SLP Talk Show
Real talk with Cari about stuff that really matters. Each bite-sized episode will be filled with happy stuff, heavy stuff, light stuff, and of course some speech therapy stuff as well. Our time together will be fun and informative...and while you might gain a few speech therapy-related nuggets along the way, my primary goal is for you to walk away feeling rejuvenated, motivated, and excited to go to work tomorrow. If you’re a parent, please come along for the ride. There is a place for you in this space as well. But listener BEWARE: All episodes will be delivered with joyful passion! If you’re looking for a traditional interview format, this ain’t the podcast for you (I love using the word ”ain’t” in a written sentence...it feels so wrong!). So buckle up and let’s get this podcast party started!

Cari talks about how the four parenting styles can be used to determine one's teaching/therapy style as well. Relationship-based learning stems from the authoritative style of raising, teaching, and supporting the development of children. Cari shares how she remembers the difference between the authoritative and the authoritarian parenting styles (hint: it has to do with potatoes).
