In the second episode of the "SLPs and Hustle Culture Series," I'm unpacking the difference between "busy" and "productive" and how our obsession with being busy is killing our time management. And in a world where so many believe that the more we accomplish in a day, the more successful we are, it's easy to fall victim to the trap of hustle culture. What if instead, we focused on quality over quantity: in other words, getting the right things done rather than getting the most things done? How might that lead to better work-life balance?

If you're an SLP in the United States, then I'm sure you're well aware of the recent announcement regarding the increase in ASHA dues beginning in the 2025 membership year. There has been LOTS of "discussion" (to put it nicely) amongst the members of our field and I felt compelled to discuss the topic in the SLP Support Group on Facebook. In this FB Live, I'm sharing some coaching questions to help sort through the thoughts and emotions that so many of us are experiencing right now.

Today's episode is my unique perspective on session notes and how I'm able to get them done with less time and energy than ever before.  Let's face it, session notes (any documentation, really) are one of the worst parts about the job. We got into this field to help people, not to spend endless amounts of time consumed by paperwork. In fact, session notes are probably one of the top five most frequently coached about topics with my coaching clients. That's why I'm spending today's session exploring five unique ways to reconsider session notes so that they become easier and easier to accomplish. Trust me, you won't think of session notes the same way again!Are you sick and tired of feeling overwhelmed by all the things? I can help. Schedule a free consult today.

One of the most common things I hear coaching clients tell me is that they want to be "consistent" at XYZ. Doesn't much matter what the "thing" is--it could be exercising, meal planning, self-care, not taking work home with them, etc--consistency is always part of the goal. The trouble with  the desire to be consistent, though, is that it quite often derails us from reaching our goals. In today's short-and-sweet episode, I'm breaking down what consistency means and how we can create it for ourselves. If you've struggled with starting and stopping, staying "on track," gaining momentum and then hitting a wall, then tune in to today's episode for some inspiration and support.
