Join us this week as we chat to Sass Boucher and Kate Collier from SelfCare Psychology, an organisation dedicated to providing support for practitioners at risk of professional trauma and fatigue.

In the episode, we explore the complex challenges faced by those working in care through the lens of SelfCare's 'Umbrella of Professional Trauma and Fatigue', and we examine the strategies for mitigating these issues by following their 'Five Pillars of Protection' framework.

We also discuss how to recognise the signs of professional trauma, practical tips for prioritising personal wellbeing, how we can contribute to creating a supportive working environment and much more...

We'll be back with a whole new episode on Wednesday 12 June.
