ABOUT THIS EPISODE
Inside SLP is a short, weekly podcast about the systems that shape speech-language pathology.
In ten minutes at a time, we explore how training, credentialing, licensure, and professional power came to look the way they do—and why so much of this structure remains unseen in day-to-day practice.
This isn’t a podcast about outrage or quick fixes.
It’s a slower, more reflective look at a complex profession we all work inside.
Each episode offers an idea to sit with. Something that adds context, surfaces tension, or helps the system come into focus.
The episodes build on one another, so if you’re new, I recommend starting with Episode 1.
I’m Megan Berg, and this is Inside SLP.

When we ask why change inside SLP feels so difficult, we often look to policy debates or leadership decisions. This episode looks instead at the financial architecture underneath it all and why long-term obligations shape what an institution can realistically risk.
To understand ASHA’s caution, we …
For twenty episodes, we’ve been examining the architecture of a profession under strain, including its history, its blind spots, and the pressures it was never designed to hold. In this final episode, we step back from diagnosis and turn toward orientation. Not a to-do list, and not a call to fix w…
In moments of professional frustration, it’s easy to confuse visibility with authority and to assume that the loudest voice is also the one holding the gavel. This episode looks beneath that assumption, tracing the legal boundaries that shape what a national association can (and cannot) actually do…
