We had a wonderful chat around Afrocentrism & Indigenous ways of knowing. It's amazing to see how Social workers from different parts of the world think when it comes to decolonizing practice! See you on Wednesday for another chat....looking forward to what (topic) will come up.

Hi All, thought I’d drop a quick note about the Skool community I’m building. We are aiming to do leadership development a bit differently. Instead of a one size fits all pathway, I’m building a choose-your-own-adventure approach where you access what you need when you need it. The community will have a training library, resources, peer community, group supervision and 1:1 coaching. If you, or someone you know would benefit from something like this then please come check us out at https://www.skool.com/the-leadership-lounge-6377/about It’s Free for founding members. Cheers Shelley

I’m planning an informal Coffee Chat or Lunch & Learn toward the end of the month, and I’d love for you to be part of it. This will be a relaxed, come-as-you-are space. No presentations. No pressure. Just conversation and connection. Nothing is fixed yet. This space is shaped by what you want to talk about. Is there something you’d like us to chat about? Please drop your ideas or suggestions in the chat. Even a single word or question is welcome. More details on the date coming soon. I’m really looking forward to connecting with you.

Hi All, My name is Shelley, I’m a social worker based in Brisbane, Australia. I’ve been practicing for 25 years and have worked across homelessness, school counselling, youth mental health, victims of crime, family and relationships counselling post separation counselling and mediation, critical incidents and EAP counselling, executive well-being coaching. I now work in private practice providing counselling, supervision, and leadership development. I joined this community as I value connection and reflection and being in private practice can be lonely. I’m also building my own Skool community for new leaders. I look forward to sharing the trials and tribulations ofthe amazing work we do.
