Once upon a time, I wasn’t a Speech-Language Pathologist. Crazy right? My identify for so many years, has been that I am an SLP. But yes, before I went into the field I was actually a golfer. That was my identify for the majority of my life. My dad, Charlie Mahon, is a Class A PGA Golf Professional. My older brother, Charlie Mahon Jr., ran golf courses for most of his career and played for UMKC in college. My older sister, Courtney Mahon, she is now an LPGA Teaching Instructor and played for the University of Arkansas in college. My mom, our biggest cheerleader! I guess you can say I was born into a golfing family and it appeared that golf would be my destiny. I played golf throughout high school and then moved onto earning a scholarship to play for Missouri State University. I learned so many life lessons from playing golf. I learned how to be patient with myself and patient with others. I learned about ethics, being a good teammate, and how to work incredibly hard. I lea...

I am very excited to share this great FREE application! TalkingTiles is an Augmentative Alternative Communication (AAC) application that can be used on the iPad, a desktop, android, etc...

At the start of 2019, I sat down and started to write out my goals. Oh boy, I made some pretty lofty goals for myself! One of them was to get back to writing consistently in this blog! As I started drafting this post, I decided to open up the blog and see how long ago it was since I last wrote. Guys, it was September of 2017! What in the world happened? Where did the time go?   Ha! I’ll tell you exactly where all of the time went…   To this little man right here! He is such a ham! 2017-2018 was a world-wind for my family! My son, Benjamin, turned one. He is now 19 months, can you believe it? But after he turned one we were hit with ear infection after ear infection. He eventually needed bilateral tubes which somewhat helped. He actually had his left tube replaced less then a month ago because it wouldn’t drain. Mama life is not for the faint of heart!   When I wasn’t spending all of my time with my little guy, I was finishing up my clinical d...
