Are you a physical therapist grappling with burnout or contemplating the future of the profession? This episode of the Will Power Podcast offers a powerful, hopeful perspective! Join us for an incredibly candid and inspiring conversation with Dr. Heidi Jannenga, co-founder of WebPT and the visionary behind the Rizing Tide Foundation together with her students Davion Enders-Jones and Christy Effendie-Peterson, DPT.

In this deep dive, we explore:

• Discover why, despite challenges like return on investment, PT remains "one of the top ten happiest careers." Hear how defining your personal "why" – whether inspired by a transformative patient experience (like Davian's football injury or Heidi's ACL rehab) or a desire for one-on-one impact (like Christy's shift from college athletics) – is the ultimate defense against burnout.
• Learn how innovative practices are combating burnout and fostering retention by incorporating community involvement and paid outreach into their PTs' roles, allowing for a richer, more meaningful career.
• A crucial discussion on changing the narrative of the profession. Dr. Heidi, Christy and Davion emphasize "knowing our worth" as specialists in musculoskeletal health, advocating for direct access, and leveraging modern platforms like social media to ensure the community recognizes PTs as "the true doctors in the community."
• The mission of the Rizing Tide Foundation – providing substantial scholarships (up to $14,000/year for DPT, $10,000 for residency) to underrepresented students like Davian and Christy. Hear their emotional, firsthand accounts of how these scholarships alleviate financial burdens and provide a vital community, mentorship, and even future employment opportunities.

This episode highlights that while challenges exist, the future of PT is incredibly bright, especially with a "younger, more powerful generation" rising. It's a call to action for the entire industry to "gather and realize our power as experienced owners and leaders" to break through barriers together.
