In this episode, we’re shining a light on something truly transformative — The Peer Worker Apprenticeship, delivered by Paragon Skills in partnership with With-you.
As someone who has lived through life’s toughest challenges and come out the other side with empathy, strength, and a fierce sense of purpose, Nicky brings not just experience, but lived experience to the forefront of everything she does.
You’ll hear about how this apprenticeship is empowering people with their own personal recovery journeys to step into or progress within their professional roles when supporting others — not as clinicians, but as equals. It’s about turning pain into purpose, and story into service.
Whether you're already in the world of peer support or just curious about what this programme involves, Nicky offers a moving, real, and deeply personal take on what it means to grow, support, and walk alongside others in their experiences.
