What I also like is the ‘banter’...Read full review »

This is a great podcast - I’ve really enjoyed hearing how ideas from systemic practice can be used in the social care setting and love hearing the different perspectives they each bring / those of the guests they’re inviting along! I’m excited to hear what else you will all be discussing.

This show really amplifies lulls in my day such as cooking or driving, as these three make my brain tick in overdrive, this podcast makes me poke my own perspective and understanding and I love it for that.
