Voices from the Front Lines with Social Worker, Ash (Summer Series)
Show Notes:
Today I am joined by physicist turned social worker, Ash, and we are getting into it. Ash shares his journey into helping professions, his passion for the work, and we talk about the many stumbling blocks and our great ideas around how to fix it and save the world…some highlights we dig into:
- connecting on a human level
- the temptation to use the professional hat to distance from the hard work of being with people and doing helping professions
- The BIG question about WHO is pushing people into the river? And thinking more proactively to reduce the pressures on the system.
- Managing burnout on a systems-wide scale and being the change we wish to see (for a refresher of our Dare to Lead series, check out S1E19 -S1E27!)
- Being harmed by witnessing harm to others and managing the hard days
- Processing through the hard things rather than pushing past or ignoring them
- What it looks like to find meaningful connection in the midst of the work
- The value of THERAPY (are we seeing a theme??)
- Not being mad at the rose, changing the soil
