Dave Mittman is back—and we're talking about what's next for the PA profession. After 50 years in advocacy and leadership (including serving as AAPA President), Dave breaks down why the “experiment worked,” why PA modernization is the real conversation (not “scope creep”), and what changes are already reshaping our day-to-day practice.We dig into full practice and practice-level decision-making, title change momentum, why self-governance matters (hello, PA boards), and how interstate compacts could transform telemedicine and multi-state work. We also get practical: how you introduce yourself, how your clinic markets you, why your referrals should come back to you, and why the white coat conversation isn't about vanity—it's about clarity and credibility.If you've ever felt like the profession is evolving faster than your workplace policies… this episode is your roadmap.Here's what you'll learn:Why PA “modernization” is bigger than one policy change—and why it's happening nowThe shift from legislation-driven rules to practice-level determination of scope and competenceWhy “scope creep” is a distraction (and what PAs are actually asking for)How title change impacts public understanding—and why waiting for laws may be unnecessaryWhat interstate compacts could unlock for telemedicine, specialty care, and accessThe professionalism pieces that matter: intros, signage, marketing, referrals, and perceptionWhy advocacy can't be “someone else's job” anymoreSPONSORS: CM&F INSURANCE www.cmfgroup.com/ThePAIsIn Keywords: PA modernization, physician associate, physician assistant profession future, full practice authority PAs, PA title change, PA board of medicine, PA self-governance, practice-level scope of practice, interstate compact for PAs, PA licensure compact, PA telemedicine multi-state, scope creep AMA, administrative burden PAs, PA advocacy, professional identity in healthcare, PA white coat patient perception, DMSC for PAs, PA doctorate, PA specialty competency, CAQ, PA leadership

This lady! I'd never met Venee, but I saw a FB reel she'd made about her unicorn job; underneath her words, I sensed she was longing for something more, so I invited her on the podcast to talk about it. She's open and honest about why a perfect job might not be perfect for everyone and how she's discerning her next right step and giving herself permission to honor her gut over her guilt. This is a powerful episode CHOCK FULL of delicious pearls of wisdom, I wrote down 22 key points, but here are the top 10! Just because a job feels like a unicorn for one person doesn't mean it'll be a unicorn job for every person, and just because a job starts out wonderful doesn't mean it'll always be a perfect fit, we change, our needs change, and our jobs change.   Pay attention to the pull toward something different and practice tuning out guilt and fear of missing out.   If you don't listen to your inner guidance, you might always wonder “what if” about risks, leaps, and opportunities.   When you're frustrated or unhappy, look first at yourself and your own narrative.  What story are you telling yourself?  What are you feeling?  When you feel a sense of unease, get quiet, and get yourself away from the noise of everyday life.  It's when you get alone you can hear what's really going on.   Ask yourself what you're feeling.  If you don't sit in it, you'll blame your discontent on other people and things external to you.     Validation comes from within, Only you can put that stamp of validation on you.    Burnout can look like a candle dimming; everything can look great on paper, but that inner spark is slowly dimming.  Every time you ignore that gut instinct, you're ignoring your inner wisdom.   What is “Christmas happy” for you?  How can you incorporate that into your everyday life?  Identify what aligns with your passions.    The stories we tell ourselves determine how we move through life, so pay attention to how you script your experience.  Challenge it. Look at the opposite.  What if you COULD?   You can't change the past; just look at what you'll do to better yourself for tomorrow.  Focus on this, and know that you don't have all the answers.  It's all a learning process, there's no finish line.   CONNECT TO VENEE: Facebook, Instagram, Linked In COACHING Group coaching for January is now closed, but shoot me an email if you'd like to be included in the next round hope.cook@gmail.com Schedule a complimentary ⁠⁠discovery call ⁠⁠https://calendly.com/hopecook/complimentary-discovery-call Learn more about 1:1 coaching ⁠⁠here⁠⁠ CONNECT: ⁠⁠Hope's Website: www.coachhopecook.com⁠⁠ ⁠⁠Hope's IG @coachhopecook⁠⁠ ⁠⁠Hope's FB @hopeallencook⁠⁠ ⁠⁠Hope's Linked In: hope-cook-56041283/⁠⁠ ⁠⁠Hope's YouTube @coachhopecook⁠⁠ Email: hope.cook@gmail.com Love y'all, and remember: There's always hope!

Raquelle, "Rocky" Akavan did something amazing, but it probably didn't feel all that big at the time. She craved a group of fellow PA moms to talk to, so she created a small Facebook group for PA moms. Little did she know it would eventually grow to 19,000 members only 8 years later and become one of the largest special interest groups of AAPA (the national PA organization). The group is like a professional home filled with friends I talk to and share advice, as well as tips and tricks for surviving motherhood, marriage, and my career. It's become a way of empowering and advocating for our profession by a shared vision and a group of moms who can get $hit done! I wanted to highlight Rocky and let her tell her story of how it all started and what she went through along the way. As she says, it takes a village (and gives credit to her amazing team of PA Moms who work 24/7 to keep the group going). Take home points: If there's something lacking in your and it's not already available, take the brave step and create it! Spend time figuring out your core values, and reassess them periodically, then use them to make any decision.    Set aside time with no phones or screens.  Everything else can wait.   Good leaders have to implement boundaries, which in turn, gives everyone on the team permission to set boundaries.   Burnout is multifactorial, for some it's all about their work, but relationships and health also contribute.  You are not alone.   If you start feeling overwhelmed or burned out, use this as a sign to step back and reevaluate; ask yourself what needs to shift?  You're never really stuck; even when it feels like it.  There are so many more choices.   Stay true to yourself by really spending time getting to know yourself and what's important to you.   YOLO: You only live once so ask yourself what would create a life with no regrets and use that as your guide.   Personal IG: Raquelle Akavan, DMSc, PA-C (@dr.rocky_pa) and FB: https://www.facebook.com/rocky.akavan/ PA Mom IG: https://www.instagram.com/pa_moms/ PA Moms® - Physician Associate Moms | Facebook PA Mom website: ⁠PA Moms – Physician Associate Moms⁠ Guess what, Y'all?

Osteoporosis significantly impacts morbidity and mortality in the U.S., with approximately 12.3 million adults (USPSTF) in the United States aged 50 and over expected to be living with the disease. Osteoporotic fractures result in severe consequences such as functional impairment, chronic pain, reduced quality of life, and loss of independence.

John is an inspiration, especially if you've thrived at the top of your game only to realize it wasn't "filling your cup." John realized he was letting work be the driver of his life, and it wasn't very fulfilling. He made the courageous decision to talk to management and admit he was burned out, but they weren't willing to make changes. So he decided it was up to him to make the change. Hear how he made the shift to academics and the effect this had on the other areas of his life. You can find John on Linked In or FB. He's also sharing his email if you want to contact him! If you liked what you heard and want help with your own burnout journey, I'd love to talk. I'm writing a book on how to heal from burnout (due out 1/25), and I have a group coaching starting June 11th.
