| Telling My Parents, "I'm Autistic": Masking, Sensory Needs & Validation | 10 sept. 2025 | 00:26:58 | |
Hey friends—today I’m getting personal. I share what it was like to tell my dad and mom about my autism diagnosis at 50, how internalized ableism whispered “you’re not autistic enough,” and why believing kids is one of the most powerful ways to lower anxiety. We talk masking that looked like “success,” sensory differences that shaped my days, the “my regular” story (Hi, Dairy Queen), and the moment validation turned fear into relief. If you’re a parent, therapist, educator—or navigating your own neurodivergent identity—this one’s for you. What you’ll learn

| Problem Sizing: 3 Ways 'Big Deal Vs. Little Deal' Harms Neurodivergent Kids | 19 févr. 2025 | 00:23:14 | |
Have you ever told a child, “It’s not a big deal” or “You’re overreacting”?

| Navigating Special Education Law Like a Pro: What Every Parent & Educator Needs to Know | 27 nov. 2024 | 01:08:24 | |
It's an honor to interview Pete Wright. Pete has been practicing law in the area of special education since 1978, and he and his wife are the founders of Wrightslaw. In today's episode, Pete and I chat about his own personal story and why he became involved in special education law. He also answers 9 frequently asked questions about education rights. 1) What does the law say about the difference between a 504 and an IEP? Is one better than another? 2) Can the school refuse to provide an IEP or a Section 504 Plan to a child who is making good grades? 3) Most people know that they are able to request a new evaluation every three years. What if the school says they don't believe the student needs another evaluation? Do you have to wait 3 years before requesting another evaluation? If a parent doesn't agree with the evaluation results, does the school have to agree to an IEE? 4) What if the school isn't following the 504 or IEP consistently? 5) What if the goals, objectives, and data collection don't make any sense? Ex. unclear and data collection is confusing 6) Are children who attend private schools, religious schools, and charter schools eligible for special education and related services? 7) What do the laws say about bullying at school? 8) What does the law say about Restraint and seclusion? 9) What do the laws say about suspensions for disruptive behavior and what if the behavior is related to the child's disability? What if the school believes the behavior is not related to the child's disability but the parent does think the behavior is due to their child's disability?
