The Edutainer with Dr. Erin L. Albert

I seriously was on the fence again about crawling through this week - but it's in the bag, and the frog is slowly clearing out of my throat - woot!

Here's what's up:

1. Ascp.com/annual - party like it's 1969 with 1000 of your closest pharmacy friends!

2. Podcasting 101 - it's not too late to get your very own podcasting party started in the new decade!

3. Giblets on my own latest certificate that I earned this week - yay! And hey - what certifications, certificates or professional designations are YOU going for this year or next?

So, the experiment continues here at the podcast! I'm bringing on this time Helen Weinberg, P4 Butler APPE Pharmacy Major on rotation with me at Butler/ASCP this fall remotely, to get her impressions of why she chose this rotation, and what she hopes to get out of it. I'll have a part 2 post rotation follow up with her as well - after our annual meeting, hopefully it's all good! (They're a lot of work to pull off with 1000 friends.)

Here's Helen's LinkedIn Profile: https://www.linkedin.com/in/helen-weinberg/

And BTW - if you're a current P3 pharmacy major shopping for APPE rotations next year - stop by our page and application, which will close 12/15/19 for the 2020-2021 academic year: https://www.ascp.com/appe 

What's your reason for being? Ikigai? Raison d'etre? Values? What do you want to leave behind?

Don't know? Haven't thought about it?

What if I told you you could figure it out...while playing a board game?

Voila! Check out my conversation with Joseph Weissgold from After, about his company's new Kickstarter campaign for Now & Then - a brand new board game that talks about end of life and legacy in a fun way!

Check out: nowandthen.xyz or https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/after/nowandthen for all the details! The campaign runs from now until November 16th.

Here's ONE good thing about Monday: a fresh start!
