In May 2024 I had a chat with Jaime, a Kiwi SLP working in Melbourne, Australia.
You may know Melbourne as the hometown of pop icon Kylie Minogue. But did you also know that Melbourne is the sporting capital of Australia, playing host to events such as the Australian Open, the Grand Prix and the AFL grand final?
Grab your passport, pack your bags and get ready to come on an audio adventure to discover what life is like as a Kiwi SLP in Australia 🇦🇺.
A couple of content notes: for listeners outside of Australia you may not be familiar with the acronym NDIS. This stands for National Disability Insurance Scheme, which is government funding for speech pathology service. Also, this episode touches on the topic of substance use and abuse. Please take care when listening.
You can access Jaime's "moving to Melbourne" to-do list here.
👍 Make sure you like, subscribe and follow on Apple Podcasts, Spotify and Instagram so you can hear episodes as soon as they land (yes, that’s an airplane pun).
SLPs Overseas is an independently produced podcast. I record, edit and publish episodes while working full-time as an SLP (and travelling, of course!) If you enjoy listening to my podcast and want to buy me a coffee to show your support, I would greatly appreciate it:
