325: From Training to Mastery: The Role of Education in Modern Electrology with Joanie Gonella from Electrology Education Coalition

In this episode of the ABIC Podcast, we’re joined by Joanie Gonella, Certified Professional Electrologist, educator, and co-founder of the Electrology Education Coalition, to explore the role education plays in shaping competent, ethical and confident electrology practitioners.With over two decades of clinical and teaching experience, Joanie shares why strong foundational training is critical, how gaps in early education can surface later in practice, and why ongoing learning — including the willingness to unlearn outdated methods — is essential as technology and client expectations evolve.This conversation examines education not as a one-time qualification, but as a long-term commitment that directly impacts treatment outcomes, professional judgement and career sustainability.This episode is brought to you by Electrology Education CoalitionThe ABIC Podcast is an independent podcast that operates with the support of our listeners (that’s you!)
