Ep. 54 - Behind the Microphone: Reflections and Lessons Learned [Fall 2023 Internship Program Recap]

Show Notes

In this final episode of 2023, I meet with the women behind the scenes of the podcast production of Fall 2023! I’m thankful I got to meet with the Fall 2023 interns of the MYE - SLP L.L.C. Internship program one last time before the New Year!  

Join us for an inspiring blend of laughter, stories, and wisdom as we traverse the dynamic world of Speech through the eyes of the Fall 2023 Interns. Don't miss out on the excitement - tune in as we discuss:

• Each member’s “why” for joining the field and the program

• Balancing mental health and busy schedules

• Why SLPs should use their voices more

• How to overcome fear of being seen 

• Mindset shifts for achieving your goals

This episode was previously recorded on the Melanie Y. Evans Network on Youtube. You can watch the visual episode HERE.
