In this episode of the Atypical Podcast, host Amie Archibald-Varley RN, MN and Jordan Varley BSW, RSW delves into the complex world of advocacy work, exploring the responsibilities within their professions (nursing and social work) as well as the challenges of advocacy work. The discussion sheds light on the troubling trend of performative allyship, where actions are often more about boosting one's social capital than effecting real change. Through candid conversations and personal anecdotes, Amy and her guests unpack the layers of intention and impact in advocacy, urging listeners to reflect on their own roles and responsibilities. Tune in for an insightful exploration of what it truly means to be an ally and advocate in today's world.
