"I hate my job and everyone says push through" - should you actually quit?


Listen Later

Should you quit? It's the question nobody in allied health wants to say out loud.

In our first Q&A episode, Joey and Emily answer two raw, real questions - a first-year Speech Pathologist on the verge of burnout who hates every day at work, and an OT student who thinks the whole profession is a scam.

What we cover:

  • When "push through" is good advice - and when it isn't
  • What early burnout actually looks like vs normal new-grad struggle
  • How to know if you're in the wrong job, the wrong setting, or just the wrong headspace
  • What we would tell our younger selves in those exact moments

No judgement. No toxic positivity. Just honest answers.
