Change doesn’t come by asking nicely—it comes by saying NO when it matters most. In this episode, we’re taking a hard look at boundaries, advocacy, and why protecting yourself is non-negotiable.
Dr. Jeanette Benigas, SLP, and Preston Lewis, MS/SLP, listen to real-world stories from clinicians who stood their ground against unsafe workplaces, unethical demands, and toxic cultures. From walking away from dangerous jobs to refusing to alter documentation under pressure, you’ll hear raw, unfiltered experiences that show why knowing when—and how—to say "no" is a critical skill in today's speech-language pathology landscape. This is your blueprint for reclaiming your power, setting unapologetic boundaries, and building a career you’re proud of.
Because fixing SLP means fixing how we are treated, and it starts with you.
