New SLPs are burning out—and it’s not their fault.
In this episode, Dr. Jeanette Benigas, SLP talks with Nikki Rosner, MA/SLP and Hylan Noble, MS/SLP from The Mentorship Collective about the growing mentorship crisis in speech-language pathology. Together, they unpack why so many new grads feel overwhelmed, unsupported, and unprepared in their first year—and what can be done to fix it.
We talk about the problems with traditional new graduate supervision models, the role of mentorship in preventing SLP burnout, and the urgent need to move away from ASHA-branded language (such as certified fellow and CF) in state licensure and job requirements. Whether you're a seasoned SLP supervising a student or a new grad wondering if you picked the wrong field, this episode is packed with perspective, real-world strategies, and hard truths.
Don't forget to download and listen to You Don't Say! SLP Real Talk, Advice and Strategies, and show Nikki and Hylan some love with a ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ and review so even more SLPs can find their information.
