Bear with me as I get a little emotional over here.....
Oh my goodness - 9 years.
Nine whole, messy, magical, heart-full years. 🥹✨
When Simply Spoken first began, I just wanted a place where kids felt safe to try, families felt supported (not overwhelmed), and speech therapy felt like connection - not correction. I had no idea I was building something that would matter this much to so many people… including me.
Over the years, I’ve watched tiny voices blossom, shy kiddos find their spark, and families breathe sighs of relief they didn’t even realize they’d been holding. I’ve seen tears (yep - mine, theirs, all of us 🙋♀️), belly laughs, stuck moments, breakthroughs, and the quiet “little wins” that actually aren’t little at all.
And every day, I am completely blown away that this place exists - and that I get to do this work with the most compassionate, brilliant, goofy-in-the-best-way team. They show up with creativity, patience, and hearts the size of Wisconsin. Truly, they are the magic. 💛
To every family who has trusted us…
Who has cheered, cried, waited, practiced, advocated, and believed…
Thank you. You’ve let us into one of the most special parts of your world - your child 's life- and that is something we will never take lightly.
Nine years later, I’m still surprised (in the happiest, “someone pinch me” kind of way) that this dream turned into a real place full of growth, mess, joy, and hope. And we’re just getting started.
Here’s to more voices, more connection, more celebrating progress - big AND small.
And here’s to every kid who has “so much to say”… we’re honored to help them share it. 🥰
