What happens after physical therapy school ends and real-world practice begins? In this episode of FOX Rehabilitation’s Live Better Longer podcast, we sit down with FOX’s Gianna Sabo, PT, DPT, to discuss the transition from student to clinician—from choosing a career path and navigating uncertainty to overcoming early challenges in the workforce. We explore the pressure many students feel to “have it all figured out,” why giving yourself grace matters, and how new graduates can approach their first job search with confidence. Gianna also gives a recap of APTA’s 2026 Combined Sections Meeting, delivers some insight on what inspires her must-see work on social media, and offers advice to all PT students who are approaching graduation.
