Pairing Gone Wrong is two BCBAs discussing ABA hot topics through research, lived clinical experience, and a whole lot of sarcasm. This is not clinical advice, not supervision, and not a treatment plan. It’s two friends having real conversations about a complicated field. Remember don’t take us seriously.
Episode 7 Can BCBAs work on Feeding? (yes, we can)
Pairing Gone Wrong: Can BCBAs Work on Feeding? Can BCBAs ethically and competently work on feeding, or are we drawing lines based more on professional territory than actual scope of competence?

Expect an honest conversation that challenges assumptions, not clinici...

Episode 4 BT to CEO Pipeline. What's missing?
In this episode of Pairing Gone Wrong, we’re unpacking the classic ABA glow-up: BT today, supervisor tomorrow, BCBA by Friday, CEO by next fiscal quarter. ABA loves to push passionate people into leadership and ownership, but somehow forgets to teach them how to actually lead, manage conflict, build systems, understand business, supervise ethically, or run an organization without surviving purely on caffeine, crisis, and vibes.

Episode 3 Are YOU weaponizing Ethics?
This week on Pairing Gone Wrong, we’re talking about weaponizing ethics and the messy reality of people using the Code to intimidate, control, or “win” instead of protect.

Episode 2 Actively Disengaged? It's your fault
This week on Pairing Gone Wrong, we’re talking about actively disengaged employees and the leadership delusion that somehow staff just woke up one day and chose chaos. Spoiler: disengagement usually has receipts. We’re getting into how BCBA leaders contribute to burnout, resentment, and low morale, and why accountability cannot just be for the team when BCBAs helped build the culture in the first place. Tell us your thoughts!
