Dr Lisa Cherry is in this conversation with social worker Jonny Hoyle where we discuss how AI isn’t the future; it’s the present. Social work needs to have the difficult conversations and steer the destination rather than waiting, not knowing or misusing it.
We explore how the work around this is in two parts which should interact; technology and ethics. We need to use technology for the things we decide it should do, not necessarily for what it could do.
We also talk about record keeping and the role of AI not just for the child now, but for the adult that the child will become.

In conversation with Lisa Cherry today is Colby Pearce who is a Clinical Psychologist who lives and works on Kaurna (pronounced “Garna”), Nurungga (pronounced as it reads), and Nukunu (pronounced “nookunoo”) country in the land known as Australia. Across the last twenty-eight years Colby has worked continuously with children and young people recovering from a tough start to life, and adults who interact with them in care and professional roles. He maintains three busy psychotherapy clinics, but also finds time to write and deliver programs intended to enhance awareness of the experience, needs, and therapeutic care of young people who have experienced complex childhood trauma, including in Ireland. Colby also works with teams that support kinship carers of Australian Aboriginal Children, the stabilisation of kinship care arrangements, and family reunification. Colby is looking to expand his work with individuals and teams working in the child welfare space, and write more!
The Bio: "Smash Life was formed by Matt and Andy Smith who spent their childhood in the care system. The brothers were unfortunately abused in care but have spent a combined 40+ years working in various roles in social care to ensure their past pains have been used as a purpose to be a listening ear, voice and advocacy for many children navigating through their own care journey now. Both are “being who they needed when they were younger” Smash Life is an award winning company that leads from the heart and provides mentoring, experiences, events, group work, inspirational talks and training."

Join Lisa Cherry and Karen Treisman in a live webinar conversation about changing organisational systems, services and cultures.
Join Lisa Cherry in conversation on a live webinar with Peter Blundell and Danica Darley on boundaries and relational practice. Professional boundaries are there for the safety and security of service users and professionals. However, there are factors that can increase professionals' use of boundaries that can lead to defensive and distance-based practice rather than relational and effective practice.
The best professional social care practice is relational, yet boundaries (if used ineffectively) can interfere rather than foster those relationships.
We are advocating for relationship-based professional boundaries practice, rather than a practice that is distance-based (i.e., creates barriers to relationships and change). We openly advocate for system change.
We support safe, reflective and professional practice and are not supportive of practitioners working against systems unsupported, or in ways that could cause them or service users harm.
In this episode, Lisa Cherry is in conversation with Alex Kemp exploring professional kindness, culture and leadership.
Alexander Kemp has been working with children and families for over 20 years. He holds a degree in social work and a masters of public administration. He lives in Brighton with his husband who is a doctor working in intensive care. Alex is care experienced.
Alex has worked in senior roles within large organisations specialising in the provision of services to children and families who need help and protection and with children in care and care leavers. Alex worked at Cafcass, the largest employer of social workers in the UK, as an assistant director for a large geographical area of England. In this role, he worked in partnership with the Foreign and Commonwealth Office in supporting the British Overseas Territories to develop and improve services for children and families. He trained and coached senior leaders abroad to support their development.
Alex’s last role was in the UK as one of Her Majesty’s Inspectors of children’s social care; he is the first known care experienced person to have held this position. He inspected local authorities and other organisations including fostering agencies and children’s homes.
Alex is one of only a handful of care experienced people in the UK who have progressed into such senior roles in large organisations responsible for providing help and support to children and families. He believes strongly that expertise by experience is undervalued. He has recently established an organisation which aims to support organisations and practitioners across the helping professions explore how and kindness and reflection influence the way in which professionals work. Alex also hopes to spend some time speaking, training and writing.

What happens when youth work, the decimation of preventative services and a community that feels left behind collide? In this collaborative book, Cut Short; Why we’re failing our youth – and how to fix it, Ciaran charts life during the most challenging years of the last decade. The emergence of the VRU in London is recorded as are the real lives of those living in their community as violence escalates against the backdrop or even in response to, the ideology of austerity and a changing political landscape.
I absolutely loved this book and as far as I'm concerned, it is a must read inviting a very real and ongoing call to action.

Sparked by a Twitter conversation, Lisa and Andi deep dive in a more nuanced way than Twitter allows, into thinking about childhood adversity and trauma in the context of criminal justice. How do we ensure that the public are safe, that people take responsibility for their actions and that there are interventions in place that support healing from childhood trauma and adversity?

Here is a review found on Amazon from Dr Christopher Moore:
*What an achievement by Lisa Cherry. This book is a must-read for anyone who has a vested interest in the emotional wellbeing and mental health of children and young people.
Lisa provides a brief introduction to the areas of attachment, adversity and trauma. These set the scene for the subsequent conversations in each of the three parts of the book. She also provides frequent reflections and points for discussions. I found that there was a real momentum to each chapter. They often left me with food for thought and I was eager to begin reading the next conversation.
One of the greatest strengths of this book is how it dips into various contexts and disciplines and yet the discussions remain accessible and relevant to a range of educators and professionals within health and social care. I have little experience of the criminal justice system, but I found Andi Brierley’s chapter very applicable to common issues such as preventative and multi-agency working. Similarly, the chapter with Pauline Scott and Laura Devennie will speak to those grappling with whole-school and whole-service thinking around staff wellbeing.*
*The conversational nature of this book is really unique, and this allows it to provide a really rich space for exploring and challenging a range of issues. It goes further than many books about similar topics, as it pulls back the curtain on the complex journey that these headteachers, social workers, therapists and managing directors (to name just some of the professional backgrounds) have experienced.
I appreciated the fact that the conversations did not shy away from the difficulties and setbacks which occurred on these journeys. Change is hard. Systems can be rigid. People can be hesitant to view the world and their own background with a different lens. It is truly refreshing to see these issues discussed openly and honestly. Lisa and her contributors really help to make these experiences tangible. There are also universal themes revealed across this spectrum of conversation which provide hope for the future. Compassion. Understanding. Empathy. Relationships. This book will undoubtedly help you to feel that you can make a difference.*

Dee and Rosie join Lisa Cherry to talk about a new Digital Archive called Care Experience and Culture.
Twitter: @CareExp_Culture
Press Release: https://careleaversinfiction.wordpress.com/2021/02/11/care-experience-culture-2/
Dee Michell is Senior Lecturer in Sociology, Criminology & Gender Studies at the University of Adelaide. She was made a Ward of the South Australian State in 1960 and remained in foster care for 15 years. She worked as an administrator for a multi-national corporation before going to university in her 40s, when she combined study with primary care for her three children. Dee is the first in her families (family of origin and foster family) to go to university.
Rosie Canning is a PhD Candidate Uni of Southampton. The focus of her research is the representations of orphans and care leavers in fiction. She is examining the research through the lens of both creative and critical practice.
Rosie recently worked as a Research Assistant for Aoife O’Higgins in the Department of Experimental Psychology, University of Oxford. They worked on Conversations for care a knowledge exchange project and Care in the time of Covid a project that explored the day to day lives of care experienced adults in the UK during COVID-19. We wanted to know how the care community is coping and what helps them. We also wanted to record their experiences in history.
A Portrait of Care was a collaboration between Dr Aoife O’Higgins, Rosie and The University of Southampton Widening Participation department. It was an online exhibition that ran during National Care leavers Week (NCLW) via Instagram using self-portraiture as a way to combat the negative stereotypes people have about children in care.
Dee and Rosie met online in 2018.

In this unique book, international trainer and consultant Lisa Cherry invites professionals from education, social work and healthcare to engage in conversations on a range of pertinent topics and issues affecting children and young people today.
Divided into three main parts, which introduce attachment, adversity and trauma, each discussion places an emphasis on emotion and the understanding that we have as humans for compassion, empathy and connection. By encouraging collaboration between sectors and exploring a range of intersecting themes, the conversations take the reader on a winding journey to broaden their depth of thinking, reflect on their practice, and to consider the central message: that we can bring about social change, one interaction at a time.
This book is a call to action and an opportunity to look around and decide what kind of service we want to provide, what kind of community we want to live in, and what sort of legacy we want to leave. At a time of ever-present social and political challenges, this book will stimulate conversations on current practice and professional development for the future and is a must-read for everyone working with children and young people.
In May 2021 Lisa Cherry's next book, Conversations that Make a Difference for Children and Young People
Relationship-Focused Practice from the Frontline, will be released.
Lisa asks contributors why they felt that contributing to the book was important. In this video, Angela Hunt and Alison Kindred-Byrne from To The Moon and Back Fostering talk about love and fostering.

After the year we've had, how could we celebrate all the work of those on the frontline and those who support them? A Christmas HUG seemed the best way forward and what emerged was a hour of poetry, music and pure love.
Sit back, soak it all up and remember that we will always be better together.

In a follow up to Part 1, we dive even more deeply into talking about power, suffering and empathy. The conversation on adversity and childhood suffering is not an easy one and both myself and Suzanne have times where we really struggle to articulate ourselves. What you'll hear is a compassionate, honest and thoughtful discussion about ACEs, trauma and adversity.

Talking to Children about Grief and Loss during COVID-19.
COVID-19 has not only disrupted every aspect of our daily lives, and locked us down, it has also magnified losses that were pre-existing, and opened up the topics of death, loss and grief, making them part of our daily conversations. If we found these conversations difficult before COVID-19, and avoided having them, thinking grief and loss were topics for ‘another day’, they are even harder now, as the issue of mortality has threatened our sense of safety, challenged our capacity for change, emotional resilience, and questioned how we find peace of mind.
Added to this are the ‘big little losses’ - our children can’t see and socialise with friends and family, attend school, after school clubs, be at places of play, safety and refuge, all of which has thrown them, and us (parents and educators) into a state of grieving for our familiar routines, relationships, and human connections.
As we find ourselves in this new state of uncertainty and unbalance, not waving but almost drowning in grief, feeling angry one minute, and in denial the next, the question becomes - how do we talk to our children about grief and loss, and enable them to feel a sense of safety, and peace of mind? How do we find this for ourselves?

In this episode, inspired by June Sarpong's series "To The Woman That Saved Me", Lisa Cherry reads a letter to her Grandmother in an episode that is a little different to the usual podcast content. We hope you like it and feel inspired to consider which woman has saved you, shaped you or supported you. Maybe it also gives you a chance to reflect upon how we don't always say, that which needs to be said when we really should have said it. Of course, regretting what we didn't say or indeed know, when someone is not with us anymore is one of life's tragedies. A letter seems a poignant solution to that. Thank you June for the inspiration...

Dr Muna Abdi is a Leading Education consultant and independent researcher with over 10 years of experience in education, research and community engagement. She has previously worked as a youth worker and university lecturer and is currently the Director of MA Education Consultancy.
Muna's work focuses primarily on educating practitioners in various fields on anti-oppressive and anti-racist practice as well as offering equity coaching and support as they embark on the challenge of creating anti-oppressive workspaces/practices. She suggests that there is little understanding or recognition of how historic trauma which is cumulative and collective, has an impact on an individual's experience in the workplace. She would be interested to explore this further, particularly in relation to the multiple challenges people of colour may face in the workplace.

Lucy joins the podcast where we look at alternatives to thinking about mental health other than the medical model in the context of Psychiatry. We look at lived experience and voices, the Power Threat Meaning framework, trauma informed care, the power of the medical model, drop the disorder and relational activism.

'A disorder 4 everyone' events and resources: www.adisorder4everyone.com
'A straight talking introduction to psychiatric diagnosis' https://www.pccs-books.co.uk/products/sti-diagnosis
Psychiatric diagnosis has become one of the most contested practices in mental health services today. Lucy Johnstone asks 'Do you still need your psychiatric diagnosis?' This book will help you to decide. A revolution is underway in mental health. If the authors of the diagnostic manuals are admitting that psychiatric diagnoses are not supported by evidence, then no one should be forced to accept them. If many mental health workers are openly questioning diagnosis and saying we need a different and better system, then service users and carers should be allowed to do so too. This book is about choice. It is about giving people the information to make up their own minds, and exploring alternatives for those who wish to do so.

An intimate conversation looking at the dual status of 'lived experience' and 'professional' and how that plays out in 'relationship'.
Has 'zero tolerance' gone too far? Does it epitomise inflexibility and lack understanding about what developing children and young people really need to learn? Lisa is in conversation with Mark Goodwin exploring these questions while holding in mind the impact for the children who are affected by this ideology. Mark explains that he has learnt more in the last year than he did in the last 19 years!
