The Miseducated Speech Language Pathologist: The Journey to a Decolonized Mind is Ingrid Desormes’ deeply personal exploration of what happens when we begin questioning the beliefs, expectations, and systems that have shaped how we understand ourselves and the world around us.

Drawing from her own experiences as a communication expert and scientist, Ingrid traces her own process of recognizing colonization in her life and examines how colonized thinking can shape the way we live our day to day lives. 

Blending memoir, history, spirituality, humor, poetry, and candid coaching conversations, Ingrid invites readers to begin dismantling the systems that keep us bound and forge our own paths forward. She explores the difference between comfort and freedom, the beliefs we inherit from the systems around us, the power we have buried to abide by them, and the possibility that our freedom is something we can simply choose. 

The Miseducated Speech Language Pathologist is for those who are ready to say yes to a life that feels much easier and refuse to uphold the systems that keep us bound to the hamster wheel.

It is for the curious, the tired, the rebellious, and even the stubborn among us who have begun to suspect that there must be another way.
