January 20, 2021 Lessons learned after 1 year of podcasting
It's my 1 year anniversary! One year ago I had passion and a mission. ⁣
⁣
No plan, no clue what to do, or how to do it but I knew I was going to start changing the narrative of social work; we don't need to accept burnout as a standard, we need to be paid our worth, and we need more support and guidance from other social workers. ⁣
⁣
This is how far we have come and where we are going. We are just getting started!⁣
