Nu och sen Vi sammanfattar terminen med en genomgång av de höjdpunkter vi tycker oss upplevt och vad vi hoppas att framtiden ska föra med sig. David slår ett slag för storheten i det lilla i fråga om att ALLA ska få möjligheten att lyckas och Tomas gör en ofrivillig koppling mellan språkutveckling och kommunikation i det gemensamma att saker måste få ta tid. Vi pratar också kort om: kommunikation, vision, kvalitet, hjälpmedel, Emelie Dijnér, förändringsarbete, språket, Juulia Järvdike, HAB-ledare, InPrint, personalgruppen, Camilla Dahlin, att få lyckas, engagemang, KASAM, salutogent perspektiv, trygghet, Maria Engman, stolt assistent och PERMA. God fortsättning och gott nytt år!

Vi bjuder tillbaka den fortfarande relativt nyanställda HAB-ledaren Emelie Dijnér för att fördjupa oss ytterligare i ämnet kommunikation och landar i några upplysande exempel från verkligheten. David vill veta mer om de rent konkreta konsekvenserna av den förtydligande kommunikationen på brukarens välmående. Tomas är lite extra nyfiken på personalgruppens reaktioner på introducerandet av nya metoder och får det tillfredsställande svaret att en viktig nyckel är personalgruppens känsla av delaktighet och Emelie hänvisar till forskningen i fråga om det positiva med mer snarare än mindre kompletterande kommunikationshjälpmedel; tecken OCH bild är bättre än bara det ena av dem. Vi pratar också kort om: AKK, TAKK, InPrint, kartläggningar, förtydliganden, delaktighet, tidsuppfattning, Sigvard Tavla, konst, måleri, envägskommunikation, samtalskartor, val och sociala berättelser. Mycket nöje!

On Monday's show: A court struck down President Biden's student debt relief program, and an appeals court will hear the case next.

Hello, Barn Burners! I met acclaimed writer Thomas H. McNeely at Inprint in Houston to record him reading his story, Tickle Torture. The story is from his collection, Pictures of the Shark, which I read and recommend for its powerful and relatable depictions of a tumultuous childhood. In a starred review, Kirkus has called Thomas H. McNeely's book, Pictures of the Shark: Stories "an emotionally taut and often haunting collection." An East End Houston native, McNeely has published short stories and non-fiction in The Atlantic, Texas Monthly, Ploughshares, and many other magazines and anthologies. He has received fellowships from the National Endowment for the Arts, the Wallace Stegner Program at Stanford University, and the MacDowell Colony.

Vi pratar också kort om: NPF, kroppsspråk, tonläge, bilder, det gemensamma, utbyte, flockdjur, grottmänniskor, tolkningar, sändare och mottagare, “lampa”, pekprat, personliga erfarenheter, personlig historik, dialog, TAKK, spegling, taktil kommunikation, AKK, InPrint, bildstöd och vägskyltar.  Mycket nöje!

This week on Relationships 2.0 my guest is Allie Rowbottom author of The Jell-O Girls: A Family History About the book: In 1899, Allie Rowbottom's great-great-great-uncle bought the patent to Jell-O from its inventor for $450. The sale would turn out to be one of the most profitable business deals in American history, and the generations that followed enjoyed immense privilege - but they were also haunted by suicides, cancer, alcoholism, and mysterious ailments. More than 100 years after that deal was struck, Allie's mother Mary was diagnosed with the same incurable cancer, a disease that had also claimed her own mother's life. Determined to combat what she had come to consider the "Jell-O curse" and her looming mortality, Mary began obsessively researching her family's past, determined to understand the origins of her illness and the impact on her life of Jell-O and the traditional American values the company championed. Before she died in 2015, Mary began to send Allie boxes of her research and notes, in the hope that her daughter might write what she could not. JELL-O GIRLS is the liberation of that story. A gripping examination of the dark side of an iconic American product and a moving portrait of the women who lived in the shadow of its fractured fortune, JELL-O GIRLS is a family history, a feminist history, and a story of motherhood, love and loss. In crystalline prose Rowbottom considers the roots of trauma not only in her own family, but in the American psyche as well, ultimately weaving a story that is deeply personal, as well as deeply connected to the collective female experience. A "gorgeous" (New York Times) memoir that braids the evolution of one of America's most iconic branding campaigns with the stirring tales of the women who lived behind its facade - told by the inheritor of their stories. A New York Times Editors' Choice One of People Magazine's Best Books of Summer An Amazon Best Book of the Month An Indie Next Pick A Real Simple Best Book of 2018 About the author: Allie Rowbottom received her BA from New York University, her MFA from the California Institute of the Arts and her PhD in Creative Writing and Literature from the University of Houston. Her work has received scholarships, essay prizes and honorable mentions from Tin House, Inprint, the Best American Essays series, the Florida Review, The Bellingham Review, the Black Warrior Review, The Southampton Review, and Hunger Mountain. She lives in Los Angeles.

Attention Literary Tourists! I met with Kristi Beer from Inprint Houston, a non-profit organization dedicated to inspiring readers and writers in Houston, Texas. Founded in 1983, Inprint fulfills its mission through the nationally renowned Margarett Root Brown Reading Series, the Cool Brains! Reading Series for Young People, literary and educational activities in the community that demonstrate the value and impact of creative writing, and support for the University of Houston Creative Writing Program.  These programs and events play a vital role contributing to Houston's rich and diverse cultural life. Who better then to question about how the Literary Tourist might best spend his or her time in Houston.
