Summary

With (we hope) the COVID-19 pandemic nearing its end, many behavior analysts find themselves facing burnout for the first time after the past two, grueling years. And while opening up an Etsy store to finally sell all those beer koozies you knitted during lockdown might make for a fun summer project, it might not do much to keep your performing at a top level. Luckily, our special guest, Dr. Julie Slowiak, is here to teach you a new type of craft: job crafting! We learn all about updates to what professional self-care might look like in our brave new world, and how you may be able to re-energize in your current job without breaking the bank on yarn and glitter.

This episode is available for 1.0 LEARNING CEU.

Hey everybody. Welcome to ABA Inside Track, the podcast that's like reading in your car, but safer.

0:18.9

I'm your host Robert Perry Cruz, and with as always, are my fabulous co-hosts.

0:23.9

It's me, Jackie.

0:25.7

And it's me, Diana.

0:26.7

Hello.

0:27.3

Wow.

0:27.9

So for those of you who weren't here recording it, which is only us at our very special

0:31.3

guest, we had to do a take two on that one, apparently the...

0:34.8

Rob just stopped mid-sentence.

0:36.2

I just stopped mid-sentence. I just stopped mid-sentence. I just stared at Jackie.

0:39.9

I gave her, like, a non-verbal cue to say it was me and Jackie, but it wasn't her line yet.

0:44.1

It wasn't, it's me Jackie time.

0:45.4

That's what I apologize to all the listeners out there who now have heard a thing that didn't

0:48.1

exist.

0:48.8

But this isn't a podcast about things that they didn't know, that you didn't know about because you weren't here. I mean, I guess it could be, but, you know, not that type of thing you didn't know about.

0:56.9

pick a topic and we discuss relevant research articles.

1:05.8

In some weeks, we are very lucky in that one of those research articles has an author who joins us to talk about the

process of writing the research to answer all of our deep burning questions. And this week,

1:19.8

one of these weeks I'm going to say, this week is not one of those weeks, but this week it is

1:22.7

one of those weeks where we have a very special guest, Dr. Julie Sloiac.
