About the show
Many of the problems facing public education aren’t as complicated as we’ve been led to believe.
Every episode of The Obvious Fix Podcast is for district leadership and educators looking for realistic, common-sense ideas that can be implemented today. We’re skipping the buzzwords and the sweeping initiatives to focus entirely on the obvious fixes you and your team can actually control. Hear lively debate, insightful anecdotes, and stories from the field that will help you shake loose the status quo and recognize the easy wins within arm’s reach.
Hosted by Adrienne DiMatteo, Ed.S.
The Obvious Fix is hosted by Adrienne DiMatteo, Ed.S., co-founder and CEO of SageReport. Trained in urban school psychology at Brooklyn College, she spent over a decade serving high-demand school communities in New York City, Los Angeles, and Atlanta before building SageReport to give providers more time for students.
The show grew out of the conversations Adrienne keeps having with district leaders and educators nationwide: someone names an opportunity to easily improve standard practice that everyone agrees is attainable, yet nothing materializes despite apparent consensus. Each episode has the feel of one of those talks over coffee: candid, generous, and solution-oriented. Guests are practitioners and educational leaders identifying easy wins for their colleagues in the field — not pundits complaining about the system.
The show isn’t a sales pitch. It’s a conversation — one we couldn’t help making.
The Obvious Fix is produced by the team behind SageReport — a tool that drafts evaluation reports for school psychs, OTs, and SLPs. When it’s genuinely relevant we’ll mention it. The rest of the time it’s just practitioners talking about the work.
