January’s special guest is Mandy Rodstrom. She is a person who stutters and a 20-year school-based Speech-Language Pathologist. After 30+ years of living as a covert stutterer, Mandy stepped out and began her journey to meet and embrace her stutter and the stuttering community. Professionally, this has propelled her to educate SLPs on trauma-informed considerations for stuttering therapy and become a part-time Clinical Supervisor and Adjunct Professor at Western Michigan University. She attends as many stuttering community events as she can and serves as a volunteer for numerous stuttering support groups(i.e., NSA Family Chapter Co-Leader in Washington DC, Friends Who Stutter, SPACE Community and Arts and, SAY). Mandy is married to her college sweetheart and they have three children. When not engaged in all things stuttering, you can find her spending time with her family, enjoying the outdoors, or having a family dance party in the kitchen!
Each month, our very own Director of SAY: Speech, Brooke Leiman Edwards, MA, CCC-SLP, BCS-SCF, will host with special guest co-hosts including our founder, Taro Alexander, our artistic director, Travis Robertson, our Development Manager, Kate Detrick, and many more! There is no commitment- just register for the months you want to attend to receive your zoom link.
