Last week’s AAC moment grew right out of the paint under our nails a whole lot of joy. We painted flower pots, listened to music, and watched connection and communication bloom before our eyes. If you want the Mother’s Day communication board and activity (planting flowers), DM me “Mom,” and I’ll send it your way.

Why not today? PSA to fellow SLPs: stop waiting to start AAC, and stop waiting to start robust AAC. Today is the best day to give a child with a disability a life changing option. Pictured is the most beautiful I-16 (mounted on a PentaLock rolling floor mount). End user (AAC user) is using TD Snap Core First 3x3 grid size with modifications due to CVI. Goal is to increase grid size with consistent and accessible usage. Comments and questions? Drop them below.

Lately, I’ve seen some things that are not okay, and that’s okay. What’s not okay is anyone telling you that you are worthless, that has you questioning your role as an SLP. For every single child we may not have helped, there are millions of children that we have changed their lives for the better. Don’t allow anyone (no matter how many followers), to engage in toxic conversations that have you doubting yourself. You ARE worth it; YOU are incredible. And, yes you’ve done so much good. That’s what you should tell yourself.

We are hearing so much more about motor planning and autism lately, and honestly? It’s about time. I remember digging into the research behind this over a decade ago because I knew there was more to the story for my students than just ‘behavior’ or ‘cognition.’ While autism is complex, motor planning is often the missing piece of the puzzle when progress stalls. If you’re wondering what supports your child actually needs to succeed, start with the AAC Prompt Hierarchy. I’ve made it easy to understand and implement in the AAC Survival Toolkit, you can find it through the link in my bio!

AAC isn’t about perfection. It’s about access, connection, and tiny moments of progress that add up quietly in the moment. If you’re in the season where everything feels too much, you’re not alone. I build my resources, my sessions, and my AAC Survival Toolkit for families exactly in this place-the ones who are trying, learning, and loving their kids fiercely, even on days that feel heavy. If you want support, clarity, or a steadier path forward, my DMs are open. And if you want access to the AAC Survival Toolkit, drop a 💓 below, and I’ll send it directly to your inbox. We’re in this together, one small, steady step at a time.
