Unspoken Words: A Selective Mutism Podcast by Dr. Elisa Shipon-Blum
Episode 74 of the Unspoken Words podcast features a discussion between Dr. Elisa Shipon-Blum and Dr. Jenna Blum, exploring one of the most frequently asked — and misunderstood — questions in the selective mutism community: Is it SM, autism, or both?In the episode, Dr. E and Dr. Jenna break down the core features of each condition and explain why they so often look alike on the surface — while stemming from very different underlying causes. They discuss why the home environment is one of the most important diagnostic clues, how a child's motivation for peer connection can reveal whether anxiety or the social puzzle is driving their shutdown, and why the reason behind the silence matters just as much as the silence itself.They also cover the critical distinction between comfort and skills — why children with SM have innate social know-how that anxiety blocks, while children on the autism spectrum often need those social skills explicitly taught. Additionally, they address masking, restricted interests, echolalia, and the initiation-versus-response dynamic that can look surprisingly different in the autism population. The episode closes with an overview of the SMart Center's evaluation process, including how the SME, ADOS, and ADIR tools work together to bring clarity to complex, overlapping presentations.--(03:04) Is It SM, Autism, or Both?

We're wrapping up our AI Tools series with a special episode featuring just the two of us—Matt and Moshe—looking back at what we really learned (and where we're still confused) about AI in product management.Across this conversation, we revisit the core themes that emerged with our guests and in our own experiments: from “vibe coding” and no‑code builders, to LLM assistants, enterprise privacy, agentic workflows, and the evolving role of the product manager. We share candid stories of using tools like Google Stitch, Figma/Figma Make, FlutterFlow, Base44, and others to design and prototype a real mobile app; what worked, what broke, and why credits, pricing, and model limits matter far more than the glossy demos suggest.Join Matt and Moshe as they explore:How our AI Tools series evolved, from “let's review tools” to “AI is not one thing, it's many different problem spaces”Why “vibe coding” is a misleading umbrella term, and how it means something different to devs, PMs, and designersLessons from using AI for design and prototyping: inconsistent outputs, beta‑stage rough edges, and the pain of credit-based modelsBuild vs. buy for AI: integrating foundation models vs. building your own, and what that means for pricing, UX, and reliabilityEnterprise realities: privacy, security, and why tools like Copilot/Gemini have such an advantage where data and IT policies matterHow conversations with our guests (Sani, Eva, Elena, Stav, Yaron, Marcos and Adir) shifted our thinking about workflows, orchestration, and agentsThe future of agent-to-agent interactions: what happens when AIs negotiate purchases and workflows with minimal human promptsWhy first principles and business outcomes still matter more than any single AI toolHow the PM role is changing: less tool‑chasing, more orchestration, strategy, and clarity about what problem we're actually solvingWhat topics we'd tackle next, like pricing, packaging, and credit models for AI products, and how this series is shaping our own careersAnd much more!You can connect with us and keep following what comes after this AI Tools series:Product for Product Podcast: http://linkedin.com/company/product-for-product-podcastMatt Green: https://www.linkedin.com/in/mattgreenproduct/Moshe Mikanovsky: http://www.linkedin.com/in/mikanovskyNote: Any views mentioned in the podcast are the sole views of our hosts and guests, and do not represent the products mentioned in any way.Please leave us a review and feedback ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
