Discover how a board certified health coach is revolutionizing workplace performance by applying behavior analysis principles in organizational settings.

In this episode, Sarah sits down with current supervisee Lisa Vega, who brings a unique perspective as someone transitioning from health coaching to becoming a BCBA.
