Stress is an inevitable part of life, especially in the demanding field of social work.  In this episode, we explore the impact of stress on social workers both personally and collectively.  More importantly, we dive into practical strategies for understanding how we respond to stress and how to manage it effectively.

From relatable insights to actionable advice (and a few laughs along the way), this episode is packed with value for social workers looking to prioritize their well-being while continuing to serve others.

Social workers of color face immense challenges—systemic racism, underfunding, and overwhelming caseloads. They work tirelessly to support others but often lack the support they need. That’s why we created the Queens of Social Work Podcast—a lifeline and safe space for social workers of color to vent, share, laugh, and find the resources they need to thrive.
