This Passion Occupational Therapy podcast episode explores the concept of 'you being your superpower.' The host discusses how many occupational therapists (OTs) are not supported to be their authentic selves, and how this can hinder their professional growth. The host shares her own journey of self-discovery and empowerment as an OT, emphasising the importance of self-awareness, self-reflection, and self-leadership. She encourages OTs to align their work with their values and to embrace their unique strengths. The episode concludes with a breathing exercise and affirmations.
