Listen Now: The Spiral Process of Learning!
Listen in to this enlightening conversation that I had with Qiological Podcast Host, Michael Max, to gain some insights into what you can do to make the transition to the clinic a more seamless one. And how you can find more peace and enjoyment at the beginning of your clinical practice.
You are not alone if you feel nervous about making the transition from the classroom to the clinic. And if you are a new practitioner who is struggling with feeling unsure about your abilities, be assured that this is normal and expected. The process of learning something new or making a big transition in life is like a spiral, we keep coming back over and over to the same topics until eventually we feel a sense of knowing and ease.
