Not Your Momma's Podcast...Unless Your Momma's a Social Worker: Recent Episodes
NYMP
This podcast idea was thought up by Linda who brought it to Brittany as means of self care and expression of the mind of a social worker. This is NEW, we are not podcast experts, but with time we will do our best to present the best audio quality and maybe one day have a theme song?
If your life is influenced by social issues (i.e. - everyone), you likely will find a relatable piece of this podcast.
For current and up and coming social workers, we hope you find this as a helpful resource.
- Linda and Brittany

How can we expect those in our lives to love and trust us the way we need - if we don't simply ask? This week, we look deeper at this topic.
Linda and Brittany discuss life during the COVID-19 pandemic and tips to managing your mental health while quarantined.
This week's episode is exploring how self-care, setting boundaries, and burn-out all come together. Join us for what Linda calls, "our best episode yet" :)
This week's episode is a little different than the usual flow. This week Brittany is sharing the recent talk she gave to a group of peers on compassion fatigue. Talking about what compassion fatigue is, how to identify it, and how to navigate through it.
This week, we discuss why the client is the expert, PERIODT. The truth is the client knows themselves better than anyone else in this world, and our jobs are to partner with them along the way. We explore missteps we've taken and outlooks to keep in mind as the client opens up with us about their experiences.
Why did we start this podcast? What will we be talking about? And why does it matter? Linda and Brittany explore all of this and more in Episode 1 of Not Your Momma's Podcast... Unless Your Momma's a Social Worker.
