Why I Love Being a Polymath

People sometimes ask me, “How do you do so many things?”

My honest answer: I don’t know how NOT to.

I’ve never been someone who fits neatly into one box. I’m a speech pathologist, a writer, a life coach, an actor, a yoga teacher, an ESL educator, a business owner, and yes, someone who hangs upside down on a pole for fun.

And somehow… it all makes perfect sense to me.

Being a polymath feels like living in colour. Every skill I learn feeds another part of my life. Every curiosity becomes a doorway. Every new passion adds a layer to who I am and how I show up in the world.

Speech Pathology taught me to communicate with purpose

Working with kids and families has given me the deepest understanding of communication, not just the mechanics, but the heart behind it. Helping someone speak, read, learn, or connect unlocks something inside me too.

Life coaching taught me to listen, REALLY listen

Coaching helped me tune in to people’s dreams, fears, habits, and patterns. It made me a better therapist, a better friend, and honestly, a better human. It’s one of the skills that anchors everything else I do.

Acting taught me to feel everything fully

Acting is where I get to be bold, expressive, vulnerable, and creative in ways everyday life doesn’t always allow. It’s helped me understand characters, emotions, humanity – which loops right back into my coaching and therapy work.

Writing taught me to make sense of the world

Words are how I process life. From “The Speakable Child” to the new projects I’m creating, writing lets me turn ideas into stories, and stories into something useful for someone else.

Yoga taught me to breathe and soften

Yoga balances the fire. It reminds me to slow down, feel my body, and come back to myself, something all polymaths need because our brains can be like hummingbirds.

Pole art taught me strength, discipline, and play

Pole is where I surprise myself the most. The strength, the flow, the artistry; it’s a celebration of being human. It’s creative and athletic at the same time, and it’s one of the places where I feel the most free.

Business taught me courage

Speakable didn’t build itself. It took years of ideas, risks, failures, and growth. Being an entrepreneur showed me that creativity isn’t just an art; it’s a strategy.

What I love most about being a polymath

It’s not the titles or the skills.

It’s the way everything overlaps.

My acting improves my communication coaching.

My coaching improves my therapy.

My therapy work gives depth to my writing.

My writing clears my mind for yoga.

Yoga strengthens my discipline for pole.

Pole energises me for everything else.

It’s all connected like a tapestry of passions that weave together into one life.

I love being a polymath because it lets me be all of me.

Not half. Not one slice.

All.

And if there’s one message I hope people take from my journey, it’s this:

You don’t need to choose one dream.

You’re allowed to choose many and let them shape you into something extraordinary.

🎬 What Screen Acting Has Taught Me About Life, Communication & Courage

In 2024, when I first stepped into a screen-acting class at Darlo Drama, I thought I was simply learning how to perform for a camera. I didn’t realise I was stepping into a new training ground for presence, vulnerability, and connection – lessons that would ripple into my work as a speech pathologist, a coach, and even my everyday life.

Here are the biggest lessons screen acting has taught me:

1. Stillness Speaks Loudly

On screen, even the smallest movement matters. A slight eyebrow raise, the softening of a shoulder, a breath.

Screen acting trained me to slow down, to let a moment land, and to communicate without rushing.

This same stillness now helps me:

listen more deeply to clients, hold space in sessions and stay grounded in intense conversations.

In real life, stillness isn’t emptiness – it’s power.

2. Authenticity Reads Better Than Performance

The camera always knows when you’re pretending.

To deliver a truthful performance, you must strip away the masks, the rehearsed patterns, the “perfect” version of yourself and instead lead with honesty.

This has shaped how I teach communication:

Kids open up faster when I am real with them.

Parents trust me when I speak from the heart.

Teen clients relax when they feel seen, not analyzed.

Acting reminded me that people connect most with what is true.

3. Vulnerability Isn’t Weakness – It’s Courage

Screen scenes often require you to tap into fear, anger, grief, joy, or embarrassment on cue.

It’s emotional gymnastics.

To do that, you must access your own emotional truth and allow others to witness it.

Stepping into vulnerability on camera has made me braver in daily life:

asking for help, expressing boundaries, admitting mistakes and sharing my own stories.

Vulnerability creates trust. Trust creates connection.

4. You Learn to Fail Fast and Try Again

In acting, most takes “don’t work.”

You forget a line.

The emotion doesn’t land.

Your eye line is off.

Someone sneezes on set.

You just breathe and go again.

This resilience has flowed into everything I do especially business. Every idea, script, resource, workshop, or video is simply another “take.” If it doesn’t land, I reset and try again.

Failure isn’t failure.

It’s rehearsal.

5. Presence Over Perfection

A perfectly delivered line doesn’t matter if you’re disconnected.

But a messy line delivered with heart?

That’s magic.

Screen acting taught me:

to stay present instead of perfect, to listen instead of planning my next move, to drop into the moment instead of controlling it.

This has made me a stronger communicator, therapist, teacher, and performer.

6. Creativity Expands You

You never know what a script will ask of you:

A whisper.

A scream.

A heartbreak.

A transformation.

You stretch into new emotional shapes.

You play.

You experiment.

You become more you.

Every class reminds me that creativity is not a luxury but nourishment.

7. The Camera Teaches You Who You Really Are

When you watch yourself on screen, you see:

your habits, your strengths, your insecurities, your presence and your blind spots.

It’s confronting and incredibly liberating.

You learn to accept yourself more fully.

You learn to love the parts you once criticised.

You learn that expression is not about looking perfect but it’s about being true.

Final Thoughts

Screen acting has become more than a hobby for me. It’s a mirror, a teacher, and a form of therapy.

It has made me:

a stronger communicator, a more grounded teacher, a more compassionate clinician, a more courageous artist and a more authentic human.

I went into acting to learn performance.

I came out learning presence.

Thanks to my teachers and acting partners for pushing me and working with me. It’s an ongoing journey of learning! And thank YOU for reading my blog. xx

Stillness Isn’t Stagnation

There’s a quiet power in doing nothing. Yet for many of us – especially those who thrive on momentum, goals, and creativity – stillness can feel like weakness. We’re taught to move, achieve, and keep pushing. But what happens when our bodies – or life itself – tell us to stop?

When the Body Says “Enough”

Last month, during a pole class, I pushed myself too hard. I wanted to master a new combination, one I’d been working on for weeks. My body was tired, but I told myself, “Just one more try.”

Halfway through the move, I felt a sharp pain shoot through the side of my ribs. It was the kind of pain that silences the room, the kind that whispers, “You went too far.”

For the next few weeks, I couldn’t train the way I wanted. I had to rest – truly rest. At first, I felt frustrated. I worried about losing strength, rhythm, progress. But then something unexpected happened: I started to notice how exhausted I had been, not just physically, but mentally. My body wasn’t betraying me; it was begging me to listen.

The Lesson in Stillness

Yoga teaches me that every action has a counterbalance. Tapas – the fiery discipline that drives us – must always be held by santosha – the contentment that reminds us to rest in what is.

My rib injury became a teacher. It reminded me that stillness isn’t stagnation – it’s integration. It’s the moment when everything we’ve been working toward begins to settle and take form.

In that forced pause, I realized how much growth happens in the quiet. My body healed, yes, and so did my mind. I reflected on how often I equate motion with worth, productivity with purpose. Yet the truth is, I often find the deepest clarity not when I’m moving fast, but when I finally slow down enough to feel.

Rest Is Not Regression

Rest doesn’t mean going backwards. Just like muscles need recovery to rebuild stronger, our creativity, focus, and spirit need space to renew. Even nature rests – the tides pause, the moon wanes, the trees go still in winter.

If a tree doesn’t grow visibly for a season, we don’t call it lazy – we call it preparing. My rib was my winter. It forced me to pause, to breathe, to reflect. And when I finally returned to pole, I moved differently – more aware, more connected, more at peace with my pace.

Learning to Slow Without Guilt

For high-achievers, slowing down often comes with guilt. We worry that if we pause, we’ll fall behind. But I’ve learned that the pause is part of the rhythm – inhale, exhale; effort, surrender.

Stillness gives us perspective. It teaches us to trust the unseen which is the quiet recalibration happening beneath the surface. It’s not that progress stops; it simply moves inward.

The Beauty of the Pause

Now, when I step into the studio, I take a moment before every climb. I check in with my breath. I move from awareness, not adrenaline. I’ve learned that sometimes, slowing down is the most courageous thing we can do.

Because stillness isn’t stagnation.

It’s the sacred space where we soften, listen, and return to balance.

It’s where we stop striving long enough to remember why we started.

If you’ve ever felt guilty for resting, may this be your permission to pause. The world will still be there when you return, and you’ll meet it more whole, more grounded, and more alive.

Big hugs,

Bình

For My Mother

Born in Vietnam, beneath a sky of fire,

She carried her youth through smoke and wire.

A girl who dreamed, yet set dreams aside,

So her children’s wings could open wide.

She never finished high school’s gate,

But wisdom grew in her hands of fate.

Simple in ways, yet clever and strong,

She taught us right, she steered us long.

Through years of labour, sacrifice, care,

She built us a future from dust and prayer.

I walk with her strength in all that I do,

Her spirit, her love, forever true.

Now gone, but never out of sight,

She lives in my heart, a steady light.

I miss her laughter, her gentle tone,

But thankful I am, for all she’s sown.

And so I stand, because she stood,

Turning hardship into good.

Her story lives in all I’ve become,

Forever my guide, forever my mum.

Why I Don’t Have an English Name & Why Authenticity Matters 🇻🇳 🪷

The Question That Often Comes Up

When I first moved to Australia as a teenager, one of the first questions people asked me was: “What’s your English name?”

Sometimes people didn’t even ask. They just assumed. I’ve been called Ben more times than I can count, probably because it sounds a little like Bình, and it felt easier for them.

Even my pastor in Brisbane once gave me the name Timothy. For a few months in high school, I tried it out. I introduced myself as Timothy, signed my name that way, and went along with it. But it never sat right. Every time I heard it, I felt disconnected, like I was playing a role that didn’t belong to me. Eventually, I let it go.

Names Carry Stories

In Vietnamese, Bình means peace. It’s short, simple, and powerful. More than that, it carries the story my parents gave me at birth. It connects me to my family, my culture, and the resilience of generations who lived through the Vietnam War.

Trading it for something “easier” felt like erasing that story. My name is part of who I am, and it deserves to be spoken.

Authenticity Over Convenience

I understand why many people adopt English names. Sometimes it feels easier. You don’t have to repeat yourself three times in class or sit through the awkward silence of someone struggling to pronounce it.

But for me, keeping Bình has been an act of authenticity. Yes, it means people stumble. Yes, sometimes they call me Ben without asking. But each time I correct them, I’m affirming: my name matters, and so do I.

Representation Matters

If people can learn to say names like Schwarzenegger or Tchaikovsky, they can learn to say Bình. It’s about effort, respect, and expanding what we consider “normal.”

By keeping my Vietnamese name, I hope I make space for others too. The more we hear names from different cultures in classrooms, workplaces, and communities, the more they become part of our shared story.

Owning My Identity

My name grounds me. It’s a reminder that I don’t need to reshape who I am to fit in. I am not Ben. I am not Timothy. I am Bình and that’s enough.

So no, I don’t have an English name. And I don’t need one. My name is part of my authenticity, and authenticity is something I’ll never trade away.

Names are not a burden; they’re a gift. Honor them, speak them, and wear yours with pride.

Whether it’s your name, your culture, or your story, don’t feel you have to shrink or change it for others.

Your authenticity is your strength. Be proud!

Hugs,

Bình

From Idea to Impact: 11 Lessons in 11 Years of Speakable

This year, we celebrate 11 years of Speakable Speech Pathology – a milestone that reminds us how far a simple idea can grow when it’s backed by passion, persistence, and purpose. 

When I first started Speakable in 2014, I couldn’t have imagined the incredible journey it would become. What began as a vision to help children find their voice has grown into a thriving practice that impacts families every day.

Along the way, we’ve learned a lot about what it takes to build not just a business, but a mission-driven start-up that lasts. 

To celebrate, I’d like to share 11 lessons from 11 years that shaped Speakable and can help guide anyone dreaming of starting something of their own.

1. Start with purpose

The heart of any successful start-up is a clear “why.” For Speakable, it was simple: helping children become confident communicators and learners. Purpose fuels resilience – it’s what keeps you going when things get hard.

2. Solve a real problem

A start-up only works if it addresses a genuine need. Parents were searching for practical, evidence-based strategies to support their children’s speech and language. Speakable was built to fill that gap with accessible, personalised solutions.

3. Begin small, dream big

Speakable didn’t begin with a full team, branded office, or polished systems. It started with a commitment to serve (and a small table). Growth followed naturally as we stayed focused on helping one family at a time.

4. Build relationships, not just clients

Our growth has always come from word-of-mouth referrals and long-term relationships. People don’t just buy services as they invest in trust, care, and genuine connection.

5. Adapt and evolve

The pandemic taught us this lesson most vividly. We pivoted to online services, developed new resources, and found ways to support families remotely. Flexibility kept us relevant and resilient.

6. Hire for heart and skill

As Speakable grew, so did our team. We learned to bring in people who not only had the expertise, but also shared the same vision and values. Culture is the backbone of a strong start-up.

7. Keep learning

Running a business means wearing many hats. At the start, I was a clinician, a marketer, a manager, a technician, a cleaner and a coach. I invested in learning constantly, whether it was professional development, business strategy, or leadership training.

8. Celebrate small wins

Every milestone matters. From a child saying their first word to expanding our clinic, celebrating progress kept the journey joyful.

9. Stay financially grounded

Growth is exciting, but sustainability requires careful planning. From reinvesting profits to setting fair fees, keeping Speakable financially healthy ensured we could keep serving families long-term.

10. Give back

Success isn’t just measured in profit – it’s about impact. Speakable has always been about more than therapy sessions. It’s about empowering parents, training future clinicians, and sharing knowledge through workshops and writing.

Over the years, we’ve also extended our impact by supporting charities such as the World Food Programme, Blue Dragon Children’s Foundation, and One Tree Planted. Giving back has been an essential part of our journey because true success comes from creating ripples of change beyond your own business.

11. Never lose sight of the vision

Through every challenge, from long hours to unexpected changes, the vision of Speakable – to give children a voice – has been the guiding light. That vision has kept us grounded, inspired, and moving forward.

Looking ahead

Eleven years in, Speakable is stronger than ever. The road hasn’t always been easy, but it has been worth it. If there’s one message I’d share with anyone starting a new venture, it’s this: anchor yourself in purpose, stay adaptable, and keep learning.

Here’s to the next chapter, and to every dreamer ready to turn their idea into something remarkable.

Big hugs,

10 Life Lessons I Learned Working in Hospitality During Uni

Back when I was living in Brisbane for university, I worked part-time at a family-run restaurant to help cover my expenses. What started as a casual job to pay the bills turned into one of the best experiences of my life.

I spent four years waiting tables at a busy Vietnamese restaurant and in that time, I learned lessons about people, resilience, and real-world problem-solving that no university course could have taught me.

Here are ten lessons that I’ve learned:

1. Service is an attitude, not just a task

Being a good waiter wasn’t just about delivering food – it was about being present, attentive, and kind, even when I was exhausted. I learned that how you make someone feel is just as important as what you serve them.

2. People remember how you treat them

From customers celebrating special occasions to tired parents just needing a night off from cooking, each interaction mattered. A warm smile or remembering a regular’s order made a big impact and often led to better tips too!

3. Multitasking is a skill you can master

Juggling ten tables, a full drinks tray, and a mental list of who needed what taught me to prioritise, stay calm under pressure, and move fast without panicking. That ability to multitask has helped me in every job since.

4. Clear communication prevents chaos

Misheard orders, wrong table numbers, or unclear notes for the kitchen could snowball into unhappy customers and wasted food. I quickly learned to communicate clearly and double-check everything. These are the skills I now use daily.

5. It’s never personal

Not all customers were kind. Some were rude, impatient, or dismissive. Learning not to take it personally helped me stay grounded, professional, and focused on doing my job well without carrying emotional baggage into the next table.

6. Cultural pride can be found in the smallest moments

Working in a Vietnamese restaurant gave me the chance to proudly share my culture with people who may have been trying dishes like pho, bun bo hue, or goi cuon for the first time. I loved explaining the ingredients, the stories behind dishes, and why certain sauces were paired with specific foods.

7. Listening is a superpower

I got better at reading the room, noticing when someone needed help, or just giving space to people having a rough day. Listening with my ears, eyes, and instincts made me better at connecting with people from all walks of life.

8. A strong team makes all the difference

You can’t run a busy floor alone. We backed each other up, swapped shifts, and helped clear each other’s tables. There was no ego but just teamwork, trust, and a shared goal to make each night run smoothly.

9. Respect the hustle behind the scenes

The chefs who prepped broth from 6am. The owner who handled the books after hours. The kitchenhands who stayed late to clean. Seeing their dedication helped me appreciate the value of hard work and what it really takes to run a small business.

10. The smallest moments leave the biggest impressions

A quiet thank-you. A small tip from a regular. A child who gave me their drawing as a “tip.” These moments reminded me that even in a fast-paced, often thankless job, there’s always space for human connection and joy.

 

Working in hospitality in Brisbane while studying wasn’t easy, but it taught me grit, grace, and gratitude. It grounded me. It connected me with people I never would’ve met otherwise. Most importantly, it gave me life skills I still use today in business, relationships, and everyday life.

If you’ve ever worked in a restaurant, you’ll understand – you walk in for a paycheck, but if you pay attention, you leave with so much more. Those years taught me that no job is ever “just a job” as every experience, if you let it, shapes who you become.

If you believe: Finding my voice in a new country

When I was 15, I moved to Australia from Vietnam, and honestly, it was rough.

I didn’t speak much English. I was shy. Everything felt different and unfamiliar. I’d sit in class, trying to keep my head down, hoping no one would notice me. Not because I didn’t care – I just didn’t know how to join in. I had so many thoughts but couldn’t really find the words to express them.

At times, it felt like my voice was stuck somewhere deep inside, and I didn’t know how to bring it out.

But something in me wouldn’t quit. Maybe it was the thought of my family, who gave up so much to get me here. Maybe it was just that quiet belief that somehow, I could figure it out. So I kept going.

I studied harder than ever. I asked questions, even when it made me uncomfortable. I read everything I could. I slowly pushed through the fear and the awkwardness. One step at a time.

Eventually, I started to get it. I made it through high school. Then I went on to uni. Then, against all odds, I became a biomedical scientist.

But my journey didn’t stop there.

Because of what I went through – struggling with language, confidence, and connection – I felt drawn to help others who might feel the same. So, I became a speech pathologist. Fast forward to today, I now run my own clinic in Sydney, supporting kids and families to find their voice, build their confidence, and feel heard.

It’s crazy to think back to that quiet 15-year-old version of me, the one who felt lost and unsure. He wouldn’t believe where we are now.

But that’s the thing. You don’t need to have it all figured out at once. You just need to take the next step. And then the next.

If there’s one thing I’ve learned, it’s this: when you believe in yourself, even just a little, you can overcome way more than you think.

So, if you’re struggling right now, or feeling like you’re behind, or like you don’t belong – keep going.

You’ve got more strength in you than you know.

And if you believe in yourself, even a tiny bit, that’s enough to start.

Hugs & peace,

From Passion to Practice: 8 Lessons Learned in 11 Years of Business

Have you ever wondered what it takes to turn a childhood interest in business into a flourishing speech pathology practice? Growing up, I was more fascinated by the hustle of helping my parents with their business in Vietnam than by any school lesson. This early experience sparked a love for entrepreneurship that eventually led me to start Speakable Speech Pathology in 2014 in Sydney, Australia. 

Over the past decade or so, I’ve picked up a few key lessons that have not only shaped how I approach my profession but have also deeply enriched my personal life. 

Here are 8 big takeaways from my journey:

1. Relationships are everything

At our practice, it’s all about more than just the usual appointments; it’s about building real, meaningful connections. We treat everyone who walks through our door like family. This friendly vibe helps everyone feel included and supported, not just during sessions but as part of our bigger family circle. It’s cool to see how this turns our clients into friends who really get involved and feel connected to what we do at Speakable.

2. Stay flexible

During the COVID-19 pandemic, we quickly adapted by transitioning to telehealth services. This not only kept our practice running but also demonstrated our commitment to our clients’ progress and well-being under any circumstances. Flexibility in therapy approaches, like incorporating more digital tools or adjusting strategies based on client feedback, has also been crucial.

3. Never stop learning

My team and I personally take courses annually on the latest developments in speech & language pathology which has tremendously enhanced the therapy sessions we offer. Staying updated through continual education ensures that we are equipped with the most effective and innovative therapy techniques.

4. Set boundaries for a healthy work-life balance

Learning to set boundaries early on was essential. For example, I make it a point to not schedule clients after 6 PM so that I can have evenings with my friends, family and other hobbies. This helps maintain a sustainable work-life balance and prevents burnout.

5. Broaden your horizons

We diversified our services by introducing group therapy sessions and workshops for parents on how to support speech development at home. This not only helped stabilize our revenue streams but also catered to a broader segment of our community, enhancing our practice’s impact.

6. Get involved locally

Participating in local health fairs and school events has significantly boosted our practice’s visibility and reputation. By offering free screenings and workshops, we’ve been able to demonstrate our commitment to community wellness and draw in new clients who are looking for trusted local services.

7. Embrace technology

Investing in an integrated practice management software revolutionized how we handle appointments, billing, and client records. This technology has not only streamlined administrative tasks but also improved client satisfaction through smoother processes.

8. Feedback is gold

We regularly collect feedback through surveys at the end of each therapy cycle. This has been instrumental in fine-tuning our services. Celebrating positive feedback and addressing constructive criticism transparently has helped foster a culture of continuous improvement.

Running a speech pathology business is so much more than a day job—it’s a never-ending adventure of growth and discovery. These 8 lessons we’ve shared are just the beginning. Each day brings new challenges and opportunities that push us to learn more, do better, and think bigger. I’m really pumped to see where these insights will lead us and how they’ll help us make an even bigger impact. 

What kind of business are you running or thinking of starting? How do you see it evolving? Let’s inspire each other with our stories and ambitions!

Blending Art and Science: The Intersection of Acting and Speech Pathology

As someone deeply embedded in both the acting world and the realm of speech pathology, I’ve discovered some powerful synergies between the two disciplines that have profoundly influenced my approach to therapy.

Acting, at its core, is about communication—conveying emotions, ideas, and narratives in a way that resonates with an audience. Similarly, speech pathology focuses on enhancing a person’s ability to communicate effectively. 

But how exactly does acting influence my practice as a speech pathologist? Let me share some real-world insights and stories from my journey.

Using acting techniques to build confidence

One of the first lessons in acting is about building confidence—being able to stand in front of an audience and deliver your lines without letting your nerves get the better of you. This aspect of acting has been invaluable in my speech pathology sessions, especially with clients who struggle with speech anxieties or social communication.

For instance, I worked with a young client, let’s call her A, who was extremely shy and had difficulty speaking up in class. Drawing from acting, I introduced her to warm-up exercises like those used in theatre rehearsals. We practiced projecting her voice, using exaggerated expressions, and even some improvisation games. Over time, Mia’s confidence increased. She began participating more actively in class discussions and even joined drama as one for one of her school subjects.

Emotional expression and speech dynamics

Acting has taught me a lot about the nuances of emotional expression and how these can enhance speech dynamics. In therapy, I often use exercises that actors employ to convey different emotions through tone, volume, and pace. This is particularly useful for clients who speak in a monotone or whose speech lacks variation.

Take the case of S, a teenager with autism who struggled with monotonous speech. By incorporating role-playing scenarios that required expressing excitement, sadness, or curiosity, S began to understand how his tone could change the meaning of his words. His newfound ability to vary his speech made his communication more engaging and expressive.

Script analysis and speech planning

In acting, script analysis helps actors understand their characters’ motivations, which influences how they deliver their lines. This concept translates seamlessly into speech pathology, where I teach clients to plan their speech depending on their communication goals.

For example, during a session with a client preparing for a job interview, we analysed typical interview questions as if they were lines from a script. We discussed the intent behind each question and planned appropriate responses, focusing on delivering them in a way that showcased his strengths and enthusiasm for the position.

Feedback and adjustment

Finally, the iterative process of acting—where you continually receive feedback and make adjustments—is a critical component of effective speech therapy. Just as a director provides feedback to actors, I provide continuous, constructive feedback to my clients to help them refine their communication skills.

In a recent group therapy session, we created a mini-play, and each participant had roles with specific speaking parts. After each run-through, we discussed what went well and what could be improved, much like a rehearsal discussion in a theatre setting. This not only helped in fine-tuning speech skills but also fostered a supportive community among the participants.

Conclusion

The intersection of acting and speech pathology is a testament to how art and science can blend beautifully to enhance human capabilities. By integrating acting techniques into my speech pathology practice, I’ve been able to offer unique, creative solutions that motivate, inspire, and make learning enjoyable for my clients. Whether it’s through confidence-building, emotional expression, strategic planning, or iterative feedback, the art of acting continues to enrich the science of speech therapy in dynamic ways.

This cross-disciplinary approach not only makes therapy sessions more effective but also more enjoyable, proving that sometimes, a touch of art is just what science needs to change lives for the better.
