmers in the midst of challenges.
