Rogue Scholars is for therapists who are done thinking
about building a program β and ready to actually do it.
This program is a great fit if you're:
- Designing or refining a signature program with a clear audience in mind
- Refining an existing offer or navigating a strategic pivot
- Scaling what's already working and building the systems behind it
- Tightening your offer ecosystem with intention
Rogue Scholars is not the right fit if:
- You haven't yet worked with clients or tested an offer in any form
- You're looking for someone to build your program for you and do the work for you
- You want a generic step-by-step blueprint
- You're focused on scaling and profit without equal commitment to program outcomes
Meet Your Lead Mentor
Melissa LaPointe is an occupational therapist, adult educator, entrepreneur, and the founder of OTs Gone Rogue.
Her work sits at the intersection of occupational therapy, program design, and professional development β grounded in two decades of experience across clinical practice, curriculum development, adult education, and consulting.
Rogue Scholars is the direct expression of that work: a program built on how adults actually learn and grow, designed for the kind of professional evolution that doesn't happen by accident.
Inside the program, Melissa leads group coaching calls, quarterly strategic planning intensives, and high-level strategic mentorship. Implementation sessions and specialist facilitation are led by a curated roster of guest experts and resident mentors β bringing depth and multiple perspectives to the learning experience.
30 minutes. No pressure. Just a real conversation
about where you are and where you're headed.
The intellectual home
for therapists designing transformative programs.
Rogue Scholars isΒ a mentorship container for OTs who want to design and deliver a signature program beyond traditional one-to-one care.
Through guided learning and strategic mentorship, members move from program ideas to clear, sustainable program delivery.
LEARN MORE
Most OTs reach a point where the existing structures stop fitting.
Not because the work isn't meaningful β but because there's more they want to do with their expertise. More people they want to reach. A program they've been thinking about creating for a long time.
The challenge isn't motivation.
What they're actually attempting is genuinely entrepreneurial work β building a program, creating a new revenue stream, designing something that has never existed before to solve a problem they know intimately.
It requires a sustainable business model, an understanding of how money moves in and out of a business, and the ability to build something with intention inside a real life with real capacity constraints.
That's exactly what
Rogue Scholars is built for.
