015 – S1 E14 – How might we equip students with the support(s) they need to be successful?

homeroom is an international podcast bridging the education gap between the classroom and the living room by starting conversations impacting the next generation. In this episode, I speak with Sabreen, a writer, podcast producer, and therapist for autistic children—about how her early interests in how human brains worked, along with her family’s high expectations of her while growing up in Sudan impacted her academic trajectory when she ultimately immigrated to Canada. We talked about how a significant health challenge in her early 20s altered her course, and how finding the help she needed allowed her to get back on track.
