InSiGhT on the AuThOR: I never watch the news. Instead, you will find me crafting or eating kiwi and strawberries, while swinging in my hammock dreaming about ways I can decorate my therapy room, or add to my sensory corner. Lately, I have been dabbling with body positivity on instagram. It's always good to let other speechies know that we are all in this together, things are not always peachie, but we will make it. I am a full time SLP just like you. I make crafts to make me happy and to make my speech therapy students happy. I hope you feel the love in my products. Follow me on Instagram @speechdreams.
