About this episode
Is your social work career working for you? In this episode, we sit down with Dr. O from Through My Lens Consulting to unpack the idea of careerism in social work. We discuss what it looks like to intentionally build your career path, shift your mindset and prioritize personal growth as a social worker—especially in systems that weren’t designed with us in mind.
If you’ve ever wondered how to grow beyond burnout and into purpose-driven practice, this one’s for you.
