In episode 50 of OT Conversations That Matter: The Podcast, host Justine Jecker is joined by OT Katie Churchill and former OT Amanda Björn to explore the intersection of professional identity and leadership in occupational therapy. They discuss why many OTs relinquish their title when stepping into formal leadership roles like CEO or Director, the challenges of maintaining a protected title, and how self-worth shapes leadership in the field. Tune in for a reflective conversation on the “art of occupational therapy” and the critical role of clear communication in defining professional identity and building meaningful connections.
