Curiosity, Collaboration & Clinical Wisdom - PelviCon Speaker Series with Susan Clinton

September 01, 2025

What happens when you combine 45 years of experience, relentless curiosity, and a passion for mentoring others? You get Dr. Susan Clinton.

In this PelviCon Speaker Series episode, we sit down with Susan to talk about her path into pelvic health, her orthopedic manual specialty, and what she’s learned about clinical care, burnout, and resilience across decades in the field.

We cover:

How she transitioned from ICU + neuro rehab into pelvic health
Why her orthopedic background has been so critical in treating the whole person
Advice for new therapists about staying curious and listening to the client’s story
Why intentionality and collaboration are more important than outcomes
Clinical pearls she’s learned from motivational interviewing + pain science
How to protect yourself from burnout while still loving the work

Susan also shares her best strategies for stress management, self-care, and why clinicians need to be compassionate receivers, not just givers.
