Join voice scientist, Dr Ingo Titze and Speech and Language Pathologist, Karin Titze-Cox as they discuss their book 'Voices Free after SOVT', exploring the science and application of Semi-Occluded Vocal Tract exercises. They delve into the benefits, implementation, and clinical applications of SOVTs, including using straws and tools to improve vocal health and performance. The interview is preceded by a brief review of the book from singing teacher and podcast host, Alexa Terry. KEY TAKEAWAYS The book 'Voices Free after SOVT' provides a comprehensive understanding of the science and application of SOVT exercises. SOVT exercises can be beneficial for singers, clinicians, teachers, and anyone interested in understanding the mechanics of the voice. Repetition, analogy, and clear explanations are used in the book to make complex concepts accessible to a wide audience. Different types of SOVT exercises have varying intraoral pressures and can be used to achieve specific vocal objectives. SOVT exercises can be used for evaluation, conditioning, and rehabilitation in clinical settings. SOVT exercises, such as using straws, can be beneficial for vocal health and performance. Finding the right resistance and pressure is important for effective SOVT exercises. Different materials and configurations can be used for SOVT exercises, depending on individual preferences and needs. SOVT exercises can help improve vocal resonance, muscle tension, and overall vocal technique. BEST MOMENTS  "When you pick up a book by Ingo Tietze and Karen Tietze-Cox, you know you're entering academic territory."

Building strong relationships with children is a vital part of helping them grow and develop. One powerful way to do this is through co-regulation. Co-regulation means working together with kids to help them manage their emotions and behavior. It's like a team effort where adults and children support each other. When we co-regulate, we create a safe and caring environment where children can learn to understand and control their feelings. This can lead to stronger, more trusting relationships between adults and kids, helping them thrive and succeed in their journey of growing up.   In this episode, we are joined by Suzanne Ducharme MacFarlane, a Pediatric Speech and Language Pathologist with over 30 years of experience helping children and their families make connections and optimize their communication and development, to talk about co-regulation and how we can use it to help kids and anyone in our orbit calm down and energize. Suzanne shares tips for learning self-regulation and helping kids self-regulate. She also talks about how women can start implementing self-regulation in their lives and the lives of their kids.

L'effet papillon : le podcast de l'impact positif d'Anne-Fleur Andrle

C'est la semaine de la célébration des neurodiversités ! Je ne l'avais pas vraiment prévu mais quelle meilleure intervenante que Jessie Ginsburg, qui dédie sa carrière à intégrer les différences sensorielles propres à chacun pour prendre en charge tous les enfants ?Je ne me souviens pas exactement de la première fois que je suis tombée sur le travail de Jessie. Probablement lorsque je cherchais des informations complémentaires sur l'orthophonie pour mon fils. Je suis tout d'abord tombée sur son compte Instagram, sensory.slp. Jessie Ginsburg est orthophoniste (ou SLP pour Speech and Language Pathologist en anglais) et vit à Los Angeles. Elle est Maman de 4 enfants et a son propre cabinet d'orthophonie qui se spécialise dans la prise en charge des neurodiversités, the Pediatric Therapy Playhouse.Son compte Instagram regorge de ressources pour apprendre comment intégrer les pratiques sensorielles pour accompagner et aider les enfants à se réguler tout en apprenant. Un sujet qui me passionne ! A l'époque, quand j'ai commencé à la suivre, son contenu était créer pour ses pairs, d'autres orthophonistes. En fait, lorsque Jessie a commencé à travailler avec des enfants autistes, elle a compris que prendre en compte les besoins sensoriels de chaque enfant était fondamental mais quand elle a voulu se former sur ce sujet là spécifiquement, elle n'a rien trouvé qui soit pour les orthophonistes en particulier. Alors elle s'est inscrite à toutes les formations qu'elle a pu trouver sur le sujet pour les kinés et ergothérapeutes notamment. Et à un moment, elle a créé la formation qu'elle aurait voulu suivre pour ses collègues. L'objectif de Jessie ? Elle pourrait surcharger son emploi du temps et enchainer les patients. Mais non, ce qu'elle veut c'est créer un effet par ricochet. Qui permette d'impacter durablement les pratiques de sa profession. Vous vous dites sans doute qu'elle est née pour faire cela. Peut-être. Mais saviez-vous qu'à la base son objectif c'était de devenir vigneronne ?Retrouvez la suite de son histoire dans l'épisode 4 de L'Effet Papillon !Un épisode par Anne-Fleur Andrle, mixage et habillage par Alice Krief.Retrouvez-moi sur Instagram : https://www.instagram.com/annefleurandrle Hosted on Acast.

There are countless opportunities built into a child's everyday life that could be used for support in language development. The best parts are that they won't even know they're working on these skills and they're fun! Today's guest is Stefanie Trenholme, a Speech and Language Pathologist and children's book author. In our conversation today, Stefanie explains some common misconceptions about speech and language development and disabilities. She describes the different areas of language development and the red flags that are often overlooked or misinterpreted. Did you know your daily routines could be used to help your child's language development? In this episode, Stefanie really digs into the topic. Be sure to listen to the end to also hear about Stefanie's fun book that can be used to enhance any child's language skills and boost their motivation to read.   Show Notes: [2:18] - There is a misconception about what Speech and Language Pathologists do. [4:27] - Red flags for language development can look different for different kids at different ages, but Stefanie shares some common ones. [5:52] - There are different areas of language development and for some children, they could be impacted in one area or all. [7:00] - Some red flags are overlooked by parents. [8:47] - Although there are different areas of language development, they are connected and often one area's deficit impacts other areas. [10:18] - Unaddressed language difficulties in young children can lead to behavior concerns as they are easily frustrated. [12:12] - Kids may have a difficult time sharing about their day. [13:27] - Language variation is another area of difficulty that is often overlooked. [14:51] - By the time a student is in high school, social language becomes more complex. [17:01] - Parents may not always see language difficulties when they happen most often at school. [18:45] - Executive functioning also plays a role. [20:50] - For all children, routines are great for language development. [22:46] - Kids won't know they are working on language skills because they are focused on their routine. [25:00] - There are so many opportunities in a week to hone in on skills in daily routines. [26:23] - Make the child an active participant in learning. [27:42] - Stefanie has written a children's book that parents can use to help with vocabulary and routines. [29:36] - It is a picture book typically for “little” kids, but picture books can easily be adapted to work with any age. [31:31] - Lola is a real dog and with her help, Stefanie demonstrates different language skills in a fun and motivational way. [33:17] - One more thing! Cooking together is great for language skills and executive functioning.   About Our Guest: Stefanie Trenholme is the owner of Trenholme Speech Therapy, a private pediatric practice in West Los Angeles.

ONCE UPON A GENE - EPISODE 130 A Rare Collection - Penny for your Thoughts There's power in storytelling- for the listener and the storyteller. A Rare Collection is a monthly series featuring people from the rare disease community, sharing a story with a common theme.  EPISODE HIGHLIGHTS Drie Barr, Physical Therapist A physical therapist is a movement therapist, an expert in body mechanics, movement pattern and providing diagnoses of the musculoskeletal system. While not an expert in language, Drie has learned through her experiences that communication is more than words strung together into sentences. Communication can present in the form of a variety of sounds, vocalizations, gestures, sign language, facial expressions, eye gaze, body language, laughter, tears and many other ways. In addition to her job diagnosing musculoskeletal impairments and teaching functional movement patterns, modern language skills are deeply intertwined and connected in the work. Movement is language and everyone has something to say. It's up to all of us to listen beyond words, to listen with the eyes and the heart.  Miaya Allen, Speech and Language Pathologist  Miaya has been a Speech and Language Pathologist for 16 years. Working with children with a variety of abilities and challenges has taught her about the power of resiliency and human spirit. Working with their families and caregivers has taught her the power of trust, patience and extending yourself grace. She shares her best advice with her patients' parents— Being a parent is the best and hardest job you will ever have, so enjoy the wins, try not to get stuck on the losses, and trust the process, be patient and extend yourself grace.  Sarah Putt, Podcaster and Founder of OT 4 Lyfe Sarah works as an Occupational Therapist in home-based early intervention. Going into a client's home makes for a unique and special experience, becoming familiar with where they live, but also meeting the people closest to them. Being aware of their daily routines makes supporting families easier when they need it. To all the parents and families out there who work with therapists in their homes, know this is more than a job to us. We do the work we do because it's who we are and it's a calling. Your child and your family touch our lives and forever change us.  Alissa Hughes, Rare Mom, Speech and Language Pathologist and Founder of Purposeful Play Everyday Being an SLP, that comes so naturally. Here is what I know. I love to read. I love to write. I love to rhyme and play and sing. Words, they are my everything. I love watching your kids grow and teaching you everything I know so you can teach them too. I love when the light bulb flickers and I can see they understand. I won't stop until they do. And if they still can't quite yet, I'll try something new. Again and again until the breakthrough. Because we all need to communicate and I'll do whatever it takes to share that gift with you. Gestures, sounds, pictures or signs. Or smiles in your eyes. You show me what works best and I will do the rest. It's just so black and white to me as your SLP.

In this episode, we meet Cheryl Rigdon who is the creator of Spatty and the owner of Rigdon Creative Solutions, LLC. Cheryl speaks about her background and the inspiration behind her product, the Spatty. Cheryl was lucky enough to make it on Shark Tank and although she didn't secure a deal with any of the sharks, the experience did result in a mentor relationship with Daymond John! We chat about how she got the opportunity to be on Shark Tank and what life was like after her big TV appearance. Later, we talk about navigating obstacles on your entrepreneurial journey, and Cheryl advises aspiring inventors.   IN THIS EPISODE: [01:50] About Cheryl Rigdon and the inspiration behind her product, the Spatty.  [05:55] Cheryl talks about the process of getting on Shark Tank, and her experience with the sharks.  [12:30] What it was like finding someone to manufacture the Spatty before Cheryl showed up for Shark Tank.  [22:15] Cheryl has faced many roadblocks over the past few years. She speaks about how to navigate adversity on your entrepreneurial journey.  [27:45] The Spatty has allowed Cheryl to spend more time with her family; dreams do come true!     KEY TAKEAWAYS: Treat all communication as a business opportunity; you never know which relationships will open the right door for you.  Use your hustle, kindness, grace, and passion on your entrepreneurial journey.  If you have the resources to help somebody or the means to help somebody; do it!  There's a lot of hustle before the flow; you may end up working for several years before you can pay yourself.    LINKS MENTIONED: Spatty https://thespatty.com   BIO: Cheryl Rigdon is the creator of Spatty and the owner of Rigdon Creative Solutions, LLC. Cheryl has a Master's Degree in Speech Pathology and an Undergraduate Degree in Special Education. Before Cheryl invented Spatty and founded Rigdon Creative Solutions, LLC she worked full time as a Speech and Language Pathologist and she continued working full time as a Speech and Language Pathologist while running her Spatty business for a few years. Cheryl now works full-time running Spatty.   Cheryl has always been a problem-solver, and when she got annoyed by not being able to access the product at the bottom of her expensive bottles of makeup and lotion, she came up with a solution. That solution was Spatty. After creating the perfect tool for her dilemma to get every last drop of her foundation she decided that the same tool, only bigger, could be used in the kitchen, garage, and throughout the home, so the Spatty family of tools was born. There is a Spatty for every need (Beauty, Kitchen, Crafting, Home/Auto).   Spatty has been featured on Shark Tank, Good Morning America, The View, Dr. Oz The Good Life, Glamour, Allure, Women's World, Buzz Feed, Forbes, and many others!   Cheryl made a deal with Daymond John on Shark Tank on a never seen episode! Daymond and his team have been amazing people to work with!  Cheryl has revolutionized the spatula industry selling Spatties in Walmart, CVS, Albertson's, Giant Eagle, Bed Bath and Beyond, and others. The Spatty is the number one selling spatula on Amazon. Over 1.3 million Spatties sold! Spatty is quickly becoming a staple item in everyone's homes. When Cheryl is not working on Spatty she loves to spend time with her husband and two young daughters!
