RT by Night, Leader by Day: My Shift to Healthcare Leadership
Description
From scrubs to slacks — I had to learn quick! 😅
In this episode of the RTs Share Tea Podcast, host Linda “Thee Asthma Lady” opens up about her transition from night-shift Respiratory Therapist to day-shift healthcare leader and the things she had to learn quickly to adjust.
If you’ve ever made the leap from bedside to the boardroom (or dream of it), this one’s for you. Linda spills the real tea on what it takes to grow into an administrative role — from adjusting your wardrobe and mindset to mastering emotional intelligence, hosting meetings with confidence, and finding your authentic leadership style.
💡 In this episode, you’ll hear about:
✅️ The culture shock of moving from night shift to administration
✅️ How to “dress for the part” and command presence in leadership spaces
✅️ Emotional intelligence, body language, and conflict management tips
✅️ Coaching vs. managing — and how to lead with empathy
✅️ Why delegation and communication are your new superpowers
Whether you’re an RT ready to level up, a new healthcare leader finding your footing, or someone simply curious about what happens beyond the bedside — this episode will give you encouragement, laughs, and lessons learned along the way.
🫶🏾 As always, I’m just here sharing the TEA — because growth, like leadership, starts with showing up.
