Deb and Maria drank a white sparkling wine by Andre Cellars Brut California. They paired the fizzy wine with a smooth Brie cheese. They came to the realization that wine and cheese pairings should be perfect opposites and bring out the best in each other. Maria and Deb assessed and created #goals for their podcast, themselves and each other. Maria has a #goal for more wine and cheese and Deb enthusiastically told listeners their coming plans for T-shirts, a booth and a banner for the ASHA Convention 2018.


Maria and Deb agreed that goal writing should be individualized and encompass the whole client. The overall goal of goal writing is to promote independence, improve quality of life and give clients skills to problem-solve and self-advocate. Goals should also be written as SMART goals and derived from an assessment. Deb and Maria then played "I have a goal for that" game where one provided a brief case study and the other gave a sample goal. Unfortunately, they didn't always remember to use the bell provided.


Deb and Maria described case studies based on a given disorder. They went into detail about different ways of writing and implementing the goals, taking data and breaking down the goals into short term objectives. Maria and Deb discussed goals for: phonology, AAC, articulation, hearing impairment, dysfluency and more.


As per the usual, Deb and Maria stated their quote and then unconventionally ended with their Tip and Trick segment. Since Deb changed the outline of the podcast, they ran out of time which is perfectly fine because...stay tuned for part 2 of our #goals episode series!
