Beyond Burnout: How to Build a Physical Therapy Career You Want to Keep

Burnout is one of the most talked-about challenges in physical therapy, but what if the conversation is missing something? In this episode, host Elisabeth Brown sits down with physical therapist, clinic director, educator, and sports residency director Tyler Goslinga to explore how clinicians can create careers that remain energizing over the long term. Tyler shares how identifying his passions, advocating for new opportunities, investing in his community, and building meaningful relationships helped him grow a career that extends far beyond patient care alone. Together, they discuss the difference between purpose and passion, why community connection matters, how clinicians can uncover opportunities they didn't know existed, and what leaders can do to help therapists stay engaged and fulfilled. If you're a new grad, seasoned clinician, practice leader, or anything in between, this episode offers a refreshing perspective on career growth, professional fulfillment, and creating a future in PT that lasts.
