Conversations in Care: The Advocate’s Burden


Listen Later

In this episode of Find Our Breath, Dr. Reginald Charlestin sits down with Alia Berry, a social worker, to explore the sacred and strenuous work of advocacy — the call to stand in the gap for others while navigating systems that are often slow to change.

Together, they unpack the emotional and spiritual cost of caring in spaces that rarely care back. Through both pastoral and clinical lenses, they reflect on the tension between compassion and exhaustion, purpose and depletion — and what it means to still choose hope in the midst of broken systems.

This conversation honors the often-unseen labor of social workers and all who carry the weight of advocacy. It’s a heartfelt reminder that your voice matters — and so does your rest.
