Finding Your Purpose
What is your Purpose as a PA?
What ignites you? Maybe you don’t know—I didn’t, and felt like an imposter.
Then my daughter and my wife almost died. It was an awful experience, but it showed me my Purpose at the most unexpected time.

Customer Reviews
Love
Love this podcast. I’m currently an undergrad student wanting to be a PA, this podcast is so helpful
Loved these!!
Loved the few videos I listened to they are so helpful! Please keep making more 😇
So helpful!
Fantastic show. I am currently a PA-S in the didactic phase and this has given me so many insights as I prep for clinicals and beyond! It sometimes is hard to keep your eyes on the prize about why we are all working so hard in school, and so much of this podcast keeps me motivated and is a great reminder of how amazing the PA profession is. I would recommend this whole heartedly to anyone interested in PA or who is on the fence between PA and other types of medical professional degrees. The “day in the life” episodes are great to hear what PA’s actual experiences have been. I am very glad that I found this podcast!
