About The Joi of Social Work

From the publisher's feed

The Joi of Social Work Podcast was born as a result of its creator Joi, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker from the Bronx, now living in Atlanta, GA, being hit with tragedy in 2009, 2011 & 2017; with the deaths of her father, mother & boyfriend. Joi's friends encouraged her to tell her story through comedy as she uses humor as a coping mechanism. It wasn't until a friend presented her with a microphone & computer that podcasting became a thought.
