It is no secret that COVID has had an immense effect on everyone, especially students and graduates. While it has also affected the continuation of work, some may call this period as an unintentional opportunity to improve their skillset or to reflect on their practice.

In this episode, Soya is joined by new graduate music therapists, Laura Elliott and Michelle How. They reflect on their journeys in becoming RMTs whilst studying the course in different states (NSW & VIC), and chat about the future of music therapy when it comes to telehealth and face-to-face sessions.

Oh, and they participate in "Are You Musical?", a quiz about all things music and music therapy - who will be the winner?
