SoCal Voices
SoCal Voices is an award-winning podcast that shares authentic stories and local wisdom to help Southern Californians navigate the region’s challenges and thrive in the place we call home.
Beyond the stunning coastline, golden sunsets, and endless calendar of world-class events and experiences… lies a different story.
Sky-high living costs. Soul-crushing commutes. The quiet ache for connection and purpose in the middle of all this sprawl.

Because Southern California isn’t just a dream. It’s a real place — and you deserve to feel grounded in it.

Bibi Pirayesh - Educational Therapy, Learning Disabilities & Social Justice
Bibi Pirayesh is an educational therapist based in Los Angeles. For 15 years her work has focused on helping children, families, and schools better understand the unique needs of kids with learning disabilities. More recently, her work has shifted toward the fight for the learning rights of kids in LA, where children's educational experiences are directly linked to their socio-economic status.
On this edition of SoCal Voices, Bibi shares her views on learning disability as a social justice issue and outlines the changes needed to better-serve our children.
