“Let me start off by saying I’m not a huge fan of podcasts. If I do listen to a podcast it has to be a very specific top on one of my few interests and the podcaster’s voice has to have a certain level of ASMR to it or I lose interest. Because I am very picky I was only subscribed to one podcast before this. I can listen to the School for School Counselors podcast for hours and hours because it’s so relaxing! Not only that but the information is realistic. Yeah, I know ASCA says this and that but they aren’t advocating for change their just hoping we will speak up and do the work on their behalf. It’s not real! It’s not what’s happening right now! Right now I have to do things I don’t necessarily want to (because ASCA doesn’t REALLY advocate for us)but do because I need to work and I love my students. So, are we supposed to do 504 coordination? No! Yet so many counselors are tasked with 504 coordination. ASCA tells us not to do 504s but do you think telling a principal that because ASCA tells us not to do something they are going to say “okay, you sure showed me!” Change takes time and this podcast acknowledges that. It’s also realistic in the sense that the information isn’t being presented to show off how good someone is. Let’s face it, so many counseling groups and group admins are giving bad information because they think it makes them look smart and people will need them. Even the more popular group admins that seem like they are being helpful are just in it for the money and don’t care if their information is accurate (and you know who you are.) The information in the School for School Counselors podcast is reliable, relatable, and realistic to implement. I give this podcast five stars and truly I don’t know who would give it any less than that because this podcast is IT. Also, I think the world needs to know that if ASCA got replaced with School for School Counselors we would all be better off. I know that’s a tough opinion but I 100 percent feel that way and I’m not sorry about it. Thank you to the School for School Counselor’s team for giving us this podcast. It is a treasure. 💃🏽 and yes this emoji is how I feel after I listen to this podcast.”
