Fix SLP: Advocacy & Accountability in Speech-Language Pathology

You’re Not Making $60/hour: The Lies Buried in SLP Job Posts


Listen Later

Ready to finally understand what you’re really getting paid—and what’s being kept from you in SLP job listings? In this jaw-dropping episode, Dr. Jeanette Benigas, SLP and Preston Lewis, MS/SLP sit down with Dr. Meredith Harold, SLP, founder of The Informed SLP and Informed Jobs, to expose the hidden red flags in speech-language pathology job postings, the illusion of hourly pay, and the myth of wage transparency in our field. You’ll learn why your “$60/hour” offer might mean you’re actually earning less than $30/hour, how to decode the difference between W-2 vs. 1099 pay, and what employers aren’t telling you about QA paperwork, mileage, and productivity demands.

💥 Plus, we reveal the shocking stat: nearly 40% of job postings do NOT require the CCC—proving what Fix SLP has said all along: you don’t need ASHA’s credential to thrive in this profession.

Whether you're a new grad, a seasoned clinician, or somewhere in between, this episode will arm you with the knowledge to stop settling and start negotiating from power.

🎧 Tune in, take notes, and take your autonomy back.
