There is a moral and ethical imperative to address burnout in physicians." So says the Mayo Clinic and such is Sarah's passion for addressing burnout in our own ABA field. This isn't a 'nice to have' for ABA organizations, it's a must. Sarah's a lively and engaging breath of fresh air: though she's self-admittedly from "the Jurassic Age" as the 1,000th-ish BCBA, she brings a very direct perspective and message to ABA owners to get this right. But she also has a powerful message for individual BCBAs, RBTs, leaders, and owners that we must "recognize our own blind spots" and be part of the solution, not part of the problem. Enjoy, kind listener!
