PD that is functional and actionable is my type of learning!

That’s exactly why I agreed to participate in the Blue Ridge Literacy Collective Spring Conference. I am so thankful to be presenting with stellar educators, such as , , , , .edventures, , .lit.joy, Lisa Ruso, and !

This isn’t inspiration without implementation. It’s practical and clear with actionable steps!

If you want PD that actually shifts your literacy block — this is it.

Today is a special day around here! 👀

It is International Cochlear Implant Day! 🙌🏾

It’s been 69 years since this amazing technology was introduced as a tool for individuals with hearing loss. This technology has truly changed and adapted to help create the best outcomes over the years.

While we are celebrating cochlear implants, we realize that they do not have the same benefits for all. Providers should discuss the benefits and potential drawbacks of cochlear implants with all individuals and their families. A cochlear implant won’t be a great fit for all people.

SHARE this post to help educate others about what a cochlear implant and tell about all the things that individuals with cochlear implants can do. 💕

Check out these accounts to see day to day life with a cochlear implant.

You see smiles, cupcakes, and an exit sign. ✌🏾

I see two women who have worked HARD to get to this point in life.

Two years ago, we got phone calls a day a part letting us know we no longer had our full time jobs. This post is not about that horrible time or the people involved.

This post is about showing that life moves on. What felt like my entire world crumbling eventually taught me the biggest lesson on how STRONG I actually was.

I learned about restraint, how to be skillful with my words, the power of silence, and the freedom that comes from letting others draw their own conclusions.

Two years, later and I’m thankful for my favorite ex-coworker turned best coworking friend! I’m so proud of what we’ve been able to build. How we’ve been able to show up for each. How neither one of us has let a crazy period in life define our stories or careers.

Celebrate your people who show up and show out with you! So yes cheers to two years since we’ve been fired! I look forward to celebrating many more (and with cupcakes)! 🙌🏾

Kentucky, THANK YOU!

It was such a fun week at ! For each presentation, you guys came engaged and ready to learn. No matter how many times I’ve gave these presentations, it’s a joy to connect with new people and foster different ways for us to show up in our clinical work.

The amount of people that came by the booth or stopped me in the hallway to have more conversations around social media ethics was incredible!

A true highlight for me was meeting and chatting with ! As a lover of DCC on Netflix, it was so lovely to hear her talk about her love for her daughter, , and how she wanted to share some of my content points with her. 😳

5.5 hours of speaking and 3 presentations later I’m leaving with my heart full. 🫶🏾

Bonus was spending to with THEE Marie Ireland who is such a wealth of knowledge and hanging out with my favorite ex-coworker Lyndsey!

If you’re looking to connect for future events, send me a DM!

Up next is Türkiye with ! 🤩

It’s about that time when acceptance, waitlist, denials roll out. I love sharing this post every year for people to remember that they are not alone!

People are shocked when I say “I was waitlisted for grad school.”

Being waitlisted was NOT reflection of the therapist I would become or even how my program viewed me. There are many factors that go into admissions decisions.

I know that now. But back when this happened, I felt so ashamed and embarrassed that I was not admitted during the first round. This led to me putting A LOT of undue pressure on myself to prove that I belonged and deserved to be there.

I believe in being fully transparent with you guys. Everyone posts about their acceptance letters, but few people want to talk about the rejection and waitlist.

Is rough?
Does it sting?

YES!

Is it the end of the world?
Will this define you as a professional?

NO!

Remember, you can get rejected and still go on to be amazing! Once you are in, do your best, BUT do not feel as though you have anything to prove.

In the words of , DELAYED is not DENIED 👏🏾

Raise your hand if you were waitlisted or rejected from a program 🙋🏾‍♀️

Chat GPT was spot on today! 😂

I love all the details with the cochlear implants, mircophones, and otoscope! The hair, nails, and minimal jelwery are definitely me! 🙌🏾

Here's my prompt: "Create a caricature of me and my job based on everything you know about me.”

Selecting the right PD for your staff is no easy task. District leaders and clinician-leaders I know this matters to you.

If you’re approving PD or you’re the one advocating for it behind the scenes, you already know that not all professional development translates to better practice.

I work with districts, private groups, and attenddees at conferences to strengthen clinical decision-making to align listening, language, and literacy services for more optimal outcomes.

This work isn’t about adding initiatives without support.

It’s about improving how clinicians think, decide, and lead within the systems they’re already in.

📅 Now booking speaking engagements for 2026
👉🏾 Leaders: explore topics and secure dates.
👉🏾 Clinicians: share this with your director or coordinator.

When an emergency situation occurs, it is overwhelming trying to remember all of the things to take with you. Being prepared with a hearing device go bag can take the pressure off of families by having it all in one place. The last thing anyone needs is a device failure!🎒

SWIPE RIGHT to see the 5 essential items recommended that families grab. ➡
🔅Spare batteries
🔅Backup processor or device
🔅Hearing accessories
🔅Medical information
🔅Storage case

BONUS TIP: Have a battery pack incase you need to recharge your devices and you do not have power!

✨ SHARE THIS POST FAR AND WIDE! ✨

We should all be aware of those who claim to be "The Great and Powerful Oz" of a specific content area. Why? ⤵️

BECAUSE NO ONE KNOWS IT ALL!

Social media can be a great place to get surface level knowledge. It provides us with the basics in order to explore more. Social media should also come with a huge caution sign. ⚠️

Even experts have limitations to their knowledge.

It is great to have your favorite accounts and people to learn from, but remember that they are still learning and growing as well. 🌻

You are not alone in this journey of growth! Tag someone that needs to hear this. ✨

I cannot believe it has been FOUR years since I’ve gone full time in my own business! 😭

Time has truly been flying by. I wrote a blog post detailing how I quit my last clinical job after 3 months.

To think, I used to go to work and be physically sick due to stress. I was losing money going to work!

But how I could leave?! It had only been 3 months. We are conditioned to think that we have to contend with mistreatment and push through it. I am here to say we absolutely do not. Being in a helping profession, people want to use your love of the work, clients, and students as a weapon to hurt you.

No pay check is worth your health (mental or physical)!

quote “I am not a victim. I am a VICTOR.” still lives rent free in my head. Our experiences and how others choose to perceive us do not define who we are as a person.

If someone wants to make you the villain in their story, LET THEM! I’d rather have my peace than care how someone else wants to characterize me.

Have the past four years been easy? NO! Being a business owner comes with its own ups and downs. I’m still forever grateful and thankful I’ve gotten to build this business. I’m thankful to YOU for being in this space and community with me. 💕

Comment “BLOG” for the full blog post. ✨

We are taking it back with a little anatomy and physiology about the ear! 👂🏾

Knowing the parts of the ear are beneficial to all! Understanding the parts of the ear help us to know how they assist us with hearing and perceiving sound. Professionals should work to educate families on the parts of the ear in order for them to fully understand all treatment options.

✨Terms to know✨
👉🏾 Outer Ear
👉🏾 Middle Ear
👉🏾 Inner Ear

Look at each slide to see the components within each part of the ear! Understanding the anatomy is critical to providing good care. Health literacy is knowledge and power.

I’ll hop on this trend! It’s so important to spend time reflecting on where we started and how far we’ve come!

2016 was a lot year for me!
👏🏾 I went to the Super Bowl! As a football girlie, that was a HUGE deal!
👏🏾 I turned 21
👏🏾 I finally figured out what I wanted to do in life and applied to grad school

10 years later I look back and truly am thankful for all the wonderful things I’ve gotten to do in life! 💕

Tell me about your 2016!
