I'm joined by Rebekah Griffith to discuss the books we believe every new graduate in Physical Therapy should read.


We get into a range of books that cover motivational insights, life lessons, and broad knowledge crucial for the PT profession.



  • My book selections and why they're essential:

  • "Start With Why" by Simon Sinek: The power of purpose in PT
  • "4 Things That Matter Most": Essential life lessons for a fulfilling career
  • "Drive" by Daniel Pink: Understanding what motivates us


  • Rebekah's book choices and their impact:
  • "In Shock": Insights into patient care and empathy
  • "Thanks for the Feedback": The art of receiving and utilizing feedback effectively
  • "Range": The value of diverse knowledge and experiences in PT


  • Discussion on how these books can shape a PT's career and personal growth
  • Closing thoughts and invitation for listeners to share their book recommendations
