Building Confident Communicators with Jeaneen Tang
In this episode of All Abilities, No Filter, we sit down with Jeaneen Tang, a speech-language pathologist, author, and proud mom of a neurodivergent son, for an open and inspiring conversation about communication, connection, and confidence.
With more than 24 years of experience supporting children and adults with neurodiversity, Jeaneen dives deep into what speech therapy really is — and how it helps students find their voice, build relationships, and thrive. She also shares how her personal journey as a parent has shaped her passion for helping others communicate and connect in meaningful ways.
We explore her new book, PLAY DUMB & SABOTAGE, along with the companion workbook and workshops she’s created for parents and educators. Her goal? To make early language development approachable, fun, and preventative — helping families raise confident communicators and reduce the need for formal therapy down the road.
This episode is full of insight, laughter, and practical takeaways for anyone supporting a child’s communication journey. Tune in and discover why “playing dumb” might just be the smartest thing you can do.
