Whitney McMullin joins us on the Speech Source Podcast with an insightful conversation that shares her experience of balancing contract work with the entrepreneurial spirit. She discusses how she sidestepped the pressures of productivity quotas to craft a career that's both fulfilling and flexible. Her journey is a testament to setting boundaries that work with her dual role as a clinician and mother.
We discuss contracting with companies, her unique hybrid approach with ECI (Early Childhood Intervention) and a mobile private practice, the importance of knowing personal clinical strengths and when to refer out to other clinicians, creativity in childcare as a working mom, ways to organically get referrals, and travel boundaries as a mobile SLP and staying on schedule. Whitney's candid reflections on the joys and challenges of creating the ideal work situation will be relatable to all clinicians! Plus, we delve into effective parent coaching techniques and the importance of self-care, as Whitney opens up about personal growth and the strategic decisions she's made to preserve her well-being during this busy but exciting season of life.
