Summary

Disarming SLPs… Guiding SLPs… Standing by SLP…
☝️These are just three powerful purposes of mentorship in our field.

And in part 2 of our mentors episode, MedSLP Ed Mentors Isabel, George, Jessica, and Lori continue to share their humanizing insights into the world of medical SLP mentorship and bring heartwarming stories to the discussion.

Stories like perseverance in the fluoroscopy suite when a young SLP felt the pressure to call it quits - but she chose a different route…
Stories like breaking barriers, building programs, and doing what feels like the impossible in the medical settings as an SLP….

All thanks to the right mentorship.

This episode is a celebration of mentorship and its profound impact on our professional journeys. I hope it sparks your curiosity and inspires you to either seek a mentor or become one.

Remember, mentorship doesn't have to be a formal, long-term commitment. It can be as simple as sharing a piece of advice, a resource, or a word of encouragement.
