SLP Nerdcast · Empowering Independence: Fostering Effective Communication for Adult Success · 17 Nov 2025 podcast

I wonder, I mean, as you were talking, I was thinking about just the family systems piece and how counseling. podcast-host

I mean, we talk about counseling. podcast-host

I think every single episode on this podcast, counseling touches everything we do in speech pathology. podcast-host

Um, but when you are thinking about or talking about advocating to their own parents, you're really starting to, especially if they're technically a minor still, right? podcast-host

So if you're working with someone who's maybe 17. podcast-host

uh or someone who's over 18, but there's maybe questions of guardianship or, you know, independent living, then the parents are going to be involved. podcast-host

So how do you navigate that from a counseling and family systems aspect in working with the whole, with the whole unit, the whole family unit? podcast-host

I was just gonna do a little I was smiling while you were talking because a lot of this resonates with me personally as a parent. podcast-host

Maybe this is an overshare, but it is hard to be a parent. podcast-host

And it's hard to let go as your kids get older. podcast-host

And I it's even harder, I would imagine, if you've given, you know, if you've had extra anxiety and extra worry about making sure that they have everything that they need, that they're gonna be okay, that they can do things on their own. podcast-host

So there's a whole complexity of individual journey and growth there just for the parent. podcast-host
