Show Notes
<p>“I have a pretty controversial topic. I'm usually known for pushing the boundary a little bit.”</p>
<p>☝️If there were ever a sequence of words that will make heads turn and ears perk, it’s THAT!</p>
<p>Join me in this week’s episode of the Swallow Your Pride Podcast where I had the absolute honor of digging into SLP challenges, gray areas, and pushing the envelope in our field with Monica Lupo, M.A., CCC-SLP, TSSLD, CDP, LSVT-C, CLTS.</p>
<p>Monica is the owner of Speak Your Legacy Inc., a private practice and mobile FEES business serving adults and pediatrics in New York. During this discussion, Monica challenges SLPs to ask themselves questions like…“Why do I practice the way I do?” and “How can I change what I’m doing?”</p>
<p>Monica shares which hill she will die on, mobile FEES, and holes in our scope of practice (my head almost snapped with how hard I was nodding).</p>
<p>Tune in and join the discussion!</p>
