People behind Pharma
Stella – Von der PTA in den Pharma Außendienst – ehrliche Einblicke in einen Karrierewechsel

In dieser Folge von People Behind Pharma erzählt Stella offen von ihrem Weg von der PTA in der öffentlichen Apotheke in den pharmazeutischen Außendienst. Gemeinsam mit Johanna spricht sie über ihre Motivation für den Wechsel, persönliche Herausforderungen und die Learnings, die sie auf diesem Weg geprägt haben. Schon früh war für Stella klar, dass sie mehr wollte. Nach ihrer PTA-Ausbildung sammelte sie bewusst Erfahrung in der Apotheke – ein Fundament, das ihr später im Außendienst enorm geholfen hat. Besonders spannend ist ihr Blick auf den Perspektivwechsel: Wie erlebt man Außendienstmitarbeitende aus Apothekensicht – und was macht wirklich einen positiven Eindruck? Für Stella sind Verlässlichkeit, ehrliche Absprachen und die gezielte Einbindung von PTAs entscheidend. Sie berichtet von ihren ersten Erfahrungen im Arztaußendienst und dem späteren Wechsel in den Apothekenaußendienst – inklusive Herausforderungen wie Alleinarbeit im Gebiet, Verkaufsdruck und schwierigen Gesprächen. Offen spricht sie darüber, wie wichtig es ist, Rückschläge nicht persönlich zu nehmen und an ihnen zu wachsen. Stella macht Mut: Man muss weder laut noch klischeehaft auftreten, um im Außendienst erfolgreich zu sein. Authentizität, Beziehungspflege und die eigene Persönlichkeit zählen mehr als jedes Rollenbild. Besonders PTAs, die über einen Wechsel nachdenken, ermutigt sie, den Schritt zu wagen – für mehr Abwechslung, Flexibilität und persönliche Weiterentwicklung.

They just took over the city. The whole city was taken over and it’s a lot, but it’s so energetic. It’s so much fun and there’s so many great things you can get there.” Rapid Responses:  If you had to go to work at Disneyland as a Disney character for the day, which character would you pick?

Host: Mindy McCulley, MS Family and Consumer Sciences Extension Specialist for Instructional Support, University of Kentucky  Guest: Monica Mundy, PhD Assistant Extension Professor for Family and Community Health Season 8, Episode 33 This is Talking FACS with host Mindy McCulley and guest Dr. Monica Mundy. In this episode we explore how civic engagement directly impacts individual and community health. What comes to mind when you think of civic engagement? In this episode we will push the boundaries of what many people think civic engagement is and share the health benefits you can enjoy. Topics include research-backed health benefits (longer life expectancy, lower rates of heart disease, depression, and even some cancers), how community involvement builds social connection, resilience, and local decision-making power, and real-world examples like community responses to public health crises. Dr. Munday shares five simple steps to get involved: stay informed, join groups, speak up, volunteer, and bring others along. She pairs these steps with practical ideas such as food bank volunteering, PTAs, and neighborhood cleanups. Listeners are encouraged to pick one action and connect with local FCS Extension resources to start making a difference.

Roger Devine has led a life based on service, communication, education, and entrepreneurship. As the co-founder of SchoolAuction.net, he has spent the past 20 years assisting and advising local and national nonprofit organizations and charities on how to grow their programs and ensure financial stability through fundraising events, such as gala auctions, golf tournaments, and trivia nights. Throughout his time at SchoolAuction.net, Roger has been an advocate for organizations to make their events equitable and accessible to supporters outside of the traditional top-tier donors, as a way of building a broader base of supporters. This attitude was born from the company's decision to focus its marketing outreach on schools and PTAs, and from experiences during the 2008 recession, when many fundraising officers became wary of whether fundraising events could work in a time of economic uncertainty.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/inspiring-stories--2917948/support.

Every so often, a story walks into your life which reminds you of the power of never saying never. Jane Fischer's is that kind of story. Jane's life started like many others. A bright college graduate, she stepped into the classroom as a teacher, fuelled by a passion to shape young minds. Then came marriage and children. The first few chapters of her life read as expected until the arrival of Suzy, her second child. Suzy was born with severe medical and developmental challenges, and the prognosis was grim. Jane, then just 24 years old, was handed a laundry list of nevers: Suzy would never walk, never talk, never learn. But Jane wasn't interested in anyone else's script. Instead, she rolled up her sleeves, wiped away the tears and wrote her own. And now Jane, a resident of New Jersey in the United States, has written a book about the story of her fight and journey for Suzy. If You Knew Suzy: Pushing Past the Boundaries of Never. (September 2024, G&D Media) “At 24, I had no idea where to start,” Jane says. “But I knew I had to start somewhere.” Suzy's early years were a whirlwind of hospital visits, therapies and sleepless nights. Jane plunged into the world of special needs, armed with nothing more than fierce maternal love and a refusal to accept limitations. She became an advocate for Suzy, eventually earning her certification as a teacher of special needs children and later working as a learning consultant. Jane's advocacy did not stop at her daughter's needs. She spearheaded socialization programs, founded special education PTAs and fought tirelessly to ensure children like Suzy weren't just present but truly represented.

In this powerhouse episode, the team unpacks real-world, actionable marketing tactics that restaurant owners can implement immediately to drive traffic, create loyal customers, and boost profits—without relying on gimmicks or deep discounts. From the power of thoughtful guest experiences to bounce-back promotions and handwritten letters to lapsed customers, this is a masterclass in doing marketing the right way. Packed with humor, strategy, and personal stories, this episode delivers the perfect blend of inspiration and execution—proving that even the smallest marketing effort can lead to big results when it's done with intention.   Key Takeaways: Elevate the Guest Experience A warm welcome, fast service, accurate orders, and friendly follow-through are marketing tactics in disguise. Great hospitality = repeat business = higher lifetime customer value. Menu Design is Strategic Use the Golden Triangle of eye movement to highlight your most profitable items. Your specials should be "special" for both the customer and the operator—easy to execute, high margin, and memorable. Host In-House Events Wine tastings, trivia nights, and theme dinners on slower weekdays are powerful tools to build community and fill tables. Partner with vendors who may help cover costs or provide promotional support. Bounce-Back Offers Done Right Get guests to return with limited-time offers—but only after their first visit. Examples: "Come back in 7 days for a free dessert" or "Next visit appetizer on us." Use Guerrilla Text Marketing Borrow tactics from political campaigns (urgency, personalization, exclusivity). Build a list and send targeted, engaging messages like "You've been hand-selected" or "Spots are filling up." Turn Customers into Promoters Make your restaurant Instagram-able (photo walls, branded hashtags). Personalize touchpoints—birthdays, anniversaries, and even beta-tester panels for new dishes. Community & Loyalty Engage schools, PTAs, and neighborhood leaders—support them and they'll support you. Feature a "Customer of the Month" to spotlight regulars and drive local goodwill.

The Trump administration is hammering away at the federal government by eliminating jobs, cancelling programs, freezing spending and generally creating confusion. Today on Davisville we look at one part of the fallout in Yolo County -- the effect of the spending freeze on local nonprofits -- by talking with Jessica Hubbard, executive director of the Yolo Community Foundation. Yolo has about 200 nonprofits, not counting hundreds of small ones like school PTAs or neighborhood associations. “The biggest thing right now … is uncertainty," she said. Some local nonprofits have been hit by the spending freeze, particularly ones working in the areas of food and the environment, and “a huge number of nonprofits [worry] about the impact of the freeze, or anticipate that those freezes or potential cuts will impact them down the road.” We talk about reactions, Hubbard's advice for nonprofits and donors, the effect on nonprofit workers and volunteers, giving across the political spectrum, similarities to the turmoil caused by the pandemic, and where all this might be headed. The foundation releases its latest State of the Yolo Nonprofit Sector Report in mid-March. (Photo shows a storm over Yolo County in winter 2018)

But rather than just diagnosing the problem, Corey offers a powerful antidote—getting local and engaging in real-life, face-to-face conversations.

Coming off the high of our in-person CEO Retreat, we wanted to share 5 major takeaways from an incredible group of business owners.Together this group of business owners is shattering what we thought was possible for a pelvic rehab practice.  When we first started PelvicSanity, most 'experts' thought no one would ever actually pay more than a small co-pay for care.When we proved that wrong, then they thought maybe you could run a solopreneur business, but you could never build something beyond yourself.  People might be willing to see you, but not a member of a team.This group is proving all of that wrong.  All of them have multiple clinicians.  All are doing more than $250k in revenue.  They are both PTs and OTs.  They have built multi-disciplinary practices with PTs, OTs and PTAs.  Some have multiple sites.  Some have created 'wellness centers' and rented out space to allied professionals.  Some have purchased their own building.We're so proud of what they - and everyone in all of our different programs - have accomplished.  Spending time with them in-person is inspiring and challenges us all to go from 'good to great'.   Hope you enjoy these insights!Accelerator ProgramIf you're a business owner looking to take your business to the next level, make sure to check out the Accelerator Program (www.pelvicptrising.com/accelerator).  It's our signature, six-month coaching intensive program.  No matter where you are in your business career, it will give you the practical tools to improve your business and build a foundation for future growth.  Next cohort start in July of 2024, so get on the wait list now!About UsNicole and Jesse Cozean founded Pelvic PT Rising to provide clinical and business resources to physical therapists to change the way we treat pelvic health.   PelvicSanity Physical Therapy (www.pelvicsanity.com) together in 2016.  It grew quickly into one of the largest cash-based physical therapy practices in the country.Through Pelvic PT Rising, Nicole has created clinical courses (www.pelvicptrising.com/clinical) to help pelvic health providers gain confidence in their skills and provide frameworks to get better patient outcomes.  Together, Jesse and Nicole have helped 500+ pelvic practices start and grow through the Pelvic PT Rising Business Programs (www.pelvicptrising.com/business) to build a practice that works for them!  Get in Touch!Learn more at www.pelvicptrising.com, follow Nicole @nicolecozeandpt (www.instagram.com/nicolecozeandpt) or reach out via email (nicole@pelvicsanity.com).Check out our Clinical Courses, Business Resources and learn more about us at Pelvic PT Rising...Let's Continue to Rise!
