Summary
For the final episode of Season 2, I’m joined by Isabelle and Paige. Co-founders of a paediatric OT service built on shared values, strong team culture, and thoughtful, reflective leadership.
We explore the realities of growing a team, supporting clinicians across sites, and navigating change. Including how they’re preparing for one founder to relocate while maintaining connection and cohesion.
We also cover practical tools and strategies including:
Zoom-based supervision with transcript summaries
Structuring sustainable workloads for new graduates
Creating space for supervision to feel meaningful (not rushed!)
Planning future clinic expansion without overcommitting
Using ChatGPT for service planning and content ideas
This is a beautiful, grounded conversation for any therapist reflecting on leadership, growth, or staying aligned with their “why.”
If you’ve loved this season and would like to be a guest on a future episode of OT Coaching Confidential, I’d love to hear from you.
