We discuss the larger systemic problems as well as what is wrong with our current perspectives about the punitive system. We discuss the damage our current incarceration system has caused for many who have shared their stories with her in hopes of finding some semblance of humanity outside the confines of prison.Let’s talk about it._____Valerie Cartonio is the creator and host of the Prison POD podcast for people who are incarcerated. Using Sociology and Peace Studies to drive her conversations and advocacy work, Valerie features guests on topics such as making choices, creating new habits, mindfulness, meditation and why it is important to tell your story.Valerie has 20+ years of experience working inside jails and prisons providing education in substance abuse prevention, doing HIV testing and counseling, reentry planning, inmate advocacy, and mentoring.

Robin Shear | Certified Joy Coach & Keynote Speaker
Certified Joy Coach & Keynote Speaker Robin Shear joins us at the roundtable to discuss the topic of Joy and why it is crucial to our experiences (and
longevity) as human service professionals.In PART 2, we unpack the philosophy of joy and how our attention drives our understanding of what joy means to us as a society. Robin provides us with a new perspective on how we can understand what joy is, when it is missing in the lives of those we serve, and how to recognize when we’ve lost it ourselves. Are happiness and joy the same thing? The nuance between the two leads the way to understanding and choosing messy joy.
Let’s talk about it.
