Christmas shifts aren’t so bad when you finally get time to breathe, catch up on admin, and even squeeze in some professional reading. Illuminating the Dark Side of Occupation has been on my list for awhile and I’m excited to get reading! 🎄📚 #OTALife #ChristmasDayShift
A close-up of the book “Illuminating the Dark Side of Occupation: International Perspectives from Occupational Therapy and Occupational Science,” edited by Rebecca Twinley. The cover features a blue and white design with a network of dark blue and yellow dots connected by lines, symbolising interconnectedness.

Apparently, I’m in the top 0.5% of Beartooth listeners, which tracks — sometimes loud music is the best sensory regulation strategy. Add in a car concert, and it’s basically OT-approved self-care! 🎸💚 #SpotifyWrapped
A Spotify Wrapped summary featuring Beartooth as the top artist, with Four Year Strong, Falling In Reverse, Royal & the Serpent, and Chappell Roan in the top five. Top songs include “dead end friend,” “kinda smacks,” “HIND’S HALL,” “Crash and Burn,” and “Bloodsucker.” Total listening minutes: 22,552. The background is vibrant green with abstract patterns.

This #FridayMorningTreat is the only thing keeping me sane after a crazy first week back at work ☕️🥐 My caseload went from 0 to 6 very quickly, but I have the opportunity to keywork 2 service users! I’m excited to put all my learning into practice 💚 #OTLife
A chocolate twist pastry on a recyclable paper bag sits next to a black travel coffee mug and a laptop with stickers on a white desk. A simple Friday treat to pair with work tasks.

Hi, I’m Emily! Originally from Florida ☀️ Now living in England 🇬🇧 I have a BA in Philosophy, an MA in TESOL, and (soon) a BSc in OT. I’m passionate about neurodivergence and mental health and I love baking and anything coffee related. My goal? To lead NHS policy change for a more inclusive future.

Waking up to it being -1°C is making me really wish I stayed in Florida a few days longer so my mornings could look like this ☀️
A sandy path lined with green foliage leads to a bright, turquoise ocean under a sunny blue sky with fluffy white clouds. A “Lifeguard Protected Area” sign is visible near the beach entrance.

Year 2 of my OT apprenticeship is officially done! The first photo was my intro post during my role-emerging placement & the second is the cake I made to celebrate everyone who supported my learning. Grateful for the growth, challenges, and opportunities so far. On to year 3 - the final stretch!
