The Queer SLP Podcast

We're finally back, starting with a new proud professional episode! We kick off 2023 with part one of our conversation with Nicole Gress (she/they). Nicole is the queer, gender-diverse founder and CEO of Undead Voice, an online platform empowering and educating trans, non-binary, and gender diverse folks to create a voice that aligns with their identity. In this episode, we discuss Nicole's personal journey as an SLP and what led them to developing Undead Voice. Be on the lookout for part two, when we will talk more about Undead Voice's philosophy and approach.

Special guest Carly Jones gives their perspective as a neurodiverse, nonbinary SLP. 

Natalie surprises Hector with a mystery topic!  What do you know about stereotypes?  How do stereotypes affect the way you treat your clients, your colleagues, and yourself?
