This episode is sponsored by Bloom Testing.

If your child is struggling in school, melting down over homework, falling behind in reading, zoning out in class, or constantly overwhelmed, it can leave you feeling unsure of what to do next. You know they’re bright. You know they’re trying. But something isn’t clicking.

In this episode, we sit down with Dr. Kimberly Hinman, a licensed psychologist and owner of Bloom Testing, a Kansas City–based practice specializing in high quality psychoeducational, neuropsychological, and autism evaluations for children, teens, and adults.

What You’ll Hear in This Episode

In this conversation, we talk about what it really looks like to pursue clarity when a child is struggling including:

The earliest signs a child may be struggling academically, behaviorally, or emotionally

The biggest misconceptions about ADHD, autism, and learning difference

How to tell the difference between typical development and something that needs evaluation

What a psychoeducational evaluation actually is and what it can reveal

The difference between school testing and private testing

What testing day feels like for a child and how to support anxious or sensitive kid

How results translate into real support, including IEPs, 504 plans, and school accommodations

What to say to parents who worry about labeling their child

First steps to take if you think your child may need testing

Dr. Hinman reminds us that struggling in school doesn’t mean a child isn’t smart- it means we haven’t figured out what’s getting in the way. A good evaluation doesn’t label a child; it explains their experience. Testing isn’t about a diagnosis. It’s about a roadmap.

If you’ve ever felt that quiet nudge that something feels off, this episode is for you.

About Dr. Himan

Originally from upstate New York, Dr. Hinman graduated Phi Beta Kappa from the State University of New York at Geneseo and earned her Ph.D. in Counseling Psychology from Columbia University. She relocated to Kansas City in 2020 and has since built strong relationships with local pediatricians, therapists, and schools. As both a clinician and a mom herself, she brings warmth, clarity, and practicality to the families she serves.

Dr. Hinman now carries forward the legacy of Bloom Testing’s founder, the late Dr. Dawn Bloom, whose compassionate, evidence-based approach made a significant impact in the community. Today, she honors that foundation while expanding the practice’s services-including a growing focus on learning differences, ADHD assessments, psychoeducational testing, and comprehensive autism evaluations.

Sonya’s mother was diagnosed with dementia in May 2012, beginning a five-year journey that would ultimately redefine their relationship. Sonya shares what life looked like before the diagnosis, the early signs that something wasn’t right, and the emotional shift that occurred when she became her mother’s full-time caregiver, stepping into what she describes as "becoming the mother of my mother."

In this deeply moving episode, we’re joined by Sonya Jury, a transformational leader, speaker, entrepreneur, and Certified EOS (Entrepreneuer Operating System) Implementer known for her ability to connect the dots and turn complexity into clarity. While Sonya helps organizations bring vision to life professionally, she also brings a powerful and deeply personal perspective shaped by her years as a caregiver for her mother.

We talk about Sonya’s book, Mom Forgot My Birthday, written after what she candidly calls "riding the dementia train" with her mom. The title captures the heartbreak, confusion, and reality of Alzheimer’s, and the book itself is structured around the three stages of the disease: early, middle, and late. Sonya reflects on how her relationship with her mother evolved through each stage- from uncertainty and frustration to grief, acceptance, and profound love.

Throughout the conversation, Sonya blends her natural leadership lens with deep compassion, offering clarity for listeners who may be worried about their own parents or loved ones. She shares common warning signs of Alzheimer’s, the very first step to take if concerns arise, and what she wishes she had known earlier- lessons she now offers to help others navigate caregiving with more resilience, understanding, and grace.

Sonya’s story is honest, tender, and deeply human. This episode offers both practical guidance and emotional reassurance for caregivers, family members, and anyone seeking to better understand dementia and Alzheimer’s — reminding us that even in loss, there can be clarity, connection, and compassion.

In this episode, we discuss:

Early signs of Alzheimer’s and dementia

How caregiving reshapes family roles and relationships

The emotional realities of each stage of the disease

What to do if you’re concerned about a loved one

Lessons learned after five years as a caregiver

The heart behind Mom Forgot My Birthday

Listen now for a powerful conversation about leadership, caregiving, love, and honoring those we care for even as memories fade.

Today’s conversation is about faith, honesty, healing, and what it looks like to rebuild your life and identity after walking through something deeply painful. Our guest is Jami Nato, a popular author, speaker, and entrepreneur (and Kansas City mom!) known for her relatable, humorous, faith-based reflections on family, marriage, and personal growth. 

In today’s episode, Jami talks about her family and how she first began sharing her life and perspective publicly, how her faith shifted through the hardest seasons, and what it really looked like to do the hard, personal work of forgiveness. We’ll also talk about her decision to step away from a familiar church environment to find a new way of connecting with God, what she believes faith communities can still offer, and how all of these experiences shape her writing and her book.

About Jami Nato: Jami has become a voice of honesty and hope, sharing lessons on forgiveness, purpose, and authenticity through her blog, social media, and her book This Must Be the Place. She lives in the Kansas City area with her husband, and their four kids-often sharing the beautifully “messy” parts of real life with humor and grace.

Today on the show, we’re excited to welcome Katie Wieners, the owner of Monstera’s Books in Downtown Overland Park! Katie lives in Overland Park with her husband, Justin, and their two daughters. 

Before opening the bookstore, Katie spent nearly 15 years in software sales, building a successful career that many would consider the “safe path.” But after becoming a mom for the second time, she realized something important: the work that once energized her no longer felt aligned with the life she wanted to build. So she made a bold shift.

In March 2024, Katie opened Monstera’s Books, a beautiful blend of books and plants that quickly became a neighborhood favorite. Then in summer of 2025, a fire forced them closed. After extensive rebuilding the store and inventory, they reopened in time for the holidays.

We’re talking about what it looks like to pivot careers as a mom, follow a dream that feels a little scary, build something from the ground up, and create a space where other people can feel at home. Katie’s story is such an inspiring reminder that motherhood doesn’t close doors — it can actually open the right ones.

Nora and Demetrious were thrilled to learn they were pregnant with twins after receiving IVF treatments. When it came time to choose a hospital for prenatal care and to deliver their babies, they did extensive research. They chose University Health because of the maternal and fetal medicine physicians specializing in high-risk pregnancy and the access to a Level III Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU).

On February 20, 2025, Nora delivered twin girls at University Health. One daughter was able to go home shortly after birth, while the other stayed in the NICU to receive extra care. She was able to join her sister at home a week later. Today, Nora and Demetrious are busy parents, juggling the hectic and exciting chaos that comes with having twins. We spent time today chatting with Nora about her experience.

What You’ll Hear in This Episode

In this conversation, we talk about what it’s really like to welcome twins- especially when their journey begins in the NICU. We explore:

What it was like finding out they were expecting twin

The emotional and practical realities of having babies in the NICU

Who and what supported them through that experience

The transition home after a NICU stay- both the joy and the overwhelm

How they divided responsibilities with two infants

The surprises, challenges, and learning curves unique to caring for twins

How she found or built a supportive community

Her message of encouragement for other moms navigating NICU life or parenting multiples

Topics we cover include:

What a 529 plan is, along with its uses and key benefits

The best time to open a 529 account

Who can contribute to a 529 plan and contribution limits

Guidance on setting up a 529 account

Kansas State Treasurer Steven Johnson

Kansas State Treasurer Steven Johnson was born and raised on a cattle and grain farm near Assaria, Kansas.

After graduating from Southeast Saline High School, Steven went on to study Agricultural Economics at Kansas State University, where he was elected Student Body President and graduated with honors. Steven began his career in the financial services sector while remaining involved in the family farm. He continued his education at the University of Chicago where he received a Masters in Business Administration with an emphasis in finance and business policy.

Steven’s financially-focused education was a valued tool in the financial services sector when he led the development of an asset allocation software program that calculated the highest return of investment for a particular need. His interest and expertise in financial issues during the economic downturn of 2008-09 was a catalyst in his decision to enter public service. Steven ran for the state legislature and was elected in 2010. His financial and agricultural background led to committee appointments including Chairman of the Tax Committee, Chairman of Insurance and Pensions Committee, and a member of committees including Appropriations and Agriculture and Natural Resources. Steven was elected the state’s 42nd state treasurer in 2022 and assumed office on January 9, 2023.

Every 8 minutes, one American life is lost to fentanyl. In 2021, fentanyl was responsible for 77% of drug-induced deaths for ages 14-18. Kansas City is not immune to this growing problem.

Today we are talking with Jenny Ecord, who tells the story of her nephew, Cooper, who lost his life to fentanyl poisoning at 16. Her family has made it their mission to spread awareness and education about fentanyl in his honor.

We also hear from Dr. Michelle DePhillips, a pediatric emergency medicine physician at Children's Mercy. She discusses what she sees in the ER in Kansas City, why fentanyl is dangerous for teens, and how we can prevent future tragedies.

In our conversation we cover:

How prominent fentanyl issues are in the KC metro

What does fentanyl does to the body.

Common ages for fentanyl related emergencies.

How these drugs get in the hands of teens.

How one family turned a tragedy into a prevention program for teens.

How parents can have important conversations about drugs with their kids.

Jenny Ecord, RN, APRN-C is a wife, mother, sister, aunt and daughter. She is also a pediatric nurse practitioner at Children’s Mercy and has been a strong advocate for children her entire career. Her story of fentanyl is a very personal family tragedy. She is the aunt of a young teenager, Cooper, who lost his life to a fentanyl poisoning in August 2021. Cooper was 16 years old when he died.

Jenny and her family have made it their mission to spread awareness and education about fentanyl in Coop’s honor. They do not want any other family to suffer a devastating loss like theirs has.

A foundation has been created for this cause along with a strong social media presence. Jenny and her sister-in-law, Cooper’s mother, have talked in schools, at parent meetings, neighborhood gatherings, churches to share their message. They have met with many political and law enforcement officials and are working closely with these organizations.

Michelle DePhillips, MD, is a pediatric emergency medicine physician and pediatric emergency medicine resident rotation director at Children’s Mercy. She is also an Assistant Professor of Pediatrics at University of Missouri-Kansas City School of Medicine and a Clinical Assistance Professor of Pediatrics at University of Kansas School of Medicine.

Dr. DePhillips attended medical school at Creighton University School of Medicine before competing residency and fellowship at Children’s Mercy. In addition to emergency medicine and teaching residents, her interests also include appropriate opioid prescribing and global health.
