I offered my first HOPE:Healthy Outcomes for Positive Experiences training today since becoming a Certified HOPE facilitator. ✨

This was done as part of Social Work Month and World Social Day for our students. I love how this training provides the research support for how Positive Childhood Experiences (PCEs) can overcome Adverse Chilhood Experiences (ACEs). 🩵

Happy Pi(e) Day! 🥧

We can enjoy all kinds of varieties! From the Social Work PIE (Person In Environment perspective) to baked pies and pizza pies to mud pies! It’s a fun day to celebrate all things pi/pie. 🩵

I did some thrift and antique shopping later this afternoon while still in Shelbyville. I discovered this special praying Willow Tree figurine in great condition with a lovely tree on her dress at the Goodwill there for $3.99. (Retail is $31.99!) She is called: “A Tree, A Prayer.” Perfect for me!

I had not seen this one before today. Finding this is especially meaningful right now. I can’t wait to put her on my desk where I can see her almost every day and be reminded. Love her! 🌲💗🙏

I have found this is so often true. I needed to “unplug” and was able to do a 24 hour getaway at a Bed & Breakfast in Shelbyville yesterday through today.

It does not have to be a big investment in time or money to take some needed time away for ourselves and get a lot in return.

Each one of us is worth our time- even to unplg for a while. 🩵

Over the next few weeks. we're going to be highlighting some Social Work Pioneers in celebration of your special month (and they all happen to be women... did you know that it is also Women's History Month?!). Come along with us on a journey through the lives of some of the individuals who have shaped the field of Social Work into what it is today. First up, the Mother of Social Work, Jane Addams.

On this eighth day of Social Work Month, which is also International Women’s Day, I want to give a shout out for all the “wonder women” I know in our field! Social Work is our superpower!🌟

I especially want to give an acknowledgment to all my fellow clinical social work colleagues who work with and advocate for children, and those who are also child/family/play therapists. 💗

Thank you to all social workers who dedicate yourselves and your careers to helping others. You are true heroes! No capes required! However for those of us who are social workers and play therapists- we have capes and more!💥

On this fourth day of Social Work Month, I’m sharing this image- as it’s also my younger son’s 29th birthday- who loves all things Star Wars! 🥳
