PT Is Political. Lean In.

PT Is Political — And That’s Not Optional
Recorded live at APTA CSM, this conversation tackles one uncomfortable truth: physical therapy operates inside a political healthcare system.
If you ignore policy, reimbursement, or structural access issues, you're still affected by them.
In This Episode:
- Why research feels intimidating (and why it shouldn’t)
- How curiosity fuels better patient care
- The policy gaps affecting farmworker communities
- Why students must engage in health systems early
- What success looks like in five years for the next generation of PTs
Why This Matters for Clinic Owners
- Policy decisions shape reimbursement
- Access gaps affect your patient population
- Advocacy protects long-term sustainability
- Students entering the profession expect leadership in this space

00:00:00.049 --> 00:00:01.451
It doesn't really matter, but oh,
00:00:01.471 --> 00:00:02.291
look at that, huh?
00:00:02.331 --> 00:00:02.512
Huh?
00:00:02.613 --> 00:00:04.035
Huh?
00:00:04.716 --> 00:00:05.636
And we're looking here.
00:00:06.057 --> 00:00:06.557
I mean, look at me.
00:00:06.578 --> 00:00:06.637
Oh,
00:00:07.179 --> 00:00:11.605
that's not the button I want to use.
00:00:11.785 --> 00:00:12.146
Oh, wow.
00:00:12.946 --> 00:00:15.310
That's our intro music as we go live
00:00:15.490 --> 00:00:18.914
from APTACSM here in Anaheim, California.
00:00:19.614 --> 00:00:22.217
I knew Disneyland was here.
00:00:22.318 --> 00:00:24.841
I didn't know it was like across the
00:00:24.882 --> 00:00:25.181
street.
00:00:25.242 --> 00:00:26.743
I'm walking back from dinner last night.
00:00:27.184 --> 00:00:28.125
Might have had a drink or two.
00:00:28.626 --> 00:00:30.408
And I was like, there's like a...
00:00:31.556 --> 00:00:33.298
employee entrance right here.
00:00:33.357 --> 00:00:35.338
Can we dip in and wear a Mickey
00:00:35.359 --> 00:00:35.619
suit?
00:00:35.659 --> 00:00:37.040
What would happen if we could do that?
00:00:37.942 --> 00:00:39.063
Rachel and Priscilla, Rachel,
00:00:39.563 --> 00:00:41.905
you're no stranger to the show.
00:00:42.786 --> 00:00:44.728
How did that episode go over?
00:00:44.747 --> 00:00:48.131
We'll see tomorrow if we get a bunch
00:00:48.231 --> 00:00:49.591
of people at our session.
00:00:49.631 --> 00:00:50.972
People who heard the episode,
00:00:50.993 --> 00:00:52.515
how did that go over?
00:00:53.075 --> 00:00:53.856
It was legit.
00:00:54.136 --> 00:00:55.337
It was encouraging.
00:00:55.817 --> 00:00:59.079
So we talked about peer review and how
00:00:59.179 --> 00:01:00.880
it's not as scary as you think.
00:01:00.960 --> 00:01:03.801
And researchers and journal editors are
00:01:03.822 --> 00:01:05.983
just people trying to get your work out
00:01:06.004 --> 00:01:06.263
there.
00:01:06.463 --> 00:01:08.885
And let me know if my suggestion will
00:01:08.924 --> 00:01:09.406
be adopted,
00:01:09.445 --> 00:01:10.746
which is if people are afraid of red
00:01:10.807 --> 00:01:12.186
ink, what if we just change the color?
00:01:12.207 --> 00:01:15.308
Because sometimes the answer is just
00:01:15.328 --> 00:01:15.569
simple.
00:01:15.590 --> 00:01:15.829
Yeah,
00:01:15.870 --> 00:01:17.230
this is supposed to scare people away.
00:01:17.450 --> 00:01:17.850
And Priscilla,
00:01:17.870 --> 00:01:19.091
what's your superhero backstory?
00:01:19.682 --> 00:01:21.683
Hi, I'm a Student Physical Therapist,
00:01:21.722 --> 00:01:23.102
University of Washington.
00:01:23.203 --> 00:01:23.582
Nice.
00:01:23.722 --> 00:01:25.743
I'm a first-generation Latina woman,
00:01:26.683 --> 00:01:30.066
and I'm here, you know, representing.
00:01:30.566 --> 00:01:31.766
I'm sorry, you said first year?
00:01:32.006 --> 00:01:33.027
Yes, I'm a first year.
00:01:33.227 --> 00:01:34.447
And you're jumping into CSM.
00:01:34.966 --> 00:01:35.387
Good for you.
00:01:35.406 --> 00:01:35.968
No, not first year.
00:01:36.007 --> 00:01:36.587
I'm so sorry.
00:01:36.888 --> 00:01:39.349
I'm a first-generation Latina woman.
00:01:39.409 --> 00:01:40.328
And where are you in PT school?
00:01:40.549 --> 00:01:41.909
I'm in University of Washington.
00:01:42.010 --> 00:01:42.450
In what year?
00:01:42.870 --> 00:01:43.990
I am a second year.
00:01:44.051 --> 00:01:44.430
Second year.
00:01:44.510 --> 00:01:44.911
Perfect.
00:01:45.230 --> 00:01:47.111
So how's, is this your first CSM?
00:01:47.492 --> 00:01:48.293
Yeah, this is my first CSM.
00:01:48.352 --> 00:01:50.674
How's, I mean, we're still a day young,
00:01:50.713 --> 00:01:52.474
but like, how's expectation?
00:01:52.614 --> 00:01:53.376
Is this what you thought?
00:01:53.396 --> 00:01:54.215
There's a lot.
00:01:54.316 --> 00:01:54.656
Yeah.
00:01:54.796 --> 00:01:56.016
It's, it's a lot,
00:01:56.096 --> 00:01:57.697
but it's so good though.
00:01:57.718 --> 00:01:59.319
Like I need to make halfway through my,
00:01:59.498 --> 00:02:00.179
the whole booth.
00:02:00.239 --> 00:02:00.498
Yeah.
00:02:00.819 --> 00:02:01.340
Pace yourself.
00:02:01.459 --> 00:02:02.260
Yeah.
00:02:02.560 --> 00:02:02.780
Yeah.
00:02:02.819 --> 00:02:03.099
Water.
00:02:03.120 --> 00:02:03.219
Yeah.
00:02:03.240 --> 00:02:03.421
Water.
00:02:03.740 --> 00:02:05.822
I say it's a circus with eighteen circuses
00:02:05.882 --> 00:02:06.102
in it.
00:02:06.121 --> 00:02:06.421
Yeah.
00:02:06.762 --> 00:02:07.503
That's how it feels.
00:02:07.722 --> 00:02:07.942
Yeah.
00:02:08.323 --> 00:02:09.582
just everywhere you go there's another
00:02:09.622 --> 00:02:12.364
loud thing and yeah yeah some smells
00:02:12.503 --> 00:02:14.884
wafting in from popcorn for some reason a
00:02:14.905 --> 00:02:16.564
lot of popcorn so what are we talking
00:02:16.585 --> 00:02:18.366
about today well we threw i threw uh
00:02:18.825 --> 00:02:20.466
priscilla into the fire this morning so
00:02:20.506 --> 00:02:23.266
she interviewed a bunch of editors of ptj
00:02:23.287 --> 00:02:27.108
journal about the future of research and
00:02:27.147 --> 00:02:28.949
how to get students uh interested and
00:02:29.008 --> 00:02:30.889
involved in research and so we kind of
00:02:30.908 --> 00:02:32.830
wanted to continue that conversation with
00:02:32.870 --> 00:02:34.409
you so what are the answers how do
00:02:34.430 --> 00:02:36.651
we get students not intimidated but to
00:02:36.730 --> 00:02:37.170
embrace
00:02:37.651 --> 00:02:38.771
I think being curious.
00:02:38.951 --> 00:02:41.914
I think ultimately all the questions of
00:02:41.955 --> 00:02:43.877
researchers were saying like students
00:02:43.896 --> 00:02:45.078
don't have to be curious,
00:02:45.157 --> 00:02:47.920
asking questions and wanting to go into
00:02:48.061 --> 00:02:50.242
areas where they're not as exposed or
00:02:50.302 --> 00:02:51.183
learned about a lot.
00:02:51.204 --> 00:02:51.544
You know,
00:02:51.585 --> 00:02:53.466
there's a lot of literature that we still
00:02:53.485 --> 00:02:56.049
need to like be open to.
00:02:57.229 --> 00:03:01.533
having more time to have to open to
00:03:01.554 --> 00:03:02.675
the different literatures that are out
00:03:02.715 --> 00:03:02.935
there.
00:03:03.395 --> 00:03:04.656
And I think as for me,
00:03:04.735 --> 00:03:06.657
like now I want to have an interest
00:03:06.717 --> 00:03:08.498
in research because I feel like there's
00:03:08.558 --> 00:03:10.001
questions that need to be asked.
00:03:10.860 --> 00:03:12.141
And I know there's a lot of students
00:03:12.181 --> 00:03:14.804
too that they want to find more and
00:03:14.843 --> 00:03:17.546
more interest and there's too many
00:03:17.687 --> 00:03:19.207
questions that need to be answered still.
00:03:19.228 --> 00:03:21.469
And you're going to be, I mean,
00:03:21.550 --> 00:03:23.532
when did you say research was something
00:03:23.572 --> 00:03:24.551
I'm not going to be intimidated by but
00:03:24.572 --> 00:03:25.173
I'm going to lean into?
00:03:26.128 --> 00:03:28.750
I think this morning, this morning,
00:03:28.770 --> 00:03:30.050
my mind was blown up.
00:03:30.411 --> 00:03:30.792
Yeah.
00:03:31.271 --> 00:03:35.354
But I think ultimately it's because I come
00:03:35.394 --> 00:03:38.056
from like a background that there's not
00:03:38.195 --> 00:03:40.997
answers strictly saying like, oh yeah,
00:03:41.037 --> 00:03:41.918
there's answers for this,
00:03:41.997 --> 00:03:42.717
answers for this.
00:03:43.098 --> 00:03:44.838
But when, for example,
00:03:44.878 --> 00:03:48.061
my family does not believe that much in
00:03:48.100 --> 00:03:48.781
physical therapy.
00:03:49.461 --> 00:03:52.143
My mom was kind of skeptical with going
00:03:52.163 --> 00:03:53.044
to physical therapy.
00:03:53.383 --> 00:03:53.843
She was kind of like,
00:03:53.864 --> 00:03:54.664
does it really work?
00:03:55.526 --> 00:03:55.906
You know,
00:03:56.145 --> 00:03:57.567
like she was asking those questions.
00:03:57.646 --> 00:03:58.407
And, you know,
00:03:58.548 --> 00:04:01.288
I grew up being going to the farms,
00:04:01.710 --> 00:04:04.211
picking cherries early at night or in the
00:04:04.251 --> 00:04:04.651
morning.
00:04:05.292 --> 00:04:07.332
And then I would see firsthand
00:04:07.413 --> 00:04:11.335
musculoskeletal injuries every single day.
00:04:11.575 --> 00:04:11.756
Sure.
00:04:12.656 --> 00:04:14.537
And till this day,
00:04:14.576 --> 00:04:17.877
there is no research about musculoskeletal
00:04:18.237 --> 00:04:20.199
injury with the farm working community.
00:04:21.098 --> 00:04:22.540
And they're just like, whoa,
00:04:22.660 --> 00:04:23.901
I don't know about anything about physical
00:04:23.940 --> 00:04:24.300
therapy.
00:04:24.321 --> 00:04:27.021
It's because we haven't shown them the
00:04:27.182 --> 00:04:29.322
avenues to go to get treated.
00:04:29.742 --> 00:04:31.744
And that limits access,
00:04:31.783 --> 00:04:34.584
that limits self-efficacy for them too.
00:04:35.500 --> 00:04:37.562
So that affects them financially and able
00:04:37.583 --> 00:04:38.423
to support their families.
00:04:39.444 --> 00:04:39.524
Yeah.
00:04:39.543 --> 00:04:39.663
Yeah.
00:04:39.684 --> 00:04:41.204
The downstream effects of that.
00:04:41.365 --> 00:04:42.925
It goes back into policy.
00:04:43.526 --> 00:04:45.028
I think they were talking about like if
00:04:45.067 --> 00:04:49.451
there's if policy is a big thing and
00:04:49.511 --> 00:04:53.593
if we don't help those communities that
00:04:53.653 --> 00:04:54.634
need it more,
00:04:54.894 --> 00:04:57.916
then we're kind of eliminating those gray
00:04:58.057 --> 00:04:58.577
areas.
00:04:59.177 --> 00:05:01.439
They're not able to get access.
00:05:02.120 --> 00:05:05.744
And we're not asking those questions that
00:05:05.764 --> 00:05:07.024
we need to get answers from.
00:05:07.045 --> 00:05:07.365
Yeah.
00:05:07.785 --> 00:05:08.826
And someone's got to ask them.
00:05:09.107 --> 00:05:09.387
Yeah.
00:05:09.466 --> 00:05:10.288
And follow it through.
00:05:10.567 --> 00:05:11.088
Yeah.
00:05:11.108 --> 00:05:12.670
But research can be intimidating.
00:05:12.689 --> 00:05:13.730
I remember the first couple of times I
00:05:13.750 --> 00:05:14.610
tried to read a paper.
00:05:14.670 --> 00:05:17.634
It was just it's a very it can
00:05:17.673 --> 00:05:18.954
be very precise language.
00:05:19.514 --> 00:05:19.815
Right.
00:05:19.855 --> 00:05:20.997
Where you might use a word.
00:05:22.377 --> 00:05:24.718
in just regular everyday vernacular you
00:05:24.738 --> 00:05:26.339
use it in research it means something
00:05:26.379 --> 00:05:28.380
different sometimes that can be sort of a
00:05:28.461 --> 00:05:29.781
of a barrier so you have to be
00:05:29.821 --> 00:05:32.081
sort of committed but i think uh an
00:05:32.122 --> 00:05:34.423
episode like yours previously on the show
00:05:34.682 --> 00:05:36.764
shows that the goal isn't to keep people
00:05:36.923 --> 00:05:39.785
out the goal is um to achieve
00:05:39.805 --> 00:05:41.826
understanding to to make sure that not not
00:05:41.846 --> 00:05:43.906
to just keep it uh to a small
00:05:43.947 --> 00:05:44.887
group um
00:05:45.927 --> 00:05:47.769
How do we get more people excited about
00:05:48.228 --> 00:05:48.689
research?
00:05:48.728 --> 00:05:50.810
How do we make more Priscilla's?
00:05:51.190 --> 00:05:55.153
And my goal is to get PTs excited
00:05:55.192 --> 00:05:57.754
about research and health policy and
00:05:57.774 --> 00:05:58.653
health systems.
00:05:58.733 --> 00:06:00.615
And that's what Priscilla is a great
00:06:00.634 --> 00:06:02.016
example of is someone who has
00:06:02.423 --> 00:06:04.324
a passion and questions about a community
00:06:04.346 --> 00:06:05.105
that's underserved.
00:06:05.146 --> 00:06:06.668
Well, there's a reason for that, right?
00:06:06.749 --> 00:06:08.170
Because no one asked the question.
00:06:08.531 --> 00:06:11.014
There's a political and policy reason,
00:06:11.194 --> 00:06:12.315
a structural reason,
00:06:12.976 --> 00:06:14.398
behind a lot of these disparities.
00:06:14.418 --> 00:06:16.841
It's probably not an accident.
00:06:17.081 --> 00:06:17.161
Yeah.
00:06:17.182 --> 00:06:17.783
And so if we're not...
00:06:18.403 --> 00:06:20.625
as rehab providers at the table in those
00:06:20.665 --> 00:06:21.725
policy discussions,
00:06:21.826 --> 00:06:24.168
kind of leaning into learning more about
00:06:24.228 --> 00:06:27.451
how decisions get made and not shying away
00:06:27.492 --> 00:06:28.833
from health policy as like, Oh,
00:06:28.853 --> 00:06:29.874
that's too political.
00:06:29.894 --> 00:06:31.514
That doesn't have to do with my clinic.
00:06:31.574 --> 00:06:33.557
Like that's not the reality.
00:06:33.596 --> 00:06:35.519
So that's what Priscilla and I kind of
00:06:35.559 --> 00:06:37.300
got together because she's on the, um,
00:06:38.413 --> 00:06:40.134
She's the DEI chair for the student SIG
00:06:40.173 --> 00:06:41.634
for APTA Washington.
00:06:42.076 --> 00:06:44.197
And I gave a talk to the students
00:06:44.237 --> 00:06:46.259
about how PT is political and you can't
00:06:46.619 --> 00:06:48.761
have health policy without politics and
00:06:48.800 --> 00:06:50.862
you just have to own your biases,
00:06:50.923 --> 00:06:53.283
but also not shy away from that in
00:06:53.324 --> 00:06:54.805
conversations with students because
00:06:56.966 --> 00:06:58.947
we operate in a healthcare system that is
00:06:58.987 --> 00:07:00.747
a political system.
00:07:00.848 --> 00:07:02.848
And we had a great outcome in that
00:07:02.889 --> 00:07:03.910
workshop that we did,
00:07:04.529 --> 00:07:05.910
and I think lots of students were
00:07:05.930 --> 00:07:06.971
intrigued by it,
00:07:07.190 --> 00:07:09.552
and many wanted to have more and more
00:07:09.591 --> 00:07:10.351
topics of this,
00:07:10.411 --> 00:07:12.252
even though they're really uncomfortable,
00:07:12.612 --> 00:07:14.213
but we have to talk about them.
00:07:14.293 --> 00:07:16.995
We can't be the elephant in the room,
00:07:17.035 --> 00:07:18.836
so I think it's important that we're
00:07:18.995 --> 00:07:19.915
asking those questions,
00:07:19.956 --> 00:07:21.896
and I think as students,
00:07:21.937 --> 00:07:23.458
we need to ask them now,
00:07:24.781 --> 00:07:27.382
And then so we can have knowledge.
00:07:27.663 --> 00:07:29.184
And so we're in the workplace,
00:07:29.204 --> 00:07:30.204
like we know,
00:07:30.264 --> 00:07:32.947
like we have at least something to say.
00:07:33.026 --> 00:07:34.548
Like we have something to say to patients
00:07:34.588 --> 00:07:35.428
if they ask us.
00:07:35.810 --> 00:07:36.610
Like we can't be like, oh,
00:07:36.750 --> 00:07:38.711
I don't know.
00:07:38.732 --> 00:07:39.612
I didn't learn that in school.
00:07:39.632 --> 00:07:41.454
Yeah, I don't know.
00:07:41.713 --> 00:07:42.714
I don't know about your insurance
00:07:42.754 --> 00:07:43.214
coverage.
00:07:43.235 --> 00:07:45.257
Yeah, I don't know how that works.
00:07:45.336 --> 00:07:48.199
Like that's too, I don't know.
00:07:48.238 --> 00:07:50.321
I guess I'm businessy, but like too, like,
00:07:50.420 --> 00:07:50.680
I don't know.
00:07:50.701 --> 00:07:51.682
Too health policy.
00:07:51.701 --> 00:07:52.562
Yeah, too health policy.
00:07:52.581 --> 00:07:52.822
Yeah, yeah.
00:07:54.983 --> 00:07:57.165
What's success look like in five years for
00:07:57.206 --> 00:08:00.569
both of you?
00:08:00.730 --> 00:08:01.851
Where do you want to be?
00:08:02.211 --> 00:08:05.295
Let's start with you.
00:08:05.315 --> 00:08:05.656
Let's see.
00:08:05.916 --> 00:08:06.658
I'm probably going to get a little
00:08:06.677 --> 00:08:07.237
emotional.
00:08:07.257 --> 00:08:07.338
Good.
00:08:08.059 --> 00:08:09.461
Yeah.
00:08:09.480 --> 00:08:10.502
Tears are coming down, I think.
00:08:10.543 --> 00:08:13.646
Whoa.
00:08:13.747 --> 00:08:13.966
Okay.
00:08:14.665 --> 00:08:17.225
So I think in five years I want
00:08:17.266 --> 00:08:19.365
to have my own clinic on the east
00:08:19.386 --> 00:08:20.346
side of Washington.
00:08:20.627 --> 00:08:23.447
It's a big agricultural area and I really
00:08:23.487 --> 00:08:25.367
want to help out the farm working
00:08:25.408 --> 00:08:25.908
community,
00:08:26.269 --> 00:08:29.189
educate them and tell them like, hey,
00:08:29.490 --> 00:08:31.449
these are services that are provided for
00:08:31.490 --> 00:08:33.171
you and you need to go seek them.
00:08:34.051 --> 00:08:34.850
And they do work.
00:08:35.750 --> 00:08:37.272
And that's why research comes in later
00:08:37.312 --> 00:08:37.812
being like, hey,
00:08:37.831 --> 00:08:39.371
this is research right here.
00:08:39.392 --> 00:08:40.211
I'm showing you right here.
00:08:40.231 --> 00:08:41.511
It's a publication.
00:08:42.032 --> 00:08:42.832
This is what I did.
00:08:42.913 --> 00:08:45.332
And I know it's scary at first because
00:08:45.373 --> 00:08:47.153
I know it's scary for people to go
00:08:47.212 --> 00:08:49.234
into these clinics and saying,
00:08:50.014 --> 00:08:51.214
it's not the same way as you go
00:08:51.234 --> 00:08:52.234
in with a doctor's visit.
00:08:53.134 --> 00:08:54.995
So I think in five years,
00:08:55.075 --> 00:08:56.735
I want to establish my own business,
00:08:56.975 --> 00:09:00.576
helping out the community and doing global
00:09:00.655 --> 00:09:01.836
health also too.
00:09:03.615 --> 00:09:04.716
Good.
00:09:04.777 --> 00:09:05.017
Good.
00:09:05.216 --> 00:09:05.977
Love to hear it.
00:09:06.477 --> 00:09:08.019
What does success look like five years
00:09:08.039 --> 00:09:08.220
from now?
00:09:08.240 --> 00:09:09.860
Good luck following that, by the way.
00:09:09.880 --> 00:09:10.861
Yeah, I know.
00:09:10.881 --> 00:09:12.322
I'm never going to live up to Priscilla.
00:09:12.462 --> 00:09:12.602
No,
00:09:12.663 --> 00:09:15.284
I want to keep fostering those sorts of
00:09:15.384 --> 00:09:17.447
passions in the students like her that
00:09:17.466 --> 00:09:18.067
keep coming.
00:09:18.347 --> 00:09:20.408
I do a lot more research than teaching
00:09:20.448 --> 00:09:21.049
in my role,
00:09:21.090 --> 00:09:22.211
but there are
00:09:22.730 --> 00:09:24.672
and you know it's health policy is a
00:09:24.711 --> 00:09:26.351
niche area where a lot of pt students
00:09:26.412 --> 00:09:28.493
aren't really interested but i'm growing
00:09:28.552 --> 00:09:30.592
this sort of you know it's planting the
00:09:30.633 --> 00:09:32.214
seeds that this is something that students
00:09:32.433 --> 00:09:34.813
can get involved with early and often and
00:09:35.075 --> 00:09:36.894
i just want to keep kind of building
00:09:36.975 --> 00:09:40.216
the cadre of rehab researchers in health
00:09:40.235 --> 00:09:42.297
policy and in ten years you get to
00:09:42.496 --> 00:09:45.476
make more students behind you yeah that's
00:09:45.496 --> 00:09:47.918
the way that's how it works good yeah
00:09:48.197 --> 00:09:50.078
we have to all right the uh
00:09:50.958 --> 00:09:51.840
We have a tradition on the show.
00:09:51.860 --> 00:09:53.020
It's called the parting shot.
00:09:53.221 --> 00:09:54.022
Rachel's aware of this.
00:09:54.062 --> 00:09:57.144
This is the parting shot.
00:09:57.725 --> 00:09:59.126
One last mic drop moment.
00:09:59.788 --> 00:10:00.587
No pressure.
00:10:01.048 --> 00:10:03.150
Just your legacy on the line.
00:10:04.225 --> 00:10:05.027
All right, parting shot.
00:10:05.287 --> 00:10:06.668
Just your last chance for a mic drop
00:10:06.707 --> 00:10:06.989
moment.
00:10:07.249 --> 00:10:08.070
What do you want to leave with the
00:10:08.110 --> 00:10:08.289
audience?
00:10:08.309 --> 00:10:09.090
We'll let Rachel go first.
00:10:09.110 --> 00:10:09.650
You can see what her,
00:10:09.671 --> 00:10:10.711
because she's done this one before.
00:10:11.373 --> 00:10:13.534
My mic drop moment is PT is political.
00:10:13.615 --> 00:10:15.096
There's no way to avoid it.
00:10:15.135 --> 00:10:15.615
Can't get rid of it.
00:10:15.635 --> 00:10:16.037
Lean in.
00:10:16.456 --> 00:10:16.977
Yeah, lean in.
00:10:16.998 --> 00:10:19.919
I'm going to say si se puede.
00:10:19.940 --> 00:10:20.020
Yes.
00:10:21.061 --> 00:10:22.182
Would that be translated for me?
00:10:22.543 --> 00:10:23.423
Yes, you can.
00:10:23.443 --> 00:10:24.083
There you go.
00:10:24.104 --> 00:10:25.365
Love that.
00:10:25.384 --> 00:10:26.066
Rachel, Priscilla,
00:10:26.086 --> 00:10:27.126
thanks for coming out and doing a little
00:10:27.147 --> 00:10:28.788
live stream as we are here at CSM.
00:10:30.549 --> 00:10:31.971
make a date five years from now oh
00:10:32.251 --> 00:10:33.913
wow i want to see that in re
00:10:33.953 --> 00:10:35.014
we'll catch up and i want to well
00:10:35.054 --> 00:10:37.037
maybe in between there but i would like
00:10:37.157 --> 00:10:39.740
to love to see the pressures but good
00:10:39.779 --> 00:10:41.181
pressure right because it's what you want
00:10:41.201 --> 00:10:44.344
to do yes that's true you're a pt
00:10:44.384 --> 00:10:46.186
we set goals and then we uh we
00:10:46.225 --> 00:10:48.328
want to you know meet the goal yeah
00:10:48.349 --> 00:10:49.409
thanks for stopping by and telling us that
00:10:49.429 --> 00:10:50.650
yeah thank you
00:00:00.049 --> 00:00:01.451
It doesn't really matter, but oh,
00:00:01.471 --> 00:00:02.291
look at that, huh?
00:00:02.331 --> 00:00:02.512
Huh?
00:00:02.613 --> 00:00:04.035
Huh?
00:00:04.716 --> 00:00:05.636
And we're looking here.
00:00:06.057 --> 00:00:06.557
I mean, look at me.
00:00:06.578 --> 00:00:06.637
Oh,
00:00:07.179 --> 00:00:11.605
that's not the button I want to use.
00:00:11.785 --> 00:00:12.146
Oh, wow.
00:00:12.946 --> 00:00:15.310
That's our intro music as we go live
00:00:15.490 --> 00:00:18.914
from APTACSM here in Anaheim, California.
00:00:19.614 --> 00:00:22.217
I knew Disneyland was here.
00:00:22.318 --> 00:00:24.841
I didn't know it was like across the
00:00:24.882 --> 00:00:25.181
street.
00:00:25.242 --> 00:00:26.743
I'm walking back from dinner last night.
00:00:27.184 --> 00:00:28.125
Might have had a drink or two.
00:00:28.626 --> 00:00:30.408
And I was like, there's like a...
00:00:31.556 --> 00:00:33.298
employee entrance right here.
00:00:33.357 --> 00:00:35.338
Can we dip in and wear a Mickey
00:00:35.359 --> 00:00:35.619
suit?
00:00:35.659 --> 00:00:37.040
What would happen if we could do that?
00:00:37.942 --> 00:00:39.063
Rachel and Priscilla, Rachel,
00:00:39.563 --> 00:00:41.905
you're no stranger to the show.
00:00:42.786 --> 00:00:44.728
How did that episode go over?
00:00:44.747 --> 00:00:48.131
We'll see tomorrow if we get a bunch
00:00:48.231 --> 00:00:49.591
of people at our session.
00:00:49.631 --> 00:00:50.972
People who heard the episode,
00:00:50.993 --> 00:00:52.515
how did that go over?
00:00:53.075 --> 00:00:53.856
It was legit.
00:00:54.136 --> 00:00:55.337
It was encouraging.
00:00:55.817 --> 00:00:59.079
So we talked about peer review and how
00:00:59.179 --> 00:01:00.880
it's not as scary as you think.
00:01:00.960 --> 00:01:03.801
And researchers and journal editors are
00:01:03.822 --> 00:01:05.983
just people trying to get your work out
00:01:06.004 --> 00:01:06.263
there.
00:01:06.463 --> 00:01:08.885
And let me know if my suggestion will
00:01:08.924 --> 00:01:09.406
be adopted,
00:01:09.445 --> 00:01:10.746
which is if people are afraid of red
00:01:10.807 --> 00:01:12.186
ink, what if we just change the color?
00:01:12.207 --> 00:01:15.308
Because sometimes the answer is just
00:01:15.328 --> 00:01:15.569
simple.
00:01:15.590 --> 00:01:15.829
Yeah,
00:01:15.870 --> 00:01:17.230
this is supposed to scare people away.
00:01:17.450 --> 00:01:17.850
And Priscilla,
00:01:17.870 --> 00:01:19.091
what's your superhero backstory?
00:01:19.682 --> 00:01:21.683
Hi, I'm a Student Physical Therapist,
00:01:21.722 --> 00:01:23.102
University of Washington.
00:01:23.203 --> 00:01:23.582
Nice.
00:01:23.722 --> 00:01:25.743
I'm a first-generation Latina woman,
00:01:26.683 --> 00:01:30.066
and I'm here, you know, representing.
00:01:30.566 --> 00:01:31.766
I'm sorry, you said first year?
00:01:32.006 --> 00:01:33.027
Yes, I'm a first year.
00:01:33.227 --> 00:01:34.447
And you're jumping into CSM.
00:01:34.966 --> 00:01:35.387
Good for you.
00:01:35.406 --> 00:01:35.968
No, not first year.
00:01:36.007 --> 00:01:36.587
I'm so sorry.
00:01:36.888 --> 00:01:39.349
I'm a first-generation Latina woman.
00:01:39.409 --> 00:01:40.328
And where are you in PT school?
00:01:40.549 --> 00:01:41.909
I'm in University of Washington.
00:01:42.010 --> 00:01:42.450
In what year?
00:01:42.870 --> 00:01:43.990
I am a second year.
00:01:44.051 --> 00:01:44.430
Second year.
00:01:44.510 --> 00:01:44.911
Perfect.
00:01:45.230 --> 00:01:47.111
So how's, is this your first CSM?
00:01:47.492 --> 00:01:48.293
Yeah, this is my first CSM.
00:01:48.352 --> 00:01:50.674
How's, I mean, we're still a day young,
00:01:50.713 --> 00:01:52.474
but like, how's expectation?
00:01:52.614 --> 00:01:53.376
Is this what you thought?
00:01:53.396 --> 00:01:54.215
There's a lot.
00:01:54.316 --> 00:01:54.656
Yeah.
00:01:54.796 --> 00:01:56.016
It's, it's a lot,
00:01:56.096 --> 00:01:57.697
but it's so good though.
00:01:57.718 --> 00:01:59.319
Like I need to make halfway through my,
00:01:59.498 --> 00:02:00.179
the whole booth.
00:02:00.239 --> 00:02:00.498
Yeah.
00:02:00.819 --> 00:02:01.340
Pace yourself.
00:02:01.459 --> 00:02:02.260
Yeah.
00:02:02.560 --> 00:02:02.780
Yeah.
00:02:02.819 --> 00:02:03.099
Water.
00:02:03.120 --> 00:02:03.219
Yeah.
00:02:03.240 --> 00:02:03.421
Water.
00:02:03.740 --> 00:02:05.822
I say it's a circus with eighteen circuses
00:02:05.882 --> 00:02:06.102
in it.
00:02:06.121 --> 00:02:06.421
Yeah.
00:02:06.762 --> 00:02:07.503
That's how it feels.
00:02:07.722 --> 00:02:07.942
Yeah.
00:02:08.323 --> 00:02:09.582
just everywhere you go there's another
00:02:09.622 --> 00:02:12.364
loud thing and yeah yeah some smells
00:02:12.503 --> 00:02:14.884
wafting in from popcorn for some reason a
00:02:14.905 --> 00:02:16.564
lot of popcorn so what are we talking
00:02:16.585 --> 00:02:18.366
about today well we threw i threw uh
00:02:18.825 --> 00:02:20.466
priscilla into the fire this morning so
00:02:20.506 --> 00:02:23.266
she interviewed a bunch of editors of ptj
00:02:23.287 --> 00:02:27.108
journal about the future of research and
00:02:27.147 --> 00:02:28.949
how to get students uh interested and
00:02:29.008 --> 00:02:30.889
involved in research and so we kind of
00:02:30.908 --> 00:02:32.830
wanted to continue that conversation with
00:02:32.870 --> 00:02:34.409
you so what are the answers how do
00:02:34.430 --> 00:02:36.651
we get students not intimidated but to
00:02:36.730 --> 00:02:37.170
embrace
00:02:37.651 --> 00:02:38.771
I think being curious.
00:02:38.951 --> 00:02:41.914
I think ultimately all the questions of
00:02:41.955 --> 00:02:43.877
researchers were saying like students
00:02:43.896 --> 00:02:45.078
don't have to be curious,
00:02:45.157 --> 00:02:47.920
asking questions and wanting to go into
00:02:48.061 --> 00:02:50.242
areas where they're not as exposed or
00:02:50.302 --> 00:02:51.183
learned about a lot.
00:02:51.204 --> 00:02:51.544
You know,
00:02:51.585 --> 00:02:53.466
there's a lot of literature that we still
00:02:53.485 --> 00:02:56.049
need to like be open to.
00:02:57.229 --> 00:03:01.533
having more time to have to open to
00:03:01.554 --> 00:03:02.675
the different literatures that are out
00:03:02.715 --> 00:03:02.935
there.
00:03:03.395 --> 00:03:04.656
And I think as for me,
00:03:04.735 --> 00:03:06.657
like now I want to have an interest
00:03:06.717 --> 00:03:08.498
in research because I feel like there's
00:03:08.558 --> 00:03:10.001
questions that need to be asked.
00:03:10.860 --> 00:03:12.141
And I know there's a lot of students
00:03:12.181 --> 00:03:14.804
too that they want to find more and
00:03:14.843 --> 00:03:17.546
more interest and there's too many
00:03:17.687 --> 00:03:19.207
questions that need to be answered still.
00:03:19.228 --> 00:03:21.469
And you're going to be, I mean,
00:03:21.550 --> 00:03:23.532
when did you say research was something
00:03:23.572 --> 00:03:24.551
I'm not going to be intimidated by but
00:03:24.572 --> 00:03:25.173
I'm going to lean into?
00:03:26.128 --> 00:03:28.750
I think this morning, this morning,
00:03:28.770 --> 00:03:30.050
my mind was blown up.
00:03:30.411 --> 00:03:30.792
Yeah.
00:03:31.271 --> 00:03:35.354
But I think ultimately it's because I come
00:03:35.394 --> 00:03:38.056
from like a background that there's not
00:03:38.195 --> 00:03:40.997
answers strictly saying like, oh yeah,
00:03:41.037 --> 00:03:41.918
there's answers for this,
00:03:41.997 --> 00:03:42.717
answers for this.
00:03:43.098 --> 00:03:44.838
But when, for example,
00:03:44.878 --> 00:03:48.061
my family does not believe that much in
00:03:48.100 --> 00:03:48.781
physical therapy.
00:03:49.461 --> 00:03:52.143
My mom was kind of skeptical with going
00:03:52.163 --> 00:03:53.044
to physical therapy.
00:03:53.383 --> 00:03:53.843
She was kind of like,
00:03:53.864 --> 00:03:54.664
does it really work?
00:03:55.526 --> 00:03:55.906
You know,
00:03:56.145 --> 00:03:57.567
like she was asking those questions.
00:03:57.646 --> 00:03:58.407
And, you know,
00:03:58.548 --> 00:04:01.288
I grew up being going to the farms,
00:04:01.710 --> 00:04:04.211
picking cherries early at night or in the
00:04:04.251 --> 00:04:04.651
morning.
00:04:05.292 --> 00:04:07.332
And then I would see firsthand
00:04:07.413 --> 00:04:11.335
musculoskeletal injuries every single day.
00:04:11.575 --> 00:04:11.756
Sure.
00:04:12.656 --> 00:04:14.537
And till this day,
00:04:14.576 --> 00:04:17.877
there is no research about musculoskeletal
00:04:18.237 --> 00:04:20.199
injury with the farm working community.
00:04:21.098 --> 00:04:22.540
And they're just like, whoa,
00:04:22.660 --> 00:04:23.901
I don't know about anything about physical
00:04:23.940 --> 00:04:24.300
therapy.
00:04:24.321 --> 00:04:27.021
It's because we haven't shown them the
00:04:27.182 --> 00:04:29.322
avenues to go to get treated.
00:04:29.742 --> 00:04:31.744
And that limits access,
00:04:31.783 --> 00:04:34.584
that limits self-efficacy for them too.
00:04:35.500 --> 00:04:37.562
So that affects them financially and able
00:04:37.583 --> 00:04:38.423
to support their families.
00:04:39.444 --> 00:04:39.524
Yeah.
00:04:39.543 --> 00:04:39.663
Yeah.
00:04:39.684 --> 00:04:41.204
The downstream effects of that.
00:04:41.365 --> 00:04:42.925
It goes back into policy.
00:04:43.526 --> 00:04:45.028
I think they were talking about like if
00:04:45.067 --> 00:04:49.451
there's if policy is a big thing and
00:04:49.511 --> 00:04:53.593
if we don't help those communities that
00:04:53.653 --> 00:04:54.634
need it more,
00:04:54.894 --> 00:04:57.916
then we're kind of eliminating those gray
00:04:58.057 --> 00:04:58.577
areas.
00:04:59.177 --> 00:05:01.439
They're not able to get access.
00:05:02.120 --> 00:05:05.744
And we're not asking those questions that
00:05:05.764 --> 00:05:07.024
we need to get answers from.
00:05:07.045 --> 00:05:07.365
Yeah.
00:05:07.785 --> 00:05:08.826
And someone's got to ask them.
00:05:09.107 --> 00:05:09.387
Yeah.
00:05:09.466 --> 00:05:10.288
And follow it through.
00:05:10.567 --> 00:05:11.088
Yeah.
00:05:11.108 --> 00:05:12.670
But research can be intimidating.
00:05:12.689 --> 00:05:13.730
I remember the first couple of times I
00:05:13.750 --> 00:05:14.610
tried to read a paper.
00:05:14.670 --> 00:05:17.634
It was just it's a very it can
00:05:17.673 --> 00:05:18.954
be very precise language.
00:05:19.514 --> 00:05:19.815
Right.
00:05:19.855 --> 00:05:20.997
Where you might use a word.
00:05:22.377 --> 00:05:24.718
in just regular everyday vernacular you
00:05:24.738 --> 00:05:26.339
use it in research it means something
00:05:26.379 --> 00:05:28.380
different sometimes that can be sort of a
00:05:28.461 --> 00:05:29.781
of a barrier so you have to be
00:05:29.821 --> 00:05:32.081
sort of committed but i think uh an
00:05:32.122 --> 00:05:34.423
episode like yours previously on the show
00:05:34.682 --> 00:05:36.764
shows that the goal isn't to keep people
00:05:36.923 --> 00:05:39.785
out the goal is um to achieve
00:05:39.805 --> 00:05:41.826
understanding to to make sure that not not
00:05:41.846 --> 00:05:43.906
to just keep it uh to a small
00:05:43.947 --> 00:05:44.887
group um
00:05:45.927 --> 00:05:47.769
How do we get more people excited about
00:05:48.228 --> 00:05:48.689
research?
00:05:48.728 --> 00:05:50.810
How do we make more Priscilla's?
00:05:51.190 --> 00:05:55.153
And my goal is to get PTs excited
00:05:55.192 --> 00:05:57.754
about research and health policy and
00:05:57.774 --> 00:05:58.653
health systems.
00:05:58.733 --> 00:06:00.615
And that's what Priscilla is a great
00:06:00.634 --> 00:06:02.016
example of is someone who has
00:06:02.423 --> 00:06:04.324
a passion and questions about a community
00:06:04.346 --> 00:06:05.105
that's underserved.
00:06:05.146 --> 00:06:06.668
Well, there's a reason for that, right?
00:06:06.749 --> 00:06:08.170
Because no one asked the question.
00:06:08.531 --> 00:06:11.014
There's a political and policy reason,
00:06:11.194 --> 00:06:12.315
a structural reason,
00:06:12.976 --> 00:06:14.398
behind a lot of these disparities.
00:06:14.418 --> 00:06:16.841
It's probably not an accident.
00:06:17.081 --> 00:06:17.161
Yeah.
00:06:17.182 --> 00:06:17.783
And so if we're not...
00:06:18.403 --> 00:06:20.625
as rehab providers at the table in those
00:06:20.665 --> 00:06:21.725
policy discussions,
00:06:21.826 --> 00:06:24.168
kind of leaning into learning more about
00:06:24.228 --> 00:06:27.451
how decisions get made and not shying away
00:06:27.492 --> 00:06:28.833
from health policy as like, Oh,
00:06:28.853 --> 00:06:29.874
that's too political.
00:06:29.894 --> 00:06:31.514
That doesn't have to do with my clinic.
00:06:31.574 --> 00:06:33.557
Like that's not the reality.
00:06:33.596 --> 00:06:35.519
So that's what Priscilla and I kind of
00:06:35.559 --> 00:06:37.300
got together because she's on the, um,
00:06:38.413 --> 00:06:40.134
She's the DEI chair for the student SIG
00:06:40.173 --> 00:06:41.634
for APTA Washington.
00:06:42.076 --> 00:06:44.197
And I gave a talk to the students
00:06:44.237 --> 00:06:46.259
about how PT is political and you can't
00:06:46.619 --> 00:06:48.761
have health policy without politics and
00:06:48.800 --> 00:06:50.862
you just have to own your biases,
00:06:50.923 --> 00:06:53.283
but also not shy away from that in
00:06:53.324 --> 00:06:54.805
conversations with students because
00:06:56.966 --> 00:06:58.947
we operate in a healthcare system that is
00:06:58.987 --> 00:07:00.747
a political system.
00:07:00.848 --> 00:07:02.848
And we had a great outcome in that
00:07:02.889 --> 00:07:03.910
workshop that we did,
00:07:04.529 --> 00:07:05.910
and I think lots of students were
00:07:05.930 --> 00:07:06.971
intrigued by it,
00:07:07.190 --> 00:07:09.552
and many wanted to have more and more
00:07:09.591 --> 00:07:10.351
topics of this,
00:07:10.411 --> 00:07:12.252
even though they're really uncomfortable,
00:07:12.612 --> 00:07:14.213
but we have to talk about them.
00:07:14.293 --> 00:07:16.995
We can't be the elephant in the room,
00:07:17.035 --> 00:07:18.836
so I think it's important that we're
00:07:18.995 --> 00:07:19.915
asking those questions,
00:07:19.956 --> 00:07:21.896
and I think as students,
00:07:21.937 --> 00:07:23.458
we need to ask them now,
00:07:24.781 --> 00:07:27.382
And then so we can have knowledge.
00:07:27.663 --> 00:07:29.184
And so we're in the workplace,
00:07:29.204 --> 00:07:30.204
like we know,
00:07:30.264 --> 00:07:32.947
like we have at least something to say.
00:07:33.026 --> 00:07:34.548
Like we have something to say to patients
00:07:34.588 --> 00:07:35.428
if they ask us.
00:07:35.810 --> 00:07:36.610
Like we can't be like, oh,
00:07:36.750 --> 00:07:38.711
I don't know.
00:07:38.732 --> 00:07:39.612
I didn't learn that in school.
00:07:39.632 --> 00:07:41.454
Yeah, I don't know.
00:07:41.713 --> 00:07:42.714
I don't know about your insurance
00:07:42.754 --> 00:07:43.214
coverage.
00:07:43.235 --> 00:07:45.257
Yeah, I don't know how that works.
00:07:45.336 --> 00:07:48.199
Like that's too, I don't know.
00:07:48.238 --> 00:07:50.321
I guess I'm businessy, but like too, like,
00:07:50.420 --> 00:07:50.680
I don't know.
00:07:50.701 --> 00:07:51.682
Too health policy.
00:07:51.701 --> 00:07:52.562
Yeah, too health policy.
00:07:52.581 --> 00:07:52.822
Yeah, yeah.
00:07:54.983 --> 00:07:57.165
What's success look like in five years for
00:07:57.206 --> 00:08:00.569
both of you?
00:08:00.730 --> 00:08:01.851
Where do you want to be?
00:08:02.211 --> 00:08:05.295
Let's start with you.
00:08:05.315 --> 00:08:05.656
Let's see.
00:08:05.916 --> 00:08:06.658
I'm probably going to get a little
00:08:06.677 --> 00:08:07.237
emotional.
00:08:07.257 --> 00:08:07.338
Good.
00:08:08.059 --> 00:08:09.461
Yeah.
00:08:09.480 --> 00:08:10.502
Tears are coming down, I think.
00:08:10.543 --> 00:08:13.646
Whoa.
00:08:13.747 --> 00:08:13.966
Okay.
00:08:14.665 --> 00:08:17.225
So I think in five years I want
00:08:17.266 --> 00:08:19.365
to have my own clinic on the east
00:08:19.386 --> 00:08:20.346
side of Washington.
00:08:20.627 --> 00:08:23.447
It's a big agricultural area and I really
00:08:23.487 --> 00:08:25.367
want to help out the farm working
00:08:25.408 --> 00:08:25.908
community,
00:08:26.269 --> 00:08:29.189
educate them and tell them like, hey,
00:08:29.490 --> 00:08:31.449
these are services that are provided for
00:08:31.490 --> 00:08:33.171
you and you need to go seek them.
00:08:34.051 --> 00:08:34.850
And they do work.
00:08:35.750 --> 00:08:37.272
And that's why research comes in later
00:08:37.312 --> 00:08:37.812
being like, hey,
00:08:37.831 --> 00:08:39.371
this is research right here.
00:08:39.392 --> 00:08:40.211
I'm showing you right here.
00:08:40.231 --> 00:08:41.511
It's a publication.
00:08:42.032 --> 00:08:42.832
This is what I did.
00:08:42.913 --> 00:08:45.332
And I know it's scary at first because
00:08:45.373 --> 00:08:47.153
I know it's scary for people to go
00:08:47.212 --> 00:08:49.234
into these clinics and saying,
00:08:50.014 --> 00:08:51.214
it's not the same way as you go
00:08:51.234 --> 00:08:52.234
in with a doctor's visit.
00:08:53.134 --> 00:08:54.995
So I think in five years,
00:08:55.075 --> 00:08:56.735
I want to establish my own business,
00:08:56.975 --> 00:09:00.576
helping out the community and doing global
00:09:00.655 --> 00:09:01.836
health also too.
00:09:03.615 --> 00:09:04.716
Good.
00:09:04.777 --> 00:09:05.017
Good.
00:09:05.216 --> 00:09:05.977
Love to hear it.
00:09:06.477 --> 00:09:08.019
What does success look like five years
00:09:08.039 --> 00:09:08.220
from now?
00:09:08.240 --> 00:09:09.860
Good luck following that, by the way.
00:09:09.880 --> 00:09:10.861
Yeah, I know.
00:09:10.881 --> 00:09:12.322
I'm never going to live up to Priscilla.
00:09:12.462 --> 00:09:12.602
No,
00:09:12.663 --> 00:09:15.284
I want to keep fostering those sorts of
00:09:15.384 --> 00:09:17.447
passions in the students like her that
00:09:17.466 --> 00:09:18.067
keep coming.
00:09:18.347 --> 00:09:20.408
I do a lot more research than teaching
00:09:20.448 --> 00:09:21.049
in my role,
00:09:21.090 --> 00:09:22.211
but there are
00:09:22.730 --> 00:09:24.672
and you know it's health policy is a
00:09:24.711 --> 00:09:26.351
niche area where a lot of pt students
00:09:26.412 --> 00:09:28.493
aren't really interested but i'm growing
00:09:28.552 --> 00:09:30.592
this sort of you know it's planting the
00:09:30.633 --> 00:09:32.214
seeds that this is something that students
00:09:32.433 --> 00:09:34.813
can get involved with early and often and
00:09:35.075 --> 00:09:36.894
i just want to keep kind of building
00:09:36.975 --> 00:09:40.216
the cadre of rehab researchers in health
00:09:40.235 --> 00:09:42.297
policy and in ten years you get to
00:09:42.496 --> 00:09:45.476
make more students behind you yeah that's
00:09:45.496 --> 00:09:47.918
the way that's how it works good yeah
00:09:48.197 --> 00:09:50.078
we have to all right the uh
00:09:50.958 --> 00:09:51.840
We have a tradition on the show.
00:09:51.860 --> 00:09:53.020
It's called the parting shot.
00:09:53.221 --> 00:09:54.022
Rachel's aware of this.
00:09:54.062 --> 00:09:57.144
This is the parting shot.
00:09:57.725 --> 00:09:59.126
One last mic drop moment.
00:09:59.788 --> 00:10:00.587
No pressure.
00:10:01.048 --> 00:10:03.150
Just your legacy on the line.
00:10:04.225 --> 00:10:05.027
All right, parting shot.
00:10:05.287 --> 00:10:06.668
Just your last chance for a mic drop
00:10:06.707 --> 00:10:06.989
moment.
00:10:07.249 --> 00:10:08.070
What do you want to leave with the
00:10:08.110 --> 00:10:08.289
audience?
00:10:08.309 --> 00:10:09.090
We'll let Rachel go first.
00:10:09.110 --> 00:10:09.650
You can see what her,
00:10:09.671 --> 00:10:10.711
because she's done this one before.
00:10:11.373 --> 00:10:13.534
My mic drop moment is PT is political.
00:10:13.615 --> 00:10:15.096
There's no way to avoid it.
00:10:15.135 --> 00:10:15.615
Can't get rid of it.
00:10:15.635 --> 00:10:16.037
Lean in.
00:10:16.456 --> 00:10:16.977
Yeah, lean in.
00:10:16.998 --> 00:10:19.919
I'm going to say si se puede.
00:10:19.940 --> 00:10:20.020
Yes.
00:10:21.061 --> 00:10:22.182
Would that be translated for me?
00:10:22.543 --> 00:10:23.423
Yes, you can.
00:10:23.443 --> 00:10:24.083
There you go.
00:10:24.104 --> 00:10:25.365
Love that.
00:10:25.384 --> 00:10:26.066
