LISTENER STORY: Psychological safety at work and understanding contracts (with Anita Knezevic)
Bron is joined by Anita (newly registered psychologist) to chat about Anita's journey through her internship and early career, exploring topics like psychological safety at work, burnout prevention, and tricky contract clauses such as non-competes and supervision repayments. Anita reflects on how she found the right supervision and workplace, as well as the lessons she has learned along the way. Thank you Anita for your clarity and practical tips on these important topics - early-career listeners will learn a LOT from this episode! 😊
