In this week's episode of The Ripple Effect I share a bit of my journey with Lefort jaw surgery to install 4 titanium screws into a DOME palatal expander. Learn via my journey and lens of being a speech language pathologist (a patient, parent, and professional) and how I learned about my posterior tongue tie, high and narrow palatal arch, and nasal airway restriction had been the root cause of my sleep apnea/sleep disordered breathing.
I share how I came to the awareness via my hindsight symptoms and my journey over the past two years with a tongue tie release, jaw surgery, surgical palatal expansion, and now braces. You will learn what professionals to potential seek to have you or someone you know evaluated for this treatment and more.

Jen & Ashley Whittaker: The friendships that heal.
In this week's episode, I interview a dear friend who shares her story about having to risk losing everything she knew on her unfolding journey to personal truth. She shares wisdom about undoing strict religious programming within herself while holding space for herself and her family members. You get to hear how we met, and how our friendship helped heal us both & how we get to a realization that we are the directors of our own lives vs. giving up that personal power to an organization whether it be a religion, government, and the likes.
Ashley also shares tips and tricks related to her new business of organizing spaces, and how everything carries energy (the objects and spaces in our living spaces). She shares some simple tricks to start off the journey to decluttering and creating more flow in your daily life.
