#124 What is OT in 2026? with Katie Jordan and Angela Macauley
Through OT Potential, we’ve released more than 124 podcast episodes exploring the research, ideas, and conversations shaping occupational therapy. Each year, we pause to step back and ask a foundational question:
What is occupational therapy—and how is it evolving?
In this special episode to kick off 2026, we expand the conversation beyond research alone to include advocacy, technology, and the forces shaping OT practice and public perception.
Joining us for this milestone conversation are two of the profession’s most influential leaders:
- Katie Jordan, CEO of the American Occupational Therapy Association (AOTA)
- Angela Macauley, PMP, CEO of the National Board for Certification in Occupational Therapy (NBCOT)
Together, we explore:
- How occupational therapy practitioners can collaborate on advocacy efforts, particularly around reimbursement and sustainability of practice
- How the profession can more effectively communicate and market the value of OT to the public, referral partners, and policymakers
How emerging technologies—especially AI—are impacting the profession.
This episode is an invitation to zoom out, reconnect with OT’s core identity, and consider how we collectively shape the future of the profession.
