SWM.ep43 An insight from Sharon Jennings

‘I came……….and never went back…….I hadn’t come to
stay


In today’s episode, we welcome Sharon Jennings – Deputy Delivery
Lead for the Practice Supervision Development Programme aka the
PSDP and an Independent Training Consultant.


 


Sharon came to the UK over 40yrs ago, she did not come to stay
but remained in London where she worked, raised her children and
has felt most at home.


 


She undertook a psychology degree back home, as she wanted to
understand people, her interests expanded to include community
and policy. As you will hear, Sharon is full of positive energy
for her work and has four decades of experience in Social Work
and Education.


 


As a mother of three daughters there were challenges, and as she
quite honestly does not know how she managed to balance her
professional and personal life, but she did.  


 


Sharon reflects on her work in University settings and discusses
her views and approach to education and what she aims to achieve
with students, whom she continues to work with.


 


We go on to discuss racism, allyship and the pandemic. Sharon was
another great guest who shared wisdom, insight and a fantastic
sense of humour.
