In this episode of Move.Talk.Thrive, Emily sits down with pediatric occupational therapist and Move About co-founder Dave Jereb to talk about something many clinicians think about but rarely discuss openly: relocation.They explore how moving — whether to a new city, state, or lifestyle — connects to burnout, career growth, workplace culture, and overall wellbeing. Dave shares his own relocation experiences, from the U.S. to Sydney to the Central Coast, and how aligning decisions with values shaped both his work and life.A practical, encouraging episode for students, new grads, and clinicians considering change, balance, or a fresh start.Key TakeawaysRelocation is values-driven: Know your why.Burnout isn’t about hours: Misalignment drains more than workload.Competence protects you: Push through the learning dip.Lifestyle matters: Nature, community, and environment impact wellbeing.Culture counts: Visit workplaces — real culture is felt, not advertised.You can do hard things: Growth requires leaning into discomfort.ResourcesCoastal Lifestyle Campaign:https://moveabout.mykajabi.com/ourcOasTallifestyleMove About Careers (resources + scorecard):https://www.moveabout.com.au/careers/Workplace Scorecard — Is your paediatric OT workplace working for you?https://dave-n3wfmo2w.scoreapp.com/Stay ConnectedInstagram: @movetalkthriveYouTube: Move.Talk.ThriveConnect with Emily & LizzyEmily MackieWebsite: www.emilymackie.com.auInstagram: @emilymackie.speechieLizzy DawsonWebsite: www.lizzydawson.com.auInstagram: @lizzydawson_Connect with Dave JerebLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/dave-jereb/Instagram: @davejereb_otMove About: @moveabout.ot
