@AOTA. She should speak at the national conference!!

[@MiriLee]

You're sweet Ashley. What would be even BETTER would be able to meet you and give you a big HUG!! Thank you for your love and support. I'm very grateful.

[@cw1804]

Omg! Soo grateful that you’re back! Just in time while I’m studying! 🙌🏿❤️❤️❤️

[@tionagreen9059]

I am glad you’re back because I take my second attempt in Oct failed the first time with a 440 I was soo upset but you come highly recommended. I will be watching 😊

[@christinamurphy9168]

Welcome back OT Miri! I'm so happy you are back! Thank you for making COTA school a little easier when we were able to watch them. Now I am COTA/L. I can't wait to see your new videos and for the new students to see them too because it was really helpful! Thank you!🤗🤗🤗

[@Sandra-wm4cj]

I’m crying. I started studying for the NBCOT when your channel went down. I didn’t think I could do it without your videos but I found confidence in myself in your absence so you made an impact even when you weren’t there 😫! Regardless I was always rooting for you and I’m so glad that you’re back for everyone who needs your help!

[@MiriLee]

Sandra, those are such kind words. Ultimately, YOU did it and if I played a tiny role, than I am grateful to God that he allowed me to share in your journey. Ultimately, everything you need to succeed is already within you, my friend!

[@starter47990]

Welcome back! I passed OT school but I still watch just for nostalgia lol!

[@nicholaspowell6998]

[@carolmclean2294]

[@abab9622]

I really appreciate you. I feel so lost sometimes but you make me feel more confident. I can’t afford anymore resources…so many worries. Thank you for being the guiding light.

[@MiriLee]

Thank you for sharing your journey with me. I don't know you and your situation, but I do know what it feels like to go through this journey with limited resources and worries. I am grateful and encouraged to know that you have found encouragement through my resources. Sending hugs and love your way.

[@WanderlustDeanna]

We lovvvvvvvve you !!!!!! 🖤🖤🖤 I’ve been a COTA for 2 years and you HELPED ME GET HERE! Thank you!

[@MiriLee]

awww Deanna!! I love you too and it's great to hear from you! I remember the day you came back here to the channel to share the news that you passed your COTA exam on your first attempt. Your heartfelt note left an impression and moved my heart. Thank you so much, Deanna. Your love and support meant the world to me back then, and it is especially more impactful today knowing that you've stood by me and supported me all this time. I can't thank you enough for your friendship and steadfast support. One day, when we meet, I'd love to celebrate our friendship that was forged through our shared struggles and passion. Love you so much.

[@alljoy6541]

Wow, I am so happy you back. I have been practicing for 15 years now and I simply love you channel and you enthusiasm for the profession. You are wonderful and you represent the character that an OT requires . Your videos even help me to recap. You make me so happy.

[@MiriLee]

What a pleasant and encouraging message. Thank you so much for being here with your support. I wouldn't be here if it weren't for you and this community I love so much. Thank you.

[@nastassiadietrich1336]

Welcome back! My heart is overwhelmed with tears of joy. God never seen the righteous forsaken yet. I appreciate you. The journey shall continue. I love you🙏🏽🤗

[@shanarasmith7705]

I am so glad your back!!! Your positive outlook and knowledge in the field has been truly missed! After you left I thought about giving up. I had been so discouraged after taking it more than once and failing it. I went into another field. It sounds crazy but when you popped up on my screen announcing you were back I felt the hope of me getting through it return. Thank you! You have no idea how much you contribute and make a difference.

[@anticuti]

You can do it! I'm trying for my 5th time. Wanna study together?

[@nastassiadietrich1336]

Same here....you are not in this alone.

[@shanarasmith7705]

Ty☺... It's so discouraging.

[@shanarasmith7705]

I would...but I am not planning on studying for it until after the holidays LW so I can focus.

[@MiriLee]

Thank you for your kind words, Shanara. I'm sorry to hear that you've been feeling discouraged, but happy to know that you are feeling hopeful again. I'm looking forward to continuing this journey with you and when you return, I will be here to welcome you and cheer you on!!

[@Becca_Lynn]

Welcome back Miri! ❤️ You are greatly appreciated by so many!

[@tametriahernandez9192]

Yayyyyyy!!!! I am soooo glad you’re back! Your videos were the only thing helping me during my study. My goal was to take the exam this past summer and I was so discouraged after you took the content down that I put it off. I even thought about starting a new career 😩 And just as I got my faith to begin to study again in the upcoming months (because of encouragement from family and friends), I got this notification and your come back is right on time! Confirmation 🙌🏾

[@MiriLee]

Perfect timing! I'm so happy to hear it! Thank you for being here and for your support. I hope we can continue to encourage one another through the many seasons and transitions of our OT journey.

[@MomoHitsujiOwO]

So happy for you! You inspired me and other OTs to become better! Can’t wait to see more! ❤️❤️❤️

[@MiriLee]

Hi Daisy! Welcome and thank you for studying with me! I hope you continue to find value and support here. Take good care and see you in the next video!

[@dez4440]

I learned of your website from other potential exam takers on fb! Thank you for coming back to support potential OT's & COTA's for their exam. I definitely suffer from anxiety since I didn't pass on my 2nd attempt. You have inspired me to follow my dream and I will not give up thanks to your support. Thank you so very much for not giving up...you've inspired me!!

[@MiriLee]

Thank you for being here and sharing your journey with me. I'm late to reply to your post, but I wanted to express how thankful I am to have you here and to know that you've been inspired to follow your dream and not give up. I hope you're doing well. xoxo

[@caitlynaizpiri7806]

I’m a current FW2 student and am so grateful for your sharing. FW2 is a time we feel we are constantly judged and often fearful of not measuring up. You are so encouraging through the entire process of becoming an OT and I am thankful you are back!

[@MiriLee]

Thank you so much for being here with your support, Caitlyn. I can't tell you how happy I am to be back and I'm immensely grateful to you and our community for making our reunion possible. I hope you continue to feel supported through all the transitions of your OT journey.

[@fabiolacomeau3766]

Thank you for being transparent. Your message hits home...not passing my boards after 2 attempts this year left me feeling empty and truly sapped all my confidence. But like all journeys, there are peaks and valleys..this experience has also taught me what it means to persevere and how to come back from multiple defeats....I am beyond elated that you are back! I have resumed studying and feel ready to take on the challenge once again...always know we appreciate you. Thank you for your earnest desire to give back!

[@MiriLee]

Thank you, Fabiola. I am so grateful to you and our community for staying with me in spirit and encouraging me through what was one of the most difficult times. I am so excited to continue our journey together, through all the highs and lows. With perseverance and faith, nothing will stop us. Thank you, my friend.

[@amandacarter291]

Praise God you are back. Hun, you have been a blessing to me. You are the one that instored my desire to take my exam after years of putting it off, due to my own fear of failure. I am still battling my fears of being too old to start over again. Thank you soooooo much.

[@MiriLee]

Thank you you for still being here with your love and support. I'm grateful for our shared journey and I hope you'll find peace, inspiration and courage to follow your passion, whatever or wherever that may lead.

Yaaaaaaaaaay!!!!! So glad you are back Miri!!! Student-made transcripts of some of your previous videos have been passed around my OT class like exam prep Gold as we all prepared. We were so encouraged by you and glad to have even a small amount of you with us on our journey. Thank you for creating the best study tools ever and for fighting for what is best for our community while staying true to yourself! You are Amazing! God bless you and this ministry you so lovingly engage in.

[@MiriLee]

Thank you, Jaime! I too feel that my heart was with you all even though I wasn't present here on the channel.

So glad you are back!!!! It seriously felt that we are in a profession to help and live the best life we can and then for you to be shut down, I felt so weird & questioned if this was the profession to continue. I am so glad you are back :) Also, I had NO clue you had notes with your videos! I would slow down your videos and create my own notes lol. You were the reason why I passed Theory & Evidence Class!!
