Episode Description:
Social work is more than a role—it's a calling that allows us to connect deeply with others, understanding their struggles within the context of their environment. From supporting individual clients to engaging in advocacy, social work offers an incredible range of opportunities to make a difference.
I’m grateful for my journey in private practice and the flexibility it brings, even with its challenges.
