We welcome our first guest to The Enabled OT podcast - Annie.
Annie has worked across several areas in her years as an OT, including acute, sub acute and in a research role. She also recently moved interstate for work - what a dream!
In this episode we ask her all about her experiences across the different areas she has worked in, her tips for moving interstate to work, and her words of wisdom for others considering similar paths.
We LOVED talking with Annie and hope you love hearing what she has to share!
Disclaimer: with Annie being in NT and having poor internet connection in addition to our amateur technology skills and this being the first episode recorded remotely - we apologise for the quality - we had to do lots of editing!
We welcome you back for our fifth episode!

We hope this helps those of you whom might be about to start your first job or are starting in a new position.
