On this episode of Hoorf, host Elle Billing welcomes Ivan Hardcastle, an occupational therapist whose 15-year journey led him to make a radical choice - stepping away from a high-stress, high-volume clinical partnership to create a private practice centered on quality care. These days, Ivan runs an innovative online coaching program helping parents and school staff support children with emotional regulation and sensory needs. The conversation takes a creative turn as Ivan shares his passions for theater and woodworking, essential elements of maintaining balance in life. His perspective on slowing down and building genuine connections resonates deeply. As an OT who prioritizes both practical skills and human connection, Ivan brings a refreshing approach to the care-based fields that emphasizes genuine understanding over quick fixes.
