📘 **Episode Synopsis (for podcast directories):

In this powerful episode, Dr. Joey Weisler welcomes Frances Shefter—former special education teacher turned education attorney—for a heartfelt conversation on what it means to advocate for students within (and often against) the system. As the founder of Shefter Law PA and the visionary behind the “Stress-Free IEP” method, Frances opens up about her journey from the classroom to the courtroom, shares the hard truths about bureaucratic barriers, and reminds educators and parents alike of the simple, radical idea: focus on the child. Whether you’re a teacher quietly trying to do what’s right, a parent learning to navigate IEPs and 504 plans, or a leader in search of human-centered solutions, this conversation will move you, challenge you, and equip you.
