A gentle take on making this year count...

January feels like the right time for this conversation—when the year is still fresh and we haven't yet fallen back into old patterns.

As OTs/AHPs, we're often so focused on our clients' goals that our own can slip into the background. But here's what I'm learning:

🌿 Getting clear helps. Not in a rigid way, but just knowing what you're working toward. Maybe it's one afternoon off per week. Maybe it's feeling less rushed between sessions. Maybe it's finally sorting out that admin system. When you know what you want, you start to notice small opportunities to move closer.

🌿 January is actually perfect for boundary-setting. Before your calendar fills up, before you're in the thick of it—this is when you can decide how you want your weeks to look. What hours will you work? When will you take lunch? Which types of referrals align with what you do best? Set these boundaries now, while you have the space to think clearly.

🌿 Small actions add up. You don't need a complete overhaul. Reaching out to one potential referral source. Blocking out lunch in your calendar. Saying no to one thing that drains you. These aren't dramatic, but they're real.
Your setup matters. If you want more balance but you're booking back-to-back all week, something needs to shift. That might mean adjusting your rates, your availability, or how you structure your days. It's okay to make changes that support what you actually need.

🌿 You're allowed to change your mind. What feels important in January might not fit by April. That's not failure—that's you paying attention and being honest with yourself.

This year, I'm super grateful for the business I've built, and I'm committed to protecting the boundaries that make it sustainable—for my clients and for me.

What's one thing you're hoping for this year? I'd love to hear.

As the year comes to a close, this is your reminder that reflection doesn’t need to be heavy or exhaustive. Sometimes it’s simply about noticing — and being kind to yourself in the process.

Supporting therapists to pause, reflect, and reconnect with what matters is one of my favourite parts of mentoring. These conversations often bring clarity, relief, and a renewed sense of direction.

Save this for a quiet moment, or return to it when you’re ready.
What are you most proud of this year?

As we approach the holiday season, a time many associate with joy, connection, and tradition, it’s important to remember that for some families, “celebration” doesn’t always feel that way. For many Autistic and neurodivergent individuals, the bustle, surprises, sensory input and social expectations can create real stress.

That’s why I wanted to highlight this thoughtful guide from Reframing Autism: “Our Top 5 Tips for Creating a Neuro-affirming Family Celebration.”

Their five simple, yet powerful suggestions to help make celebrations inclusive and affirming:

🌿 Build new traditions that work for everyone, rather than relying on conventional rituals that might be overwhelming.

🌿 Make those traditions equitable: allow each person to celebrate in a way that suits them — for example, giving someone the option to open gifts privately instead of in a group.

🌿 Establish and respect boundaries — e.g. avoid forced hugs or kisses, provide a quiet space to decompress, and communicate gratitude in ways that don’t rely on physical contact.

🌿 Ask “What do you need?” Listen to your loved ones: maybe they’d prefer familiar foods, less social interaction or more downtime.

🌿 And above all — practise patience. If someone becomes overwhelmed, what they need most is empathy, reassurance and understanding. Reframing Autism

In doing so, we’re not just “adjusting” — we’re creating celebrations that honour neurodiversity, dignity and belonging.

If you lead, support or care for neurodivergent colleagues, friends or family — or simply want to make your holiday gatherings more inclusive — I encourage you to check out Reframing Autism’s full article (link in comments) and reflect on how you can make this year’s celebrations more thoughtful, affirming and joyful for everyone.

🌿 International Day of People with Disability - 3rd December🌿

Fostering disability-inclusive societies for advancing social progress

This year's theme “Fostering disability inclusive societies for advancing social progress” beautifully reflects why I am so passionate about the work I do as an Occupational Therapist.

Every day, I have the privilege of working alongside people with disability whose strengths, perspectives, creativity, and resilience enrich our communities in countless ways. Supporting individuals to participate fully, on their own terms, isn’t just clinical work. It’s part of a broader movement toward equity, inclusion, and meaningful social change.

True progress happens when environments, systems, and attitudes shift to ensure everyone can belong, contribute, and thrive. As OTs, we play a small but important role in breaking down barriers, amplifying voices, and supporting choice and control in everyday life.

I’m proud to work in a profession that champions inclusion and advocates for a society where participation is possible for all.

💚 Here’s to building communities that recognise ability, value diversity, and create space for everyone.

World Kindness Day – November 13

In occupational therapy, kindness is more than a nice gesture — it’s a therapeutic tool.

Every day, OTs witness how small, genuine acts of kindness can shift a person’s sense of safety, belonging, and motivation. Whether it’s offering a listening ear, adjusting a therapy plan to match someone’s energy that day, or celebrating the tiniest step forward — kindness is at the heart of our practice.

🌿Kindness fosters trust.
🌿Trust builds participation.
🌿Participation drives progress.

On World Kindness Day, let’s celebrate the compassion woven into our profession — and remember that kindness extends to ourselves, too. Taking time to rest, reflect, and set boundaries is its own form of self-kindness that sustains our ability to support others.

OT Week 2025: OT in Action

This week, we celebrate occupational therapy and the profound impact it has on people's lives every single day.

OT in Action looks like:

🌿 A stroke survivor buttoning their shirt independently for the first time

🌿 A child with autism confidently participating in classroom activities

🌿 A veteran finding purpose and routine while managing PTSD

🌿 A senior aging safely at home with the right modifications and equipment

🌿 A factory worker returning to their job after injury

From our youngest clients to our oldest, across hospitals, schools, homes, and communities, occupational therapists help people do what matters most to them.

We don't just help people get better. We help them DO better. Live better. Participate fully in life.

To every OT: your creativity, compassion, and dedication change lives in ways that ripple far beyond what's seen. Thank you for everything you do.

Happy OT Week! 💚

Will “Occupational Therapists (OTs)” be replaced by robots?

According to https://lnkd.in/gar6FJ3T, there’s only a 0.35% chance of automation for our profession — ranking #6 out of 702 in jobs least likely to be replaced.

It’s reassuring… but also fascinating.

Because while technology and AI are rapidly transforming healthcare — streamlining notes, data, and admin — the essence of OT lies in something no algorithm can replicate: human connection, creativity, and contextual understanding.

We don’t just analyse function; we listen, adapt, and co-create meaning. We see the person, not just the task.

Perhaps the real question isn’t “Will OTs be replaced?” …but “How will we evolve with technology to enhance what we do best — supporting people to live fuller, more meaningful lives?”

🌿 How do you see AI changing our work as OTs?
🌿 What parts of your role could technology meaningfully assist with — and what must always remain human?

Allied Health Professionals Day 2025 – Stronger Together 🌿

On Tuesday 14th October 2025, we celebrated Allied Health Day and this year’s theme, “Stronger Together.”

This theme really resonates with me. Some of the most meaningful moments in my OT career have come from working alongside other allied health professionals — learning from each other, challenging each other’s thinking, and finding creative ways to support our clients as a team.

In the NDIS space, true collaboration can sometimes feel tricky. The system isn’t always designed to make MDT work easy — with time pressures, funding limits, and all the admin that comes with it. But when it does happen — when we take the time to connect, share insights, and build trust across disciplines — it’s nothing short of magic.

Those moments remind me why I love this work. Because real impact happens when we work together — for our clients, our teams, and our profession.

Here’s to all the OTs, physios, speechies, psychs, EPs, support coordinators and everyone else who make up this incredible community. We really are Stronger Together. 💚

Capability doesn’t equal capacity, and time doesn’t equal capacity either.

You can be incredibly capable — skilled, resourceful, creative, organised — and still not have the capacity to take on one more thing.

We often mistake having an empty hour in the calendar for having the energy or emotional space to fill it. But time alone isn’t capacity. Capacity is about your whole self, which includes your mental load, your energy, your focus, your emotional state.

This is something I talk about often in my work with occupational therapists and leaders who give so much of themselves. Just because you can do it doesn’t mean it fits within your current capacity.

Before you say yes to another commitment this week, pause and ask yourself:
🌿 Do I have the capacity, not just the capability, to do this well?
🌿 Does my schedule reflect what I can manage, or just what I can fit?

Protecting your capacity isn’t selfish — it’s what allows you to keep showing up sustainably, with purpose and presence.

When your work stops feeling like “you”, it’s time to realign with your values.

Several years ago, I found myself in a role that looked great on paper: leadership responsibilities, a solid team, meaningful outcomes. But something inside me felt… off. I was ticking boxes, meeting targets, doing all the right things, yet I wasn’t feeling that spark that first drew me to occupational therapy.

I realised the issue wasn’t the job itself. It was that my daily work no longer reflected my core values — connection, compassion, creativity, and growth. I was managing spreadsheets when I really wanted to mentor people. I was focusing on operations when I wanted to focus on people and stories.

That realisation changed everything. I started making small but intentional shifts — choosing projects that aligned with my purpose, mentoring OTs who wanted to create roles that truly lit them up, and building a business that reflected my values instead of compromising them.

Now, when I support OTs in supervision or mentoring, this is often where we start:
🌿 What do you value most, and how can your work reflect that?

Because when your values and your work are aligned, the energy changes. You stop just surviving in your role, and start thriving.

If you’re feeling a bit out of alignment, consider this your reminder: your values aren’t just a list on paper. They are your compass.

What is Occupational Therapy?

When people hear “occupation”, they often think of a job or career. But in occupational therapy, occupation means anything that occupies your time and gives your life meaning.

🌿 It might be getting dressed in the morning.
🌿 Playing a sport you love.
🌿 Cooking dinner for your family.
🌿 Learning, working, socialising, or simply enjoying a hobby.

Occupational therapists support people to do these everyday activities when illness, injury, disability, or life circumstances get in the way.

We focus on the practical, meaningful things that matter most to each person – because participation is health. 💚

So when you think of OT, think beyond “jobs.”
Think about living, doing, and being able to engage fully in life.
