Dr. Jeanette Benigas, SLP, welcomes Candice Harrell, a North Carolina-based SLP and grassroots advocate, to chat about one of the most confusing—and potentially transformative—developments in the field: the Audiology & Speech-Language Pathology Interstate Compact (ASLP-IC). Together, they unravel what the Compact is, what it isn’t, and why it matters for your license, your wallet, and your autonomy. From the risks of tying the CCC to the Compact, to the surprising transparency of the Commission, to the complex web of fees, background checks, and state-specific regulations, this episode gives you the full picture. Whether you're wondering how the Compact will impact telepractice or school licensure or you just want to know if it’s worth it, this conversation cuts through the noise with facts, examples, and a healthy dose of skepticism. Fixers, this is the deep dive you’ve been waiting for.
