In October 2023, we had the opportunity to sit down with an amazing proponent of the Motivity community, Supersonic ABA. This aspiring team uses play-based therapy to teach skills in an inclusive, modern, dynamic, FUN-ctional, and vibrant environment. Here's what they had to say about the ABA industry, their roles, and being a part of the Motivity community:
2. What's been the most rewarding aspect of your role as a BCBA or clinical owner?
Lily: The most rewarding aspect is being able to see progress, big or small, and seeing the joy that brings to our client’s and their families.
Susan: I concur with Lily! For me, I think the most rewarding part of my role as a BCBA is being a supervisor. I love seeing people learn, grow, and reach their own personal and professional goals. As a clinical owner, I love being unapologetically myself and making meaningful connections with like-minded individuals.
4. Outside of work what's a hobby or interest you're passionate about and how do you balance it with your professional life?
Lily: I enjoy cooking and trying out new recipes. I feel I am able to balance this by planning out what I want to make throughout the week! I also love to do escape rooms and play games (specifically with Susan) and we always make time ☺
Susan: Aww! We do love our games and spending time with each other, but man are we obsessed with escape rooms! I guess I can say that I am passionate about creating fun, visually stimulating, and unique spaces, which includes my home and being a hype-woman for all of the amazing people in my life. I am lucky that I am able to incorporate those things into my professional life as well as personal! Whenever I find that formula for balance, I will let you know!
5. One thing you love about Motivity?
Lily: I love the simulation feature and how you are able to see what the person collecting data will see.
Susan: For the software, I love how user-friendly and customizable it is- makes it feel more personal! For Motivity, the brand, I love the people. Every person I have ever encountered with Motivity has been an awesome human. 🫶🏽
