In this powerful episode of The Cultural Curriculum Chat, host Jebeh Edmunds sits down with Jeaneen Tang, a speech-language pathologist, author, and mother whose story is one of resilience, hope, and the transformative power of communication.

When Jeaneen’s son Che suffered a traumatic brain injury and stroke at just 13 months old, doctors warned he might never walk or talk. But through her expertise, patience, and unwavering love, Jeaneen helped her son defy the odds — and along the way, discovered new ways to empower all children to find their voices.

Together, Jebeh and Jeaneen explore:
🧠 Why early language development matters more than ever
💬 How simple, everyday interactions can build communication skills
🎯 The “Play Dumb and Sabotage” strategy — and why it works
👩🏾‍🏫 How educators, caregivers, and parents can prevent early speech delays
💖 The role of hope, empathy, and community in a child’s growth

This heartwarming conversation will leave you inspired to slow down, connect more deeply, and nurture the voices of the children in your life.
