It's been great! I love teaching about my special interests, and seeing the students develop is amazing. Academics are very opinionated (myself included 😅) but I've been really lucky that all OT academics I've worked with so far have been super innovative and pushing for change. Would recommend!

I may be biased but I would very much recommend OT as a career, if you ever want to chat about it, let me know!

Hi Cliff, gladly! Nice to connect with you and hear the work you're doing

I've added you 😊

To any #OccupationalTherapists using creativity, arts, nature and play in practice...you belong here too!

This is a brilliant idea, I may use this to get OT students to reflect on harmful/negative language in service user notes and reports 👀

It is SO LAZY. Surely the more prominent theme to talk about from this broadcast is the history of Irish people using slave labour, and not the inflections of the voiceover 🤦🏻‍♀️

100% agree, but I think it's even crazier that neurotypicals feel they can comment on autistic people's tone, regardless of how 'good' or 'valuable' their work is perceived to be by the wider population - 'Inclusivity is great, but only if you conform to NT social norms so that we feel comfortable'

Thank you for the well wishes - it seems like such a great opportunity, it would be silly to let my imposter syndrome take over. Looking forward to connecting with more international OTs 😊

I'll be attending with some of our lovely OT students in Gloucestershire - we're really looking forward it and have enjoyed the whole series so far 😊

What an incredible achievement, congratulations!
