It is so important for us as professionals to create a safe space for ourselves and for our patients. Don’t you agree? Private practice allows us to do that. I am talking all about this with Emily McCullough from Parade Pediatric Speech Therapy which is a practice that is committed to providing a safe space for all kids and families on their communication journey. Emily has more than 10 years of experience helping children and teens gain the communication skills they need to connect and interact meaningfully with the people in their lives. She believes that every child brings unique gifts and insights into the therapy process and that parents and caregivers know their child best. Emily values her partnerships with parents and caregivers and working as a team to help children feel proud, successful and empowered communicators! She has extensive training and clinical experience in articulation disorders, receptive and expressive language disorders, autism, and communication disorders in bilingual and culturally and linguistically diverse children. Bilingual in English and Spanish, Emily received her B.A. in Spanish from Guilford College in North Carolina and her M.A. in Communication Sciences and Disorders at the University of Texas at Austin with a certificate in Bilingual Speech-Language Pathology. Emily lives in Austin, TX. For fun, she enjoys getting outside, composing music, reading and spending time with her wife and dog. In Today's Episode, We Discuss:
I love this conversation with Emily because it really highlights how private practice allows SLPs to create an ideal work environment that suits their interests, personality and season of life. I think it's really important for there to be more diversity in the field and also for there to be more diverse options for our patients, so I am glad you got to hear how Emily does this at her private practice. Emily actually got started by joining the Start Your Private Practice System, and we are re-opening the doors to this really soon!

I used to think that SLPs went into private practice because they were greedy and all about the money. I was so wrong, but does that ring true for you too? I realized quickly that’s not the case, and that is what we are talking about in this episode along with the shame and stigma around private practice being all about money. I am getting into the real reasons why SLPs choose private practice as their path! In Today's Episode, We Discuss:
Do the reasons we talk about in this episode sound like ones that interest you too? I would love to know which one of the F’s talked about in this episode is the one that drives you toward private practice the most.

Are you ready to hear a story about taking a leap of faith into private practice? A lot of people probably think that starting a private practice during a pandemic isn’t a good idea, but that is the opposite of how this story goes. I am talking all about this in today’s episode with Calonda Henry from Broad Horizons Speech Therapy. Calonda is the owner of Broad Horizons Speech Therapy, a certified Woman and Minority owned practice in the state of Florida.

The vast majority of her career has been devoted to advocating for all children and families to get the services as well as the support they need. In addition to serving clients in the clinic office, Broad Horizons serves local agencies and schools within the community. While others are waiting for a “better time” to start, Calonda decided to go for it! In Today's Episode, We Discuss:
Calonda decided to let her imposter syndrome go and follow through with her dream of being a business owner. This is so impressive given the timeframe in which she started her private practice and the success she has seen already!
