Fan Mail: Tell Wendy how you're saying yes to yourself!In this episode, Wendy sits down with Karen Mayer Cunningham, special education advocate and author of Epic IEP, a framework that transforms the complicated federal special education law into actionable steps. After years of doing 500 IEP meetings annually, Karen realized her greatest pain in motherhood had become her biggest calling: helping families navigate special education when the system feels impossibly complicated.They explore:What it means to advocate WITH schools, not against them, and why that partnership mattersWhy children with disabilities have capacity, but they need the right intervention and support to reach equityThe scope of need: why individual advocacy alone isn't enoughKaren's approach is fundamentally collaborative: she works alongside teachers, administrators, and families because she knows they're all navigating a system that's overwhelming for everyone. Her conviction is simple: when we start seeing each other as partners working toward the same goal, that's when children actually get what they need. Connect with Karen:Get her book, The Epic IEP: amazon.com/Epic-IEP-Educators-Advocates-Navigating/dp/1637635125?tag=syty-20SpecialEducationAcademy.comInstagram: instagram.com/specialeducationboss________________________________________________________________________________________Connect with Wendy:LinkedinInstagram: @wendy.harropFacebook: Phineas Wright HouseWebsite: Phineas Wright House PWH Farm StaysPWH Curated Experience and TravelInterested in being a guest on the show?

In Episode 145 of Let's Talk Learning Disabilities, Laurie, Sydney, and Cara have a "Hot Topics" discussion where they each bring a current study or topic covering the systemic gaps in how learning disabilities get identified, a commonly overlooked processing disorder that flies under the radar in schools, and exciting new neuroscience research reframing how we understand and diagnose ADHD. Across all three topics, a common thread emerges: the field is advancing rapidly, but awareness, resources, and diagnostic tools haven't caught up -- leaving many students, particularly girls and those in under-resourced environments, without the support they need.Resources:Contact info for the podcast: letstalklearningdisabilities@gmail.comE-Diagnostic Learning Website: https://ediagnosticlearning.comFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/eDiaglearning/Twitter: @diaglearningLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/diagnostic-learning-services/Instagram: @diaglearning

Overview: We explore the realities of caring for people with learning disabilities through a powerful conversation with ⁠Dr. Sara Ryan,⁠ whose lived experience and research shed light on the stigma, systemic failures, and everyday barriers faced by this community. We hear about the devastating concept of "social murder," where systems knowingly allow preventable harm, and discuss why individuals with learning disabilities often receive substandard healthcare. Drawing on personal stories and research, we reflect on actionable steps clinicians and caregivers can take, emphasizing the importance of narrative humility, thoughtful interactions, and recognizing the unique humanity of each patient. We also examine the limitations of training and research, highlight moments of everyday brilliance in care, and talk about the role of advocacy, allies, and collective change in creating a more inclusive healthcare environment. Three Takeaways: The Label of Learning Disability Transforms Lives—But Not the Person Dr. Sara Ryan describes how receiving a diagnosis of learning disability abruptly changes how individuals are treated, despite them remaining the same person inside. The label often overshadows their identity and triggers systemic shifts that lead to substandard care and premature death, Stigma and Isolation are Intensified in Certain Communities The episode underlines that while stigma around learning disabilities is pervasive, it is especially acute in some cultural communities. Dr. Sara Ryan recounts how, due to extreme stigmatization, research with ethnically minoritized groups is nearly impossible and families remain so isolated they lack basic support, as in the example of the woman uncertain how to wash her brother's hair at 08:01. Systemic Neglect is Not Invisibility—It's Social Murder Dr. Sara Ryan introduces the concept of "social murder," which is when a system knowingly allows the conditions for harm and early death among people with learning disabilities, yet does nothing to intervene—a reality persistently documented but rarely addressed, as explored Book: ⁠Critical Health and Learning Disabilities: An Exploration of Erasure a⁠ Next Step: Visit our website, ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Healthcare for Humans⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠, and join our community to enjoy exclusive benefits at ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.healthcareforhumans.org/support/⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Support Our Mission: Non-clinicians, explore exclusive content and contribute to our collective journey.

In this week's sermon from Psalm 139:13–16, we explored how what the world often labels as a "learning disability" is not a flaw in how God created us, but a reflection of how human systems define and measure value. We were reminded that we are intentionally formed by God with dignity that is not diminished by our struggles to meet human standards. This truth confronts the shame that can come from not "fitting in" and invites us into a deeper identity rooted in God's design and perspective. We were then pointed to Jesus, who was often overlooked and misunderstood, yet through what appeared to be weakness became the means of redemption. Ultimately, we were reminded that our limitations do not disqualify us, but can become the very place where God meets us and works through us.

Did you know 15 to 20% of the population has dyslexia, yet most schools are still failing these students? In this episode of the Elevate Media Podcast, host Chris Anderson sits down with Russell Van Brocklen, a dyslexia educator and researcher with over a decade of experience helping students overcome learning differences through a brain-based approach rooted in Yale research. Russell breaks down exactly why the traditional school system is built for a brain that dyslexic students simply don't have and what to do instead. He walks through his step-by-step writing method that can take a child writing random, misspelled words to producing well-structured sentences with correct grammar in a single session. He also shares how he's helping students with dyslexia, ADD, and ADHD find their "specialty" (their narrow area of deep interest) and use it as the engine for advanced academic achievement, including peer-reviewed research and AI-era career readiness. Whether your child is struggling in school, you suspect dyslexia in yourself, or you're just fascinated by how different brains learn, this episode will change the way you think about intelligence, education, and potential.

Does every child in Canada truly have a right to an education? In this powerful episode on The Gritty Nurse with Host Amie Archibald-Varley, she sits down with Matthew Flagler and Richard Hackett to discuss the systemic failures within Canada's healthcare and education systems. Spurred by the personal struggle to get adequate support for children with learning disabilities, Richard and Matthew are leading a movement to hold the government accountable. They dive deep into why the current governments education system is failing families, the dangerous creep of privatization in healthcare, and the growing class divide in access to essential services. Most importantly, they discuss their House of Commons petition aimed at making quality education a constitutionally protected right for every child, regardless of their needs. In this episode, we cover: The personal toll of navigating a broken special education system. Why the "right to education" is currently a legal grey area in Canada. The link between public healthcare, education, and social equity. How community advocacy can drive real legislative change.

Santhouse, who is dyslexic himself, focuses his practice on the emotional side of neurodivergence rather than just the academic or language-based struggles typically associated with dyslexia. He notes that many individuals with learning disabilities suffer from persistent self-doubt, social disconnection, and a sense of being "othered" in various contexts.Resources:Olive Counseling Website: https://www.olivecounseling.comContact info for the podcast: letstalklearningdisabilities@gmail.comE-Diagnostic Learning Website: https://ediagnosticlearning.comFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/eDiaglearning/Twitter: @diaglearningLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/diagnostic-learning-services/Instagram: @diaglearning

Watch the video version here: https://youtu.be/_mk7zmUDYsk  In this episode of Disability Deep Dive, hosts Keith and Jodi delve into the harrowing crisis of preventable deaths among individuals with intellectual disabilities. Joined by UK Professor Sara Ryan, author of "Critical Health and Learning Disabilities: an Exploration of Erasure and Social Murder," they discuss the systemic issues and inaction that allow these tragic deaths to persist. Professor Ryan shares personal anecdotes and case studies, highlighting the concept of 'social murder,' where known harmful conditions remain unaddressed. In the "Deep Cut" segment, they review the BBC drama "When Barbara Met Alan," which portrays the real-life struggles and triumphs of disability rights activists in the UK. The conversation emphasizes the importance of ongoing advocacy, public engagement, and the crucial need for enforcement and attitudinal shifts to achieve true equality. They also explore the differences between the UK's Disability Discrimination Act (DDA) and the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA), examining the impact of grassroots activism on legislative change.  Sara Ryan's book, "Critical Health and Learning Disabilities: An Exploration of Erasure and Social Murder" - https://www.routledge.com/Critical-Health-and-Learning-Disabilities-An-Exploration-of-Erasure-and-Social-Murder/Ryan/p/book/9781032605005

Send us a textThink a restless math class means ADHD? We peel back the layers to show how a specific learning disorder can masquerade as attention problems in one subject while everything else looks fine. With Hannah at the table, we walk through clear criteria, real classroom clues, and the practical ways to separate ADHD, SLD, or both—so kids get the right help faster.We start with the three core domains of specific learning disorder—reading, written expression, and mathematics—and outline what struggle actually looks like: slow decoding and poor comprehension, disorganized writing and shaky spelling, weak number sense and problem‑solving. Then we zoom in on the six‑month rule: difficulties must persist despite targeted support like tutoring, accommodations, or structured interventions. You'll hear why challenges often surface in third to fifth grade, when the work shifts from memorizing facts to analysis and synthesis, and how early intervention leverages neuroplasticity—the “paved roads” analogy that makes brain development easy to picture and act on.To make this actionable, we map the assessment landscape. For learning, tools like the Woodcock‑Johnson, WIAT, WRAT, and KeyMath pinpoint subskill gaps; for attention and behavior, the Vanderbilt, Conners, BASC, and CBCL help establish cross‑setting patterns. The key move: if academic deficits remain after ADHD symptoms are well managed, a co‑existing SLD is likely and needs direct instruction. Along the way we share concrete signs to watch for in class, common pitfalls that delay help, and a quick recap of ADHD and autism spectrum disorder to anchor your mental model of neurodevelopmental differences.Whether you're a parent, educator, or clinician, you'll leave with a sharper lens and a practical plan: notice where the struggle lives, measure it well, intervene early, and monitor progress often.

Interviewees: Emily Green, MD and Kelley Volpe, MD Interviewer: Lisa Meeks, PhD, MA Description: In Episode 113, Dr. Lisa Meeks talks with Dr. Emily Green (child psychiatrist, University of Chicago; recent fellow at UIC) and Dr. Kelley Volpe (training director of the Child and Adolescent Psychiatry Fellowship at UIC) about navigating fellowship with ADHD and a learning disability—and how openness, advocacy, and leadership support shaped a successful training experience. Together, they trace Emily's decision-making during the match, the challenges of transitioning from residency to fellowship (and from student to employee), and the unexpected barriers in GME accommodation processes. They unpack how program leadership stepped in when paperwork stalled, why “temporary vs. chronic” misunderstandings of disability remain a problem, and how centering inclusion ultimately benefited both the trainee and the program. Listeners will hear advice for residents and fellows (be specific in accommodation requests, know when disclosure matters, embrace authenticity with patients) and for program directors (be proactive with GME, advocate beyond bureaucracy, and create space for trainees to bring their whole selves to medicine). This episode accompanies the open-access case study From Policy to Practice: Building the Disability Inclusion Infrastructure in Graduate Medical Education (Green & Volpe, Academic Medicine, 2025). Part of the ACGME/DWDI Disability Resource Hub, supported by the Josiah Macy Jr. Foundation Catalyst Award, it's both a roadmap and a reminder that when programs invest in access, everyone wins.

   We've officially got 100 days of greatness in the books and if you didn't know better, you'd think the world is falling apart.  It's been one good win after another with a closed border, deportations, criminals caught, prices down and a tax bill in the works.  Oh, and countries agree they will have to pay some tariffs now to balance things out a bit.    But the Dems seem to have a learning disability as they are treating this the same way they have for 10 years even though it's proven to fail.  Good for them.   Former KU basketball player Julian Wright has gone rogue against the program and specifically head coach Bill Self.  In doing so, Wright inserts himself into a very special category of stupidity.   The Eagles White House visit featured at least a dozen no shows and a dozen opportunities missed.  Shaq becomes GM of a college team and a legendary country singer has a horse in the Kentucky Derby.

Coping with a learning disability can be frustrating and discouraging, not to mention emotionally, mentally, and spiritually challenging. But… what if you saw that disability as a gift directing you to God's purpose for your life?   On today's podcast, Kendra Morgan, from our Tulsa, Oklahoma community, shares her story of struggling through school and the difficulties she faced in the classroom until one professor was determined to figure out how she learned best. The results of his testing were life-changing for Kendra and led her to God's vision for her life. This inspiring story will encourage you to know that God is indeed purposeful in your pain.    IN THIS EPISODE YOU WILL LEARN: - Sometimes, a learning disability just requires a shift in how you are taught.  - With the right tools, your brain can train itself in how it retains information.  - God can bring great vision to those who are seeking His calling.   Links:   Building All Children - Kendra's non-profit ministry   Give to StoryTellers Live in honor of Kendra and our past storytellers.    Become a Patreon Insider to access bonus content.   Shop for our When God Shows Up Bible Study series, including the newly released Discovering God in Stories of Faith!   Register for our online workshop being offered on May 6th: Finding God in the Details: A Guide to Discerning His Voice and Discovering Your Story
