Chapter 1: What personal challenges did Dr. Christy Bock face growing up?
You're never happier than your saddest child. So imagine you have a child who has something going on and you do not know what it is and you do not have the answers. Well, we come into the picture, either through the school districts or private evaluations, and we give them the answers. And not only do we give them the answers, but we give them a path forward.
We give them that roadmap that they need to be able to support their child. Dr. Christy Bock is a compassionate educational psychologist and the founder of Cornerstone Educational Solutions. Drawing from her journey of overcoming undiagnosed dyslexia, she empowers students, families, and educators with the tools, advocacy, and support needed to help every learner thrive with confidence.
The education tends to be same old, same old. There's not a lot of change.
There's not a lot of innovation, right?
No, there's not. I think a lot of it is schools not necessarily giving the students what they need because the schools don't have the knowledge of what they need. And that's why I say we disrupt. I mean, what we do with the way we do evaluations, we're disruptors. We are changing the way evaluations are being done.

Chapter 3: What innovations are needed in the education system?
It was fun. It was fun to be able to kind of articulate all these pieces of my life, my story, the business, kind of all putting it in one.
So what are some things that we're going to learn about you in your Legacy Makers episode? What can the viewers look forward to?
Well, they can look forward to the fact that this is truly missional for me. It's a part of who I am. Not really... It started as a business to make money, but it's turned into kind of who I am, starting as a learning disabled student with dyslexia and turning into that's the population we serve. We serve the students with disabilities. So it's been a very cool evolution.
Got you. Got you. And so I heard in just in the name of your company, you're in the education space.
We are.
So talk to me a little bit about, you know, some of the ups and downs in that space. What are what are some of the things that you're dealing with on a daily basis?
Man, you know, in the education space right now, it's the. It's crazy how much anxiety... I've been a psych for 28 years, and so I have watched it go from where autism was never even discussed, and now we're diagnosing autism constantly. And I would say since COVID, we have seen such an elevation in the anxiety that students experience. It's insane.
And it's real and there's just not a lot of support for them because it's kind of new to a lot of the pieces of education where we haven't really had to deal with it that much in the past. So, you know, kind of re equipping ourselves to be able to deal with this rise of anxiety, depression, social, emotional concerns in general has been a bit of a challenge, but it's rewarding because
underneath all of that anxiety are kids who really, you know, they're amazing kids. And we just need to kind of get past a lot of this.

Chapter 4: How has student anxiety changed in recent years?
Talk to me a little bit about, like... The structure of schooling as it is, right? Why aren't we as a society thinking about ways to restructure? We have all of this new technology. I mean, in the year of our Lord 2025, there's so many systems that we could build that could be a better thing. Why aren't we taking more of a nuanced approach to schooling?
I think that there are some innovators. In California, we're predominantly charter schools. So they're kind of like able to be a little bit more innovative. But education in general, and when you get these big districts that, you know, there isn't really any, I mean, they'll try and there'll be some funding for something. It all comes back to money. But we're not teaching kids.
I laugh because you said you did so well. And the whole time I'm thinking, I'm like, well, I graduated high school with a 1.6 grade point average.
heck yeah man but i did i hated school and i you know i was undiagnosed dyslexic and so it's one of those things that we train kids to have that structure you you you go to school at 7 45 you do this you do that and they're never able to able to be free thinkers they're never able to think outside of the box to be able to go so then they get to college and they're like oh Holy crud.
I can sleep in. Well, I'm going to sleep in and miss my class or I could do this. And so unfortunately, we're not really preparing kids for that next step in their lives, even though we think we are. You know, I have a daughter who it's her freshman year in college right now, and she did extremely well in school, like national law, all of these things that she's supposed to do.
Well, that's great for high school, but like in college, it's like, well, okay, I have to be able to think outside of the box. I need to be able to problem solve and we're not giving kids those skills. So there's a lot of charter schools and a lot of schools that are trying to kind of move through that where, you know, there's even entrepreneur type high schools now.
Where they're championing students who want to be entrepreneurs, trying to cater to those students who do think outside of the box. Because I'm an entrepreneur, and I was never, oh, let's stay within my nice little box, point A to point B. I was the one that went from here to here to here to here to here, and I got in trouble for it. So in school, I got in trouble for...
kind of giving in to the way my brain works because it's not the normal, but yet in real life, the way my brain works is awesome because it allows like me to problem solve. And I've been able to disrupt education and be able to do things that I've been able to do because I think so differently. So it's, it's just, we need to encourage that in schools so that our students can, um,
get out there and do things with the way their brain truly works, as opposed to being kind of kept in this little space that that's not beneficial for them.

Chapter 5: What role do evaluations play in supporting students with disabilities?
Yep.
Because in that gap time, maybe work a job, you know, go out there, try some stuff, figure out what's working for you and then go into college with that knowledge. Know yourself first and then learn whatever it is that's going to carry you through your career.
Absolutely.
What's your take on that?
I completely agree. I think that we, you know, you take kids from high school and then you send them away to school.
First time out of the nest.
Oh, yeah. First time out of the nest. And, you know, do you know that most people who get their first job in life Like as like AF post college have never worked a day in their life. Like most kids don't have jobs. A lot of kids don't have driver's license anymore. So it's, it's one of those things that I personally think we're coddling way too much.
And we're, we're, you know, kind of clearing the path, the path. So kids don't have adversity so that they'll do their best. Well, then they get into life and life smacks them. And it's like, good luck with that. I mean, they don't have the problem solving or the experience to know, what do I do when this happens? Or what do I do? Because they've never done it. And so I agree.
I think it's a very... And we're trying to figure out who we are in college, but if we aren't giving them the opportunities to be able to really have true life experience, we're kind of shortchanging the kids in many ways.
