Awakened Anesthetist
This podcast is for Certified Anesthesiologist Assistants, AA students, and anyone hoping to become one. As a CAA, I know how difficult it can be to find guidance that truly reflects our unique perspective. I created Awakened Anesthetist to be the supportive community of CAAs I needed on my own journey.
Every month, I feature CAA expanders in what I call my PROCESS interview series. I also create solo episodes that weave in themes of wellness, self-discovery, and mindful growth - offering insights and reflections that resonate with our high-pressure, high-responsibility lives. Through it all, you’ll discover the power you hold as a CAA to create a life by design, not by default. I know you’ll find yourself here at the Awakened Anesthetist podcast.

[PROCESS] Finding a Good Fit as a New Grad Certified Anesthesiologist Assistant with Charlie Chase, CAA
This is the first of 3 new episodes in a CAA Student [PROCESS] series. These student [PROCESS] episodes are meant to expand future and existing CAA students, and re-energize you along your path towards a practicing CAA.
In this first interview I spoke with newly graduated Charlie Chase, CAA. Charlie graduated from the University of MO Master of Science in Anesthesia program in May of 2022 and is currently working in St. Louis. Charlie and I recorded this PROCESS episode in December of 2022, after he had been practicing anesthesia for about 3 months. Charlie shares the highs and lows of his experience during school as well as his struggles applying for a state license and finding a job that "fit".
