 We all now use one-time passcodes (OTPs) to verify our identity online.In the last few weeks, I've personally received OTPs from Amazon, Apple, Google, the UK Driving Licence Authority, my pension provider, payments app Yotta, National Savings and parking app Ringgo. Some OTPs were sent to me in text (SMS) messages, others arrived via email.Identity authentication online using OTPs is much safer than using a single piece of information like a password. But OTPs are not safe, for a number of reasons.In the latest episode of “Unseen Money” from New Money Review, security researcher Timur Yunusov and I discuss some recent scams that involved stolen OTPs—from a $2m theft from the family of a Moscow teenager to an industrial-scale carding operation in China.Our story covers the security of mobile networks, tech giants Apple and Google, the business models of criminal masterminds and bagfuls of stolen phones shipped around the world.

A role central to today's conversation is her role as the Director of Community Engagement at SOLACE Foundation.Finding a way (and ways) together is central to her work.  She credits a small town upbringing and starting her career in healthcare as an addiction counselor with laying the foundation for her passion for working in settings and on projects where resources may be less obvious (or even limited) and yet infinite possibilities exist by noticing, building and maintaining relationships and networks.It also has guided her focus in the occupational therapy profession. The learnings from these experiences have led her to her latest endeavors that are focused more on collective occupational needs than individuals alone; recognizing the interconnection of these occupations requires increased community-level collaboration and attention.  It is this awareness that fuels Kary's commitment to convening and participating in spaces where being in process (as opposed to reaching solid conclusions) is expected, welcomed, and celebrated.   Collaboration and curiosity are two things she values most.

In this special episode, we're putting a spotlight on occupational therapy through the voices of those who live it every day. In celebration of World Occupational Therapy Day—a global event that kicked off on October 27, 2010, thanks to the World Federation of Occupational Therapists—we're exploring what this incredible profession truly means and the essential work that occupational therapy practitioners (OTPs) do worldwide.This year's theme, “Occupational Therapy for All,” couldn't be a better fit for this episode and the mission of The Uncommon OT Series podcast. This series is all about uncovering the unique and often unexpected ways occupational therapy practitioners support individuals and communities. Whether in hospitals, schools, or the most unconventional settings, these OTPs ensure that meaningful activities are accessible to people of all ages, backgrounds, and circumstances. Whether it's about building independence, fostering connections, or supporting communities, occupational therapy is all about ensuring everyone can engage in the occupations that make life fulfilling.In this episode, you'll hear from 20 occupational therapists practicing in some pretty uncommon settings. I asked them one big question: “What is occupational therapy?” Each therapist shares their own insights and provides their elevator pitch specifically about occupational therapy, explaining how they empower individuals and communities in unique and impactful ways.So, get ready to gain a deeper understanding of occupational therapy as we celebrate the profession and the powerful idea of “Occupational Therapy for All” through the voices of those who know it best.

Two-time Emmy and three-time NAACP Image Award-winning, television Executive Producer Rushion McDonald, interviewed Dr. Michael Giles.
