Welcome to the show notes for Episode 18 of the OT Schoolhouse Podcast.
In this episode of the OT Schoolhouse Podcast, we are excited to host one of the therapists behind The Inspired Treehouse Bog at TheInspiredTreehouse.com
Lauren Drobnjak is the Physical Therapist half of this popular blog and she joins us today to talk about how she and Claire Heffron, the Occupational Therapist half of the blog, began working together and ultimately started The Inspired Treehouse.
She also shares how they went on to start a non-profit center for children in their local community and how those kids helped them to develop the book they just released.
Just listen to the first 30 seconds of this podcast and you will hear how much Lauren cares for these kids and the community she serves. Then, listen to the rest of the episode to hear how Lauren and Claire are helping teachers, therapists, and parents around the world with their new book titled "Playful Learning Lab for Kids "
