"Doug takes us beyond theory into practice, redefining financial security as an essential ADL in language that fits seamlessly into the Occupational Therapy Practice Framework. . . This book reads like an OT manual, yet it breaks down the long-standing taboo of discussing money and prepares us for success from day one in the field"

You didn’t become an OT to get rich.
You chose this field because you care deeply. You wanted to help people live better lives.
But the reality for most OTs looks like this:
- 💸 Student loans the size of a mortgage
- 🔄 Hourly pay that hasn’t kept up with inflation
- 😩 Productivity standards that keep creeping up
- 😬 Guilt for even thinking about wanting to earn more
- 🕰️ No real plan for how (or when) you’ll retire
This is what I call “the OT money trap.”
And Chapter 9 shows you how to escape it — with a clear roadmap to build a practice that actually supports your life.
You’ll learn how OTs are building lifestyle-first, private-pay practices that:
- ✅ Let them see fewer clients
- ✅ Charge more per session
- ✅ Work a 3- or 4-day week
- ✅ And wake up excited to serve — not exhausted from surviving
📘 This is the chapter that helped hundreds of OTs stop treading water and start building wealth, freedom, and flexibility.
