013 Income, Impact, and Ice Cream: Steal My Summer Reading Structure

It's almost MDW which means summer is about to start. In this episode I talk about what I have planned inside my company, my practice, and my family for June and July. Then I'm going deep on my summer private practice schedule and the strategy I use to lesson plan 5 sessions in about 60 minutes per week. This strategy gives me space to create student-specific materials when I need to while also keeping my sessions predictable for both me and my students. This is the formula for a balanced summer of income, impact, and ice cream. 😎 The price of enrolling in The Reading SLP jumps soon.

012 Behind the Brand: What Its Like to Scale a Company

Ever wonder what actually goes into running and growing The Reading SLP day to day? Elizabeth pulls back the curtain and welcomes a very special guest: the team member who helped scale The Reading SLP from a single course to a full community ecosystem. They're talking professional (and personal) growth, team-building, what worked, what didn't, and everything coming your way this summer.

011 What Starting a Doctorate While Pregnant Taught Me About Risk

What does it actually take to bet on yourself? In this episode, Elizabeth gets real about her Ed.D. journey — not just the milestone of passing her qualifying exams, but the messier, scarier decision that started it all: enrolling in a doctoral program while pregnant and walking away from a stable job. But this episode isn't really about school. It's about risk — and how we've been thinking about it wrong. Elizabeth also pulls back the curtain on what The Reading SLP actually is (hint: it's a lot more than a course), shares what's been happening in the After Dark WhatsApp group, and has an honest conversation about IEP season. If you've been sitting on a dream, waiting for the "right" time, or quietly talking yourself out of something big — this one's for you. The real risk isn't going for it. It's staying put. In this episode: * Elizabeth celebrates passing her qualifying exams 🎉 * What the Ed.D. journey actually looks like (and what she didn't expect) * The moment she had to choose: new baby, new career path, or both * Why she believes the bigger risk is not going for it * IEP season real talk * The Reading SLP After Dark and what you're missing in the group chat [https://www.instagram.com/p/DYA-Mk7Hy0y/?utm_source=ig_web_copy_link&igsh=MzRlODBiNWFlZA==] * A reminder to stop borrowing problems from the future The price of enrolling in The Reading SLP jumps soon.

009 "Sight" Words 👀

"Sight word" might be one of the most controversial and misunderstood terms in all of the science of reading...and it's time to set the record straight. In this episode, I share why traditional sight word walls are well-intentioned but off the mark and leave you with the language to explain it all to the teachers and families you work with.
