It is RU OK? day today. Please reach out to your friends, family and these various organisations to gain support and & others.
It was a privilege to share my experiences on this podcast. Hopefully we can all feel more able to share how we are really doing.
I am also doing a fundraiser for the Black Dog institute in the upcoming Adelaide Lumary City to Bay fun run. That was inspired by someone I know who died by su***de only 6 weeks ago. https://citybay22.grassrootz.com/blackdoginstitute/melinda-hull
In recognition of RUOK Day on Thursday 8th September, four members of SPA’s Early Career Reference Group – Brianna Tuckerman, Vivienne Hui, Davina Lo and Julie Sax – explore sources of stress and burn out in speech pathology and how to manage it at four different points along the speech pathology career journey – student, early career, mid-career and later-career.
The group chat to Brittany Fong, Bridget Forrester, Rebecca Reinking and Melinda Hull.
