Within the profession of occupational therapy, being a lifelong learner tends to be one of the phrases that comes up time and time again. And it is super important as OT practitioners that we uphold this mindset to continue learning and building our knowledge throughout our career. On today’s episode, Brock Cook and I dive deep into aspects of thinking and learning. We chat about how people learn, building self-awareness, the fear of failure, and how to empower OT practitioners and students to think for themselves. Brock shares how his OT journey has influenced his own learning and how his podcast Occupied continues to spread learning and knowledge for the occupational therapy profession.
