Ep 330: Empowering Children’s Oral Health featuring ‘Ms. Tongue and Friends’ with Tricia Rogers, MS, CCC-SLP
This week on The Untethered Podcast™, Hallie is joined by Tricia Rogers, a speech-language pathologist specializing in orofacial myofunctional disorders. With over 30 years of clinical experience, Tricia brings passion and creativity to the forefront of children’s oral health education through her charming book series, Ms. Tongue and Friends.
In this episode, Tricia shares her journey into writing and self-publishing, the inspiration behind the characters, and how the books are helping children understand the importance of nasal breathing, proper oral posture, and healthy oral habits.
Hallie and Tricia also explore the behind-the-scenes challenges of authoring a children’s series, the power of visual learning and repetition, and Tricia’s broader vision for normalizing myofunctional concepts in early childhood settings.
