Welcome to the community! You can call me Bess!

Bess Life ND. thrives to be an interactive community guided by yours truly. While also offering support services to those in need – bringing together both shared & unique experiences in navigating disabilities & neurodivergencies.

After accumulating a plethora of experiences (including learning to navigate NDIS services, as a late-diagnosed adult predominately navigating it alone) for the better part of 40 years – I decided to put that knowledge to good use and curate my experiences as a Support Worker (amongst my neurodivergent peers) alongside my life goals. And in a way that aligns with the broader community – by sharing said knowledge & experience.

Granted, this was something that was growing in the background for around four years, since before my official diagnosis in March, 2022. Once I recognised the things along the way which helped me find my feet, with my own self-discovery – I realised how I could transform the journey into a positive experience for others suffering similarly, too.

If you're after Support Work services from a lived experience perspective, I'd be more than happy to oblige! Located in the Northern Suburbs of Melbourne, Victoria – however, if there are supports I can offer via online services, this is something we can also look into should you require this kind of support.
