In this episode of our podcast, we are thrilled to welcome a special guest, seasoned Speech and Language Pathologist Danielle Moore of The Language Group in Atlanta, GA.

As parent coaches, we are here to support parents, and we believe it’s crucial to let the experts who work directly with the kids highlight what parents need to address themselves to get the most out of the experts’ support.

Our conversation will be unedited and honest and delve into the heart of their role, challenging assumptions and misconceptions that parents (and teachers) often hold. We’ll explore who they serve and our guest will share their experiences and observations about the common attitudes or patterns they’ve noticed when parents first approach them.

We’ll discuss the misconceptions parents often have about their child’s situation and how parental expectations can impact the work with the child. Our guest will share insights on how parents can fully accept their child’s current situation unconditionally and how to demystify the parental expectation of the ‘Linear Path of Success’.

We’ll also touch on what an “ideal” parent might do, say, and address within themselves to ensure their child gets the most out of the services provided. Our guest will also share their perspective on the support available for parents and what professionals in the field wish parents would address.

Tune in for an engaging and informative discussion!

Last week we talked about how emotional parenting can be! And when our children's’ path is not linear from A to B we can easily descend into feelings of frustration and anxiety. It makes sense that if our kids get a diagnosis of a learning difference or are neurodiverse these feelings for us get amplified.

As parents we are rarely the experts in child development and psychiatry - we don't know what it means for them or for us in terms of our parenting. How can we as parents feel confident and comfortable seeking advice, find our way through, and help our children thrive.

For Anke, this topic is very dear to her heart. As a parent, this is how she came to find coaching both incredibly helpful for herself and discover that this was what she wanted to do going forward so others would have the space and support she often missed.
