Get together. Get it done. Get a little more on top of life.
What is The Fundamentals Class?
The Adulting Club is a space for neurodivergent adults (ADHD, ASD, etc.) to get together and get their “too hard basket” done.
This is a 2-hour in-person workshop for neurodivergent adults in Adelaide, built with your brain in mind.
If you’re autistic, ADHD, or otherwise neurodivergent, you’ll know that a lot of everyday adulting systems were never designed for how your brain actually works. Knowing what needs doing and actually getting it done can feel like two completely different worlds.
That gap isn’t a personal failing. It’s just a mismatch.
The Adulting Club is here to help close that gap — together.
This is not one of those productivity workshops full of tips you’ll never use. We’re not here to hand you more homework. We’re here to help you understand yourself a little better, and then actually get things done in the room, right there with support.
The first part of the class is about identity, mindset, and why the boring bits of life can feel so disproportionately hard. The second part is where we stop thinking about it and start doing it, together.
You can bring whatever has been sitting in your too hard basket for far too long — the thing you keep avoiding, the thing you keep meaning to do, the thing that seems simple to everyone else but somehow takes up way too much brain space.
The co-working section of the event gives you space to work on the things you’re struggling with, or continue with the identity work we’ve covered as a class, so you can get past the things that are holding you back and into the work that makes life feel just a little more doable.
How long does the class go for?
The class goes for two hours.
The first hour is focused on identity and mindset — why the boring bits of life feel so hard, why we resist them, and how we can shift the way we approach them with less resistance and less self-judgement.
The second hour gives you time to either keep working on that mindset work or get started on your too hard basket with support around you.
Where does the class take place?
Classes are held at the Ngutungka West Lakes.
What should I bring?
Bring your laptop if you need it, your charger, your phone, your diary, a notebook, or that box of photos you’ve been meaning to sort out for six months.
Basically, bring whatever it is you want to get done, and whatever will help you do it.
You’re also welcome to bring fidget toys, blankets, cushions, snacks, and drinks to make yourself comfortable.
Ngutungka West Lakes has tea and coffee facilities available, and you’re welcome to help yourself at any time during the session.
What time is it?
Most classes are held on a Monday night between 6.30–8.30 pm.
There are also occasional classes on Wednesdays and weekends.
If there’s a time you’re desperate to attend, reach out to Victoria-Rose via email and she’ll do her best to make that time available in a future session.
What is parking like?
Parking around the venue is limited, but all parking is free.
There are a few spaces behind the building, though some may be reserved at times, and there is also street parking available. Disability parking is located at the back of the building.
For the easiest park, we recommend the Westfield Shopping Centre car park opposite Carl’s Jr, as this is usually the simplest option for finding a spot.
Do you have companion card tickets?
Yes. You are more than welcome to bring someone along to support you.
Companion card tickets are available at checkout. All you need to do is show your card on the night.
Do I need a formal diagnosis to attend?
Not at all.
This space is open to anyone who identifies as neurodivergent, whether you have a formal diagnosis, are waiting for one, or are simply exploring.
Is this a therapy or support group?
No.
The Adulting Club is an educational workshop and community space. Victoria-Rose is an educator and advocate, not a therapist. This is a practical, peer-supported session, not a clinical service.
Will I have to speak in front of everyone?
No.
Participation is entirely at your own comfort level. You’re welcome to listen, contribute when you feel like it, or just be in the room.
What is the environment like?
The room is set to 22 degrees and has windows out to the street.
The session is held in a quiet library room, with flexible seating and a small group size of max 15 people.
It’s designed to be low-pressure, sensory-friendly, and comfortable enough to actually settle into.
What if I need to leave early or step out?
Completely fine. No explanation needed.
What will actually happen during the class?
Victoria-Rose opens the session with a workshop-style educational segment on how neurodivergent brains experience the world, and why getting things done can feel disproportionately hard.
From there, the night moves into guided exercises designed to help you actually make a start on your own too-hard basket.
This is done through your own reflections and insights, not through someone telling you what to do or how to do it.
The Adulting Club is about empowering you to guide your own path through the boring bits — with structure, support, and a little less self-criticism.
Is this event recurring?
Yes.
This event is a recurring Fundamentals class for people who want to get started, build momentum, and stop feeling like life is a constant pile of unfinished things.
If you want to keep going and go deeper, there is a 5-class, 10-week course called Get It Together.
That course goes further into who you are, procrastination, identity, stopping the spiral, and actually becoming someone who can get through the boring bits without feeling so stuck.
Victoria-Rose also runs standalone classes like Get It Done, which is a longer co-working class with more time to focus, work, and get the things in your hard basket done.
There will also be one-off classes and more courses coming soon.
