NO ABA ALLOWED- Drop yours in the comments below!

We made it to Friday! There is never a boring day in the ABA world. What's the craziest thing you have said to your clients this week? I'll start... Please don't lick your friend, you don't know if they showered today 🤣

I am always curious on who people look up to as their go to clinicians in their practice space. I do not mean the people who are great speakers, awesome at publishing, or "key figures" of the field. I mean the people that you look up to as inspiration for their clinical approach and skills. I have a lot! But today I reflect on one of my earliest mentors and clinicians I was lucky enough to work with as an undergraduate. Melissa Nosik: She taught me how to show up to sessions as your authentic self, how to never hold your ego over the client's needs, and how to genuinely follow a learner's progress to wherever it goes! I haven't worked with her clinically in almost 11 years now- but often I think about what she would do when I run into a challenge- I still find myself learning from her even in her absence so many years later. Please celebrate some of your favorite clinicians, either that you are happy you worked with once upon a time or that you get to work with now! What did you learn from them, are you still learning from them?

As a BCBA, what's the biggest green flag 🟩 or red flag 🚩 a clinic can have?

For those of you who supervise fieldwork, what types of unrestricted activities do you assign? Do you allow your trainees to do assessments and programming? Thank you.
