This really resonated today. Grateful to work with some very genuine, skilled and insightful people who are working hard to support children and young people who have experienced trauma. This is a complicated time of year & #wintering is upon us. Talking things through helps āŗļø.
One conversation after another today- it's so uplifting to work with genuine, caring people. Simple as that. Ofc there's a massive strain & frustration out there, & yet there remains so much commitment to be thoughtful & kindhearted. I really felt that today, & it's restorative.
