178 Why Education should be Non Linear for Autistic Students [Tiger Moms Chat with Searmi and Vaish]

Vaish and Searmi return for another Tiger Moms Chat—they talk about “Non Linear Education”. 

From abandoning division to rediscovering the power of poetry, Vaish shares the personal story behind the name Non Linear Education, and both moms reflect on what happens when you stop chasing curriculum and start chasing connection.

Whether you’re new to presuming competence or have been supporting a non-speaker for years, this episode is your permission slip to step out of the box—and into the zone.

What you’ll hear in this episode:
– Why learning doesn’t have to be (and often shouldn’t be) linear
– The myth of the “fluke” and how it holds our kids back
– What flow states and horse training have to do with math and poetry
– Why scaffolding doesn’t always mean breaking things down
– How to shift from building a bridge to weaving a web
