Finding the balance between education, work, and family is a hard task! And with all the places we want to go, things we want to do, and hobbies we have it can feel impossible to find time for it all. (Did I mention that you also have to get between 7 to 9 hours of sleep?)
Recently, I had an interview with Dr. Glen Cotton, a professor in the entry-level Occupational Therapy Doctoral (OTD) program at Midwestern University. He has started to tackle the issue of balance with the OTD 2024 cohort at Midwestern University by creating a student-run Wellness Group. In this interview, he and I discuss the motivation behind creating the committee as well as the importance of teaching future OTPs strategies to maintain balance in life.
Can you tell me about the OT Student Wellness Group?
