Let me tell you 5 things nutrition enthusiasts NEVER eat....oh wait. #mybad We. Eat. EVERYTHING. Including cake + pizza - occasionally :)

Since I haven’t used X in more than 6 months, I will very likely make the decision to sign off this app for the last time, sometime early in the new year. Please send me a DM if you would like to stay in touch and/or follow me on IG, LinkedIn etc. Much gratitude, Chantelle 🩵🫶

Long time, no tweet! 2023 has been a HUGE year, graduating with a Master of Speech Pathology degree @UTS_GSH and thriving in my first 8 months as a new graduate speech pathologist and feeding therapist! 🥹🎓💫 THANK YOU to everyone for your incredible support on & off the app 🙏

@DrEmmaBeckett This vibe! 😍🌈

The fear and anxiety created by avoiding or demonising "junk" foods isn't healthy either...

@MeganLeePhD Yesterday’s one was HARD 😂😅

@HealthDisrupter Thanks for the recommendation - good one

Wahooo! I have roped all my colleagues into this game and I’m not mad about it 😅 Connections Puzzle #19 🟦🟦🟦🟦 🟨🟨🟨🟨 🟪🟪🟪🟪 🟩🟩🟩🟩

@speechieLO Yes! I should do this more with my early intervention and speech sound kiddos! They just love rolling it 😂

Day 2 of the July Intensive, and I've been having fun with this "DTTC dice". The nice people at Kmart call it an emotions dice, but I'm using it practice varying intonation patterns. kmart.com.au/product/emotio… #mySLTday #WeSpeechies #apraxia #dysarthria #motorspeech

@drcaitlinhurley @SharynneMcLeod @UWAresearch @IAPD_World Congratulations!

Surprised and honoured to receive the Morita Award for research at #IAPD2023 I wouldn’t be here without my supervisors Robert Anthonappa and @SharynneMcLeod - to work with two of the BEST is a privilege. This is easily a career highlight 🌟 @UWAresearch @IAPD_World

😎🙃Ridiculously happy to have confirmed the #cssd3e cover design ISBN 9781119743118 🔭Watch out for it in Nov 2023! The photo, "Aboriginal boy & Caucasian girl" is by Gary Radler, chosen because they remind me of two children I saw who USED TO HAVE ssd. garyradler.com/Stock/Aborigin…

@denniss_emily @Rebecca_L_L Amazing Bec! Would love to hear more about this ☺️

@Rebecca_L_L presents her impressive body of work on the important topic of food insecurity in families with young children. Beck is working toward a more comprehensive way to measure food insecurity. #ISBNPA2023

First winter sickness as a speechie has not been so fun 🤒🤧. Been down & out at home all week! 🫠🤯🙈

@ProfCCollins discusses the impact of the No Money No Time project. Some very impressive statistics on the reach of this nutrition communication work! Clare also highlights the importance of media and communications for nutrition and PA - I couldn’t agree more! 👏🏼👏🏼

Can’t believe my first month as a #speechie has FLOWN by! 🥳 I’ve loved getting to know my new clients, families, & colleagues! Really excited to work with more feeding clients, facilitate a range of assessments, and the start #SoundsWrite literacy course next month 😍

@speechieLO @tricmc @SpeechieKat I honestly just make mine up in Canva. But if you have any nice visuals, feel free to send it my way!

I feel like I've seen a nice visual for the Sounds-Beats-Smoothness for ReST therapy, but can't find it. Does anyone know what I'm talking about? @tricmc ? @SpeechieKat was it you who shared it? #CAS #Apraxia #slpeeps #wespeechies

@EmRusciano That’s 1000% fair enough that you don’t feel you have the capacity to do ‘more’ right now. Exploring the inner workings of your own ND magic brain is valid and IMPORTANT! Nothing to feel guilty about here! 💜🌈🧠🦄🙏💫

@JasperPeachSays OMG. Immediately *adds to cart* and updates vocab 😭❤️🦒. But seriously tho, how do I not have stuffed animals in my speech room yet?! 🥹

It’s a big NOPE from me… 😬

@FoodLabSydney @alana_mann @DSchlosberg Congratulations! What an exciting next chapter! 🥳
