Shirley's Soliloquies

February 24

"The King's Speech": a speech therapist
helps a king find his voice, and believe in himself.
I spent 33.5 years in my speech therapy career
helping children find their voices.
This movie affirmed for me
the value of my life's work, the importance
of treating the whole person, and not just the
"stutter."
For the past 15 years, I've focused
on finding and growing
my own poetic voice.
"Voice" is a major theme in my life!
