I’m excited to be bringing Micki Boas on the podcast because not only is she incredibly knowledgeable and passionate about the state of dyslexia services in our education systems, but she’s also one of those parents who created what she needed in the world so other families could benefit. Following her youngest son’s diagnosis with dyslexia, and the resulting four-year legal battle to get him the educational support he needed, Micki quit her day job as a marketing consultant to focus on dyslexia advocacy full time. The result is her new book called One in Five: How We’re Fighting for Our Dyslexic Kids in a System That’s Failing Them, referring to the statistic that one in five children have dyslexia, and yet so many are lost in a dysfunctional and underfunded system. Micki is also the founder of Invisible Red Tape, an online advising and crowdsourcing platform for parents to find practical, helpful solutions for fighting the inequalities in education for children with dyslexia. THINGS YOU’LL LEARN FROM THIS EPISODE: How and why Micki came to write her book One in Five The constellation of systemic issues in education that contribute to delayed diagnosis and gaps in support for dyslexia in the United States Why early intervention is so important and how to start conversations with a pediatrician to request early free intervention services How the Covid-19 pandemic is draining resources needed for virtual special education learning and what parents need to know about their rights Micki’s strategies and tips for how parents of dyslexic and special needs students can successfully navigate the remote school How One in Five is different from most books about parenting kids with learning disabilities RESOURCES MENTIONED: Micki Boas’ website Invisible Red Tape One in Five: How We’re Fighting for Our Dyslexic Kids in a System That’s Failing Them by Micki Boas FAPE / Free and Appropriate Public Education IDEA / Individuals with Disabilities Education Act Orton Gillingham / Institute for Multisensory Education Wilson Reading System Support the showConnect with Tilt Parenting Visit Tilt Parenting Take the free 7-Day Challenge Read a chapter of Differently Wired Follow Tilt on Twitter & Instagram Learn more about your ad choices.

Maria is the founder of Autism in Black, which provides educational and advocacy services to Black parents who have a child on the spectrum, as well as to bring awareness to and reduce the stigma associated with an autism diagnosis in the Black community.

My guest is psychotherapist and author Tina Payne Bryson, the co-author (with Dr. Dan Siegel) of the groundbreaking brain science and parenting books The Whole-Brain Child, and No-Drama Discipline. Her new book is called The Power of Showing Up and is perhaps my most favorite of all the books that she and Dan have written together. It focuses on what I believe so deeply is important with our differently wired kids—that we show up for them. Tina and I do a deep dive into what showing up for our kids looks like, the theory of secure attachment and how it affects our children on a neurological level. What I love about this conversation is that not only is Tina is all about brain science and helping parents understand the power of secure attachment, but that she also offers such a positive and hopeful message to parents, encouraging us to be more forgiving and generous with ourselves in order to show up for our children in the best possible, but not necessarily perfect, way. This episode sheds some insight into how to do just that. Dr. Tina Payne Bryson is the Founder and Executive Director of The Center for Connection, a multidisciplinary clinical practice in Southern California. Dr. Bryson keynotes conferences and conducts workshops for parents, educators, and clinicians all over the world, and she frequently consults with schools, businesses, and other organizations. Things you’ll learn from this episode: What showing up for our kids as parents means What the four components of secure attachment are: safe, seen, soothed, and secure What to do about parental guilt and how to repair past trauma and mistakes The brain science behind secure attachment theory and why it is so vital for healthy human development What are the most important things we can do right now to foster secure attachments with our children, according to Tina Resources: Tina Payne Bryson’s website The Power of Showing Up: How Parental Presence Shapes Who Our Kids Become and How Their Brains Become Wired by Dr. Dan Siegel and Tina Payne Bryson, PhD The Yes Brain: How to Cultivate Courage, Curiosity, and Resilience in Your Child by Dr. Dan Siegel and Tina Payne Bryson, PhD The Whole-Brain Child: 12 Revolutionary Strategies to Nurture Your Child’s Developing Mind by Dr. Dan Siegel and Tina Payne Bryson, PhD Support the show Connect with Tilt Parenting Visit Tilt Parenting Take the free 7-Day Challenge Read a chapter of Differently Wired Follow Tilt on Twitter & Instagram Learn more about your ad choices.

She’s also the author of Sisterhood of the Spectrum, and the memoir Autism in Heels: The Untold Story of a Female Life on the Spectrum. Jennifer’s work has led to collaboration with the National Institutes of Health Interagency Autism Coordinating Committee, the President’s Council on Disabilities, the Autism Society of America, Amy Poehler’s Smart Girls, and multiple media outlets. We cover so much ground during our conversation…everything from labels and diagnosis, to the limits of language and the power of reframes, to the unique challenges and reality for girls on the spectrum, and so much more. From this conversation, you will truly get a feel for Jennifer’s passion and her relentlessly positive approach to the world. THINGS YOU’LL LEARN FROM THIS EPISODE: Glimpses into Jennifer’s story as a woman on the spectrum and as a mother of three differently wired children The importance of reframing, while also recognizing the difficulty that comes with downplaying challenges The unique challenges associated with misidentifying girls on the spectrum and why they are often misdiagnosed RESOURCES MENTIONED: Jennifer Cook’s website The Asperkid’s (Secret) Book of Social Rules: The Handbook of Not-So-Obvious Social Guidelines for Tweens and Teens With Asperger Syndrome by Jennifer Cook Asperkids: An Insider’s Guide to Loving, Understanding, and Teaching Children with Asperger’s Syndrome by Jennifer Cook Autism in Heels: The Untold Story of a Female Life on the Spectrum by Jennifer Cook Support the show Connect with Tilt Parenting Visit Tilt Parenting Take the free 7-Day Challenge Read a chapter of Differently Wired Follow Tilt on Twitter & Instagram Learn more about your ad choices.
