Listen Later

Have you ever outgrown a place that once felt like home? In this heartfelt goodbye, I share my emotional and professional journey as I close the chapter on over a decade in school social work. Whether you’re a social worker, empath, or creative soul navigating change, this video offers insight, encouragement, and transparency.

💛 In this episode, I reflect on:

  • My beginnings in middle school social work

  • The full-circle moments with teen parents and high school students

  • Becoming a field instructor, speaker, and adjunct professor

  • My decision to leave and the emotional weight of closing a chapter

  • What’s next in higher ed and creative work

🎓 If you’re a BSW, MSW, empath, or educator looking for inspiration, this one’s for you.
