It’s hard to believe we’ve reached December—what a year it’s been! But let’s be real: Millennials have been saying “we’re TIYAAD” for decades, and for good reason. In this episode, we dive into the unique stressors facing Millennials today, from global events to systemic challenges and how these pressures impact mental health and well-being.
We also explore how the field of social work has evolved over the years, comparing the practices of yesteryear with the realities of modern-day social work. Whether you’re navigating the high demands of the profession or trying to balance your personal life, this episode sheds light on the pressures social workers—and Millennials in general—face.
Did you know that according to a Deloitte study, 39% of Millennials report feeling stressed “all or most of the time?" Stress like this can be overwhelming, making self-care and connection to supportive communities essential. That’s why we’re sharing a few strategies to manage stress, shift your mindset and tackle challenges head-on.
Tune in for an honest, relatable and thought-provoking discussion. This episode is perfect for social workers, Millennials and anyone looking to understand the intersection of generational stress and the evolving world of social work.
