My day:
Well, what I've done today is give my mind & my heart to push for equity, social justice & fairness for every child, young person and family which crossed my path.
I do this every day and I was driven to join this profession because of those values.

Being an EP is an honour; hard won, but a position of privilege is innate in our work.
Today, I used my advantages to advocate for those whose voices aren't heard as loudly. The 'slipping through the net' kid. The 'no-one is listening' parent.

I did that yesterday too, and I will do it tomorrow, and on and on.
Sometimes, the power and the responsibility scares me, but I am driven by my heart. I'm not a scientist! This is about gut instinct, empathy, hope, love for fellow humans.

'That' article in @psychmag inflamed me. I spoke of disinfecting its abhorrence with sunshine. It does not reflect my views, a position I heartily believe most of my colleagues share.
Some don't. That's painful.

I can't change everything
or very much at all. But I have power & privilege. I am blessed with compassion and curiosity. I feel pain. Social justice is at the core of my EP work and I am so proud of that.
