About this listen

Welcome Back! Todays episode is all about Capacity for Care and Compassion Fatigue.

Both topics feed into one another and can certainly make or break the shelter culture as a whole.

Discretion is advised as I swear a little more than normal, and these two topics bring about sensitive topics and emotional responses. (From me... and maybe you too).

ADDITIONAL DISCRETION: brief mentions of suicidal statistics.
