The ASHA Convention That Changed Everything

In this episode, Colleen Ashford, MS/SLP, joins Dr. Jeanette Benigas, SLP, to share her first-time experience at the ASHA convention. She takes us inside the ASHA leadership Q&A at this year’s convention, where only a small handful of attendees showed up out of 13,000.From overhearing conversations about extravagant dinners to realizing how disconnected leadership is from the membership, Colleen takes us inside a space most clinicians never see. Her journey led her to a powerful decision: dropping the CCC.If you’re rethinking your ASHA membership, the CCC, or your role in shaping this field, this episode offers hard truths and a fresh perspective. Tune in as we challenge the systems holding clinicians back and prove that change doesn’t happen by waiting. It happens by fixing it.Want to earn some PDHs or CEUs with a discount?
