What Color Are Your Scrubs? (WCAYS) is not a "here's what the job is" healthcare careers book. It's a decision book - built for people who want to choose the right lane before they invest years of school, debt, and emotional wear in the wrong one.
Most career guides focus on duties, salary ranges, and job outlook. That's useful, but it skips the part that actually determines whether someone will thrive: identity. In What Color Are Your Scrubs? (WCAYS), Mason Preddy introduces an alignment-first approach to healthcare career selection through Mason's Alignment Theory (MAT) and the PACES(TM) and CARESET(TM) frameworks - tools designed to help readers evaluate not only what they can do, but what they can sustain.
This book covers 345 healthcare pathways across four categories: 185 current healthcare careers, 85 future healthcare careers, 50 side hustles, and 25 top careers. But it goes beyond lists. Readers are guided through the real, lived differences between roles - the daily emotional load, the pace, the pressure, the personalities that tend to thrive, the environments that drain people, and the common misalignments that lead to burnout.
Written for high school and college students, career changers, healthcare professionals considering pivots, and advisors guiding others, What Color Are Your Scrubs? (WCAYS) functions like a career navigation system for modern healthcare - practical, honest, and built for the world students are actually walking into.
The book also features insights and contributions from healthcare leaders and thinkers, including Quint Studer, Scott Becker, JD, CPA, Jean Watson, PhD, RN, AHN-BC, FAAN, Peter Cappelli, Michael J. Avaltroni, Ph.D., and others - bringing real-world perspective to the most important question in healthcare career planning:
Not "What job can I get?"
But "What role fits who I am - and what I need to thrive?"
