Medical assisting has become one of the most sought after and recruitable professions. In this podcast we share stories, interviews, cohosts and conversations about medical conditions, our own opinions and the life in medical assisting. In the early 90s when medical assisting first become available to medical practices, this was a very simple position entailed by answering phones, filing and minimal back office skills. Since then much has changed, the medical assistant has become the integral component of any practice. This admirable profession deserves its proper acknowledgment in the ranks.

    Many of us feel stuck in our current workplace or career path. Some of us know we want to do it but don't have the inner strength to start, or just don't know where to start or just frightened to even begin the journey. If it hasn't been for my education, I would not be where I am today. I'm lucky enough that I've had the opportunity afforded to me, and recently I've had to work harder for it. But this can be done and obtained. You've got a real look within yourself and understand who you are and what you really want out of life, and just start the journey. --- This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast. https://anchor.fm/app
