Marie, Matt, and Rachel dive into the research and pop news in and related to the field of Speech and Language Pathology.  On this week’s episode they discuss how VR can impact therapy, habit and structure for dementia, and a supreme court ruling in favor of a student in special education.  Matt had the opportunity to speak with Dr. Givonna Sandiford about her new book: SLP Empire: The Door - Laying the Groundwork for Winning Your First State Contract.

Interview:

 Have you ever just been fed up with the daily grind of working as an SLP? Have you tried multiple settings and still you can't find your niche? Our guest today shares how she felt this way but managed to find her calling in the unlikeliest place. She then wrote a book to help others do the same.

Dr. Givona Sandiford went from a frustrated burned out SLP of almost 20 years to forming her own SLP Empire with the help of an amazing team and multiple state contracts in just her first two years of private practice.
