About this listen

 Join Jen and Sheldon every second Wednesday as they chat with the individuals who have found their calling in the support field. We explore stories of resiliency, compassion, trauma, and healing. Every person has a story to tell and every voice deserves to be heard. Mental health stigma, systemic racism, lack of resources, and marginalization are some of the challenges vulnerable people face every day. Directly Speaking offers a supportive, safe space to discuss these issues and more. Through open conversation about what it means to be an advocate and an ally, we hope to inspire, inform, educate, and learn along with our community.Copyright 2023 All rights reserved.

    Join Jen and Sheldon every second Wednesday and connect with the people who have found their calling in the support field. We explore personal stories that define and inspire us. Stories of resilience, hope, loss and new found perspectives.

    Support work comes from a place of compassion, commitment to growth, and a belief that every person has worth. This field attracts an incredible and diverse group of individuals. Their stories inform our personal and shared beliefs about humanity and community.

    If you're a fan of heartfelt stories, dialogues about how we can work together to build a better world and delicious food recommendations then check out Directly Speaking wherever you download your favourite podcasts.
