Our host, Chaundria, shares her own experience—getting a tempting offer for a 13-week contract far away, but realizing that uprooting her life just isn’t an option. She knows, and so do you, that there’s gotta be a better way! This podcast is all about exploring freedom in your career as a technologist without the burnout that often comes with conventional paths. Whether you’re a radiologic or MRI tech, we’re here to open your eyes to alternatives that don't involve living out of a suitcase and feeling like just another number on a recruiter’s list.

We also get to hear stories from fellow imaging professionals like Jordan and Lakeisha, who found their own paths to flexibility and control. Jordan, an MRI tech, hesitated to take a travel contract for years because she didn’t want to leave her family behind. But when she learned about Rochelle Health, she realized she could take short, local contracts that fit her life instead of rearranging it! Lakeisha’s story is equally inspiring, showing how a simple text from a fellow technologist could shift her entire perspective on work-life balance. It’s all about reclaiming your time, people! So, if you’ve been feeling stuck in the grind, this episode is a must-listen. We’re here to remind you that you deserve better than just a 13-week ultimatum from recruiters.
