About this Podcast
HOST: Welcome to the podcast, everyone. I'm thrilled to have Dr. Jane Smith with us today, an expert in youth mentorship and trauma resilience. Dr. Smith, let's dive into the Masterclass Certificate in Trauma Resilience for Youth Mentors. What inspired you to create this course? GUEST: As a seasoned youth mentor, I noticed a gap in available training for trauma-informed care. This course aims to equip mentors with practical skills to support traumatized youth better. HOST: That's much needed. Can you share some current industry trends that are relevant to this course? GUEST: Absolutely. Trauma-informed care is gaining traction, recognizing the impact of trauma on child development. We also see a shift towards holistic, strengths-based approaches, focusing on resilience rather than pathology. HOST: Interesting. And what are some challenges faced in the field or while learning/teaching this subject? GUEST: Two major challenges are stigma around mental health and lack of resources for evidence-based trainings. Breaking stigma and making quality resources accessible is crucial for effective youth mentorship. HOST: I couldn't agree more. Where do you see the future of trauma-informed care in youth mentorship? GUEST: I believe it will become a standard. As society becomes more trauma-aware, integrating trauma-informed care into mainstream youth work will be essential for better outcomes. HOST: Dr. Smith, it's been a pleasure talking with you today. Thanks for sharing your insights with us. GUEST: Thank you for having me. It's been a pleasure. Remember, enroll today and transform your mentoring approach, empowering youth to thrive!
