The Care Leaders's Podcast
Tired of the same old talk about children's social care? Us too. That's why we created "Conversations That Care."
Hosted by lived experience leader Luke Rodgers BEM and professional powerhouse Karylle Phillips, this isn't your average podcast. We're ditching the buzzwords and diving into the REAL issues facing children in care, care leavers and those with a social worker today.
Think: corporate parenting gone wild, the messy truth about "placements," and why leaving care often feels like a disaster. We're not afraid to ask the tough questions and challenge the status quo.
Join us monthly as we unpack your burning questions, share hard-won wisdom, and explore what it truly means to lead with care.
Whether you're a seasoned professional or new to the field, The Care Leaders podcast offers valuable insights and practical advice to help you enhance your practice and make a real difference in the lives of children and young people.
