Bron and Matthew chat about career opportunities in psychology beyond the therapy chair and, if you're already a qualified psychologist, beyond completing the Registrar program. We refer to ✨shiny✨ new research from researchers at the University of Canberra and the Australian National University showing that the skills gained during a psychology degree are in-demand across a range of industries (hooray!). We reckon this episode is a good antidote to existential dread about your future career, so give it a crack!
