Two Peds On A Pod

It's Autism Acceptance Month, and we need to talk about something that's been bothering us: the careless misuse of therapy terminology to sell programs that have zero qualified professionals behind them. We're calling out "sensory groups" and "regulation programs" being advertised by people with no training in sensory processing, autism, or anything relevant—and why...

In this episode we take a deeper look at eating habits. Does it border on the line of discomfort or disorder? Everyone experiences food differently and today we are looking into how varied sensory processing can lead to differing manners when consuming nutrients.

Let's talk about friendship—the good, the messy, and the stuff nobody really prepares you for. We're diving into what makes a friendship work, how to show up for people, and why adult friendships feel so much more complicated than they used to. From setting boundaries to knowing when to hold on and when to let go, we're getting real about maintaining meaningful connections. Whether you're trying t...

Plot twist: we took an accidental hiatus. Oops. But we're back now and ready to fill you in on what's been going on— the community work that's been keeping us busy, and why January got away from us. We're also diving into some real talk about friendship, supporting each other through hard seasons, and the messy reality of trying to take care of yourself while also showing up for th...

It's the last episode of 2025, so we're doing what everyone does at the end of the year—reflecting and rambling. There's no real theme here, just two friends talking about where we've been and where we're headed. Thanks for sticking with us through our first couple of episodes—here's to more chaos in 2026!

Let's talk about sensory processing—what it is, how it works, and why it matters for literally everyone (not just kids in therapy). We break down the basics of sensory systems, then get personal about our own sensory quirks—the textures we can't stand, the sounds that drive us crazy, and the moments we've struggled despite being therapists who should "know better." We explain...

In this episode we bring on a guest, Daiana Bernard a licensed mental health counsler, to talk about the stigmas surrounding mental health. We discuss cultural and families impacts as well as a community event we will be hosting with her, to help parents in their mental health journeys. Find video and uncut version on YouTube @twopedsonapod Daiana's practice can be found here: https://meaningf...

We're busting myths, correcting records, and honestly just venting a little. From "you just play with kids all day" to "they'll outgrow it," we're tackling the most common misconceptions about OT and SLP—and why they actually matter. We'll talk some of the wildest things people have said to us about our jobs. Whether you're a parent, a fellow therapist, or just someone who's curious what we actual...

Welcome to the very first episode of Two Peds on a Pod! In this episode, we introduce ourselves, share how we ended up in pediatric therapy (and why we're still here), and explain what this podcast is actually about. Spoiler: it's comedy first, education second.
