Listen to 'Defining Moment.'

It had been an unexceptional day in the clinic in small-town Virginia. Despite a pleasant work environment at my newest travel site, I couldn't shake the familiar "funk" that had been present, in varying degrees, since my first job after graduation with my doctor of physical therapy (DPT) degree in 2016.

Settling on the couch of my new rental unit that June evening, I spotted an email from APTA in my inbox. Perhaps subconsciously desperate for inspiration, I clicked on a video of APTA President Sharon Dunn's recent address to the 2019 House of Delegates. I am glad I did, as Dr Dunn's message left me with a refreshed sense of hope and encouragement regarding the profession of physical therapy and my role in it—as opposed to an overall building disenchantment with the profession I had experienced over the previous 3 years.
