58. Don't I Know You From Pole Dancing?

Have your hobbies ever conflicted with your clinical work? Join us as we hear from Sam who had an anonymous complaint filed to her ethics board about her being a pole dancing instructor. You won't believe the major assumptions implied about her professionalism! Sam shares with us how she ethically maintains two rewarding careers as a therapist and pole dancing instructor, the double standards that exist in our field, and how she navigates it all.

So sit back, grab a pole (or some popcorn), and get ready for an episode that will make you question everything you thought you knew about therapists and our personal lives.

Watch Sam's amazing pole performance mentioned in this episode here.
