At this point in exam prep, many oncology physical therapists find themselves asking, “Is it too late?”

And this LOADED question often comes with fear, pressure, and self-doubt.

In this episode, we talk through how to think about this question honestly and calmly, how fear distorts decision-making, and why discernment is a critical professional skill.

We cover:
• Why this question shows up late in exam prep
• The difference between panic-based and clarity-based decisions
• Why pausing is not the same as quitting
• How honest decisions protect long-term confidence

If you want a structured way to get started on your ABPTS oncology case report, I'm hosting a LIVE writing sprint later this month where we'll work through this together.
