This episode is about confidence, imposter syndrome and one mindset shift that has made a huge difference in Tabitha's first year as a hand therapist.

As a new graduate, it's easy to feel like you have to prove yourself. She felt that pressure early on, but learned that some of the biggest moments of growth came when she stopped trying to have all the answers and started embracing the learning process. In this episode, Tabitha shares why asking questions, learning from mistakes and being open to feedback have actually made her a stronger clinician.

If you're a student, new grad or early career therapist who's ever questioned whether you belong, this episode is for you.
