My day:

Well, what I& #39;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& #39;t heard as loudly. The & #39;slipping through the net& #39; kid. The & #39;no-one is listening& #39; 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& #39;m not a scientist! This is about gut instinct, empathy, hope, love for fellow humans.

& #39;That& #39; 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& #39;t. That& #39;s painful.

I can& #39;t change everything https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="😂" title="Gesicht mit Freudentränen" aria-label="Emoji: Gesicht mit Freudentränen"> 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.
