4 Ways Podcasting Made Me a Better Practitioner

Would you believe me if I said that becoming a podcaster has changed my lyfe? Spoiler alert, it has. And after some reflection I realized that being a podcaster has also made me a better OT practitioner. Now lyfe has been a little busy over at the OT 4 Lyfe HQs, so busy that I didn’t have a chance to celebrate my 4 year anniversary of the OT 4 Lyfe podcast (which don’t judge but happened back in October). So since it’s been 4 years, I figured why not share 4 ways that podcasting has made me a better OT practitioner. And head on over to ot4lyfe.com for more resources and to connect with the show.

Are you curious to know more about what it is like to attend a world federation of occupational therapists congress? In this episode I bring on two amazing guests, Dr. Emma George, a senior lecturer from the University of Adelaide in Australia and Olga Asrun Stefánsdóttir an adjunct professor from the University of Akureyri in Iceland to share their experiences attending a World Federation of Occupational Therapists Congress.

We also share some fun stories that we experienced while at a WFOT congress.
