Patches of OT Alexandria Deno

This episode on Patches of OT. Allie talks to 5 members of her cohort: Jasmine Everfield, Angella Chen, Moriam Olorunoje, Emma Baldwin, and Vaz Dhani about Racial Injustice they have witnessed or feelings during OT school, COVID, and BLM movement. These powerful ladies talk about microagressions during OT school, the interviewing process for OT school, and what OT students can do to do better in OT school, for their OT program, and how to educate ourselves for our patients. 

This is Me. Opening up about my experience in OT school and how your failure does not define you. 
This episode is a blog post I wrote about myself in a time of the unknown. I hope this helps anyone who feels less than or who is battling mental health issues. 
I learned that sometimes life will throw curveballs, and sometimes those curve balls hit you right in the face. What matters is will you go back to your dugout and quit the game? Or will you take your base and continue to push through the pressure, pain, and embarrassment to come out victorious?

During this time of pandemic, what will you be able to tell your grandchildren during the time of COVID-19? The Rise of the OT is an episode of 3 steps of how to regain attention, find self-love, educate others, and taking action and stepping up.
