EPISODE 013 | Flourishing Through Nature, Connection & Sustainability with Bronwyn Paynter

March 22, 2021 • Melissa LaPointe • Episode 13

Today’s episode is a beautiful example of how OTs can think big in terms of their impact on the world. I’m joined by my special guest Bronwyn Paynter and as mentioned in the intro, this conversation goes in a few different directions, covering topics related to nature through an OT lens, trailblazing, sustainability, online entrepreneurship, the power of connection and finding joy in our work.

In this episode you’ll hear about:

How Bronwyn sees nature through an OT lens -- and trust me, it’s much more than you might think!
Her personal journey in searching for work that filled her with joy
Why Bronwyn started doubting herself as an OT (and how she rectified the situation)
Her entrepreneurial journey from forest therapy guide to online business owner, niching down to serve OTs
The connection between climate change, human occupation and sustainability
What lights Bronwyn up in terms of helping OTs to flourish and be well
