Innovation in Accessibility and Inclusion

Ralston’s commitment to diversity and inclusion is embedded in every aspect of ND Outloud's services. Recognizing the often-overlooked needs of the deaf and hard-of-hearing neurodivergent community, ND Outloud provides inclusive coaching options such as ASL interpretation, voice-to-text, and transcription services. This commitment to accessibility ensures that neurodivergent individuals receive the support they need, delivered in the way that best suits their personal preferences and cognitive needs.

Ralston also champions a non-AI-driven approach, emphasizing human connection and personalized guidance. “AI cannot walk in the shoes of our clients,” she said, highlighting the value of human empathy and practical advice over technology-driven solutions. ND Outloud also provides clients with tools to navigate AI in ways that support rather than overwhelm them, empowering users to leverage technology thoughtfully.

Overcoming Traditional Coaching Barriers

Ralston founded ND Outloud to address gaps she observed in traditional coaching methods for neurodivergent adults. Many existing programs rely on rigid applications that, while trackable, may lead clients into “shame loops” when they struggle to meet prescribed goals. ND Outloud’s approach is flexible and responsive, removing these barriers to foster a sense of safety and support, where clients are free to explore their goals at their own pace.

Vision for the Future

Ralston’s vision for ND Outloud is one of inclusivity and empowerment. She envisions a world where neurodivergent individuals can access quality support and resources without feeling pressured to fit into a neurotypical framework. ND Outloud is committed to providing clients with the guidance they need to lead fulfilled, self-directed lives.
