If you have always been meaning to get onto the Podcast train, this is certainly the year to do it as we all go virtual in our daily lives.

Podcasts are perfect for clinicians who are always on the go. The audio format makes it easy to fit into your everyday life, whether that is on your way to work, at the gym or while cooking dinner.

Whether you are a Social Worker, Counsellor or Psychologist, you are no doubt always looking to update and expand your knowledge. Finding time to do this can be tough, especially during a pandemic!

There are a huge number of podcasts that are relevant to practicing and aspiring Allied Health professionals. If you are new to the podcast life, we have put together a list of favourites chosen by our community of Socials Workers to get you started.

If you have any other podcasts you would recommend, we would love to hear from you.
