The Daily Occupation Anika Marin
-
- Society & Culture
A podcast about daily life as an occupational therapist (OT). I would love to share my story with people and to create meaningful and thoughtful discussion so everyone can come together.
Not many people truly understand what occupational therapy is, and I aim to increase the awareness of this wonderful profession. Episodes will range from advocacy to discussion on specific areas of practice and about what I experience first hand working in a rehabilitation hospital.
