The Occupation Station Occupation Station

For ease of access, this episode starts with a grounding meditation led by Reyna Puentes that was featured in Part 1. Join Ana and Amy as they finish their interview with Reyna and explore more strategies for managing anxiety during a test and with daily life. Thank you so much for joining us again! We are glad you're here.

Occupation Station is very excited to welcome back Reyna Puentes to the pod. She joins Ana and Amy as they prepare to take their NBCOT exam in two weeks. The three discuss anxiety, stress, and strategies to work through it before and during the test. Join at 31:00 for a guided mindfulness technique to use during your test!



Part 2 will be posted next week! Keep an eye out on social media or subscribe on whichever platform you use! 

Ana and Amy are officially DONE with Level II fieldwork and are graduating this week! Join us as we interview each other about our lived experience and bits of advice we picked up along the way.

In this episode, Ana and Amy sit down with their friend Laurie to talk about her process of getting diagnosed and managing Lupus.  They cover doctors visits, work-life balance, flare- ups and everything in between! 

In this episode, Ana and Amy are quarantining AGAIN (yes, we know). Find out why and how we're coping with it for the second time!

Keep listening for some great advice on graduating as well as preparing for and starting fieldwork in the midst of a pandemic. 

Get inspired to be someone's doorknob! 

In preparation for level 2 fieldwork, Ana & Amy read responses from occupational therapists who have experience as clinical instructors. They ask about advice, how to prepare, and the clinical instructor's expectations for fieldwork. 

We hear feedback from Dr. Matthew Geddie, Dr. Laurie Stelter, Molly Setliff, Irene Winkler, and Sarah Putt (From OT4Lyfe)!
