Beyond These Clinic Walls
Hi there and welcome to the Beyond These Clinic Walls podcast!
I'm Jules, your host and a former Physical Therapist turned product professional. Joining me are my delightful co-hosts and founders of The Clinician Transition, Emma Brady and Emily Kelly. Each episode, we interview former rehab professionals who have successfully leveraged their clinical skills in non-traditional roles. We invite you to listen to their journeys, explore their career paths, and discover the opportunities beyond these clinic walls.
Happy listening!
