We’re back—and this time, we’re on video too! In this first brand-new episode since our Best Of Summer Series, Shannon shares her best advice for heading into a new school year when your child has an IEP.

From prompting to paperwork to parent rights, this episode breaks down the 5 Big Back-to-School IEP Buckets every autism parent should understand. Plus, you’ll hear common misconceptions that trip parents up and get a pep talk to remind you—you’ve got this.

Whether it’s your first year navigating special education or you’re a seasoned advocate, this episode will help you feel informed, empowered, and ready to lead your child’s IEP team with confidence.

📺 Now available on video too! Watch on Spotify or listen as always—whichever way you tune in, we’re just glad you’re here.

Thank you for being a part of this incredible journey with us! Together, we are stronger.
