The Cupboard That Changed My Career: Why Good Training Starts With How You Learn

This might be the most important episode I’ve ever shared. It’s about a cupboard — but really, it’s about care, action, and what it means to truly learn as a social worker. I tell the story of a messy cupboard in my first job, how clearing it shaped the way I’ve approached learning ever since, and why I believe training isn’t something you can just “do” to people. If you’ve ever wondered what makes good social work training work, or why I care so deeply about The Social Work Collective Academy, this episode explains everything. 👉 Join The Collective Academy for reflective, bite-sized, high-quality training for newly qualified social workers: https://www.socialworksorted.com/subscriptions 👉 For organisations seeking in-person or bespoke safeguarding training, visit https://www.socialworksorted.com/thecollective Lets connect!
