Job Role / Job Description:
Support Worker, Lead Shift & Benefits Advisor
About Me🍃
I joined Seasons in November 2023. I was drawn to the role because I’ve had my own experiences with addiction, and I wanted to use that to support others going through similar challenges. I know how important it is to feel understood, and I try to bring empathy, honesty, and hope into the work I do every day.
What a Typical Day Looks Like🍃
No two days are the same at Seasons, which keeps things interesting. My day can include supporting residents with medication, running group sessions around addiction and recovery, and having one-to-one chats to support people on a more personal level. I also help residents with things like benefits and finances so they can focus on getting well. As Lead Shift, I help make sure everything runs smoothly and that both residents and staff feel supported.
What Drew Me to This Work🍃
My own journey is what brought me into this field. I understand how difficult addiction can be, and I wanted to give something back by helping others find their way through it. Being able to connect with people on that level really helps build trust.
What Makes It Meaningful🍃
For me, this work is all about people. Seeing someone come in feeling lost and then slowly start to rebuild their confidence and belief in themselves is incredibly powerful. It’s a reminder every day that recovery is possible.
Being Part of the Team🍃
What I enjoy most about working at Seasons is the team. Everyone supports each other, and there’s a real sense that we’re all working towards the same goal. It makes a big difference, not just for us, but for the residents too.
Most Rewarding Part🍃
The most rewarding part of my role is seeing the change in people. Watching someone achieve things they never thought they could is an amazing feeling and makes everything worth it.
The Impact I Hope to Have🍃
I just want people to know that recovery is possible. If I can help someone believe in themselves again and see a future for themselves, then I’ve done my job.
