About this listen

In this first episode of "Starting with IEP," I share the deeply personal story of my daughter, Aliyah. I open up about the painful journey of seeking a diagnosis, the frustration of being dismissed by doctors, and the emotional toll of watching my child struggle.


This isn't just a story about medical challenges; it's a testament to a mother's relentless fight to ensure her daughter is seen, heard, and supported. I explain how my own experience transformed me into a passionate advocate and educator, and how it fueled my mission to help other parents navigate the special education system with confidence and compassion. If you've ever felt alone in your journey, I hope this episode reminds you that you are not.
