    Social Work, Workplace Trauma & Institutional Betrayal | Heliana Ramirez

    Workplace trauma is real trauma, especially when racism, anti-LGBTQ bias, and institutional betrayal are part of the job. In Episode 34 of the Revolutionary Social Work Podcast, Alicia Stettler and Causha Spellman-Timmons host a grounded, practical conversation with Heliana Ramirez, PhD, LISW on toxic workplaces, psychological safety, culturally affirming crisis response, and what it takes to stay bold in advocacy without losing yourself. Ace was taking a burnout break from podcasting, and Alicia and Causha held it down. Website: RevolutionarySocialWork.com Connect / collaborate: castettler@alaska.edu Guest Links Website: https://www.workplacetraumarecovery.com/ Provider page: https://care.headway.co/providers/heliana-ramirez About Heliana Ramirez, PhD, LISW Heliana Ramirez is a clinical social worker and researcher focused on the trauma of toxic workplaces, including workplace racism and anti-LGBTQ bias. During her own recovery from a toxic workplace, she recognized how unprepared many mental health providers are to address the specific injuries of workplace abuse and institutional betrayal. Drawing on post-traumatic growth and peer support, she developed communal resources to reduce isolation and strengthen recovery, including culturally informed somatic interventions, career-protection tools, a self-help workbook, blog posts, and on-demand webinars for survivors and the clinicians and advocates who support them. Her work spans anti-racist and LGBTQ+ affirming workforce wellness, occupational psychosocial safety, culturally responsive suicide prevention, somatic trauma therapy, harm reduction, and liberatory community building.

    Liberation Social Work & Revolutionary Love | Brotha KD Kyle Toon

    In this episode of the Revolutionary Social Work Podcast, Alicia and Ace are joined by Brotha KD Kyle Toon — father, veteran, and Afrocentric Liberation Social Worker. Founder of Mental & Creative Liberation LLC, Brotha KD brings forward a practice rooted in ancestry, Afrocentric healing, and revolutionary love. Through his Gracefully Imperfect podcast, CREATIVST, and Soul Medicine Substack, he creates soul-centered spaces for Black empowerment, cultural reclamation, and collective wellness. This dialogue traces his journey from military service to liberation work, highlighting how family values, ancestral knowledge, and the pursuit of self-knowledge transform social work practice. We explore how Liberation Social Work and Revolutionary Social Work intersect: both are value-based frameworks calling us to disrupt alienation, uproot oppression, and center healing, kinship, and consciousness as the foundation for societal transformation. Liberation Social Work: Three Pillars Self & Community Healing: Addressing ancestral, historical, and intergenerational wounds. Self-Knowledge: The enduring process of “knowing thyself” as a path to reclaiming dignity and purpose. Social, Cultural, and Critical Consciousness: Anchoring liberation in ancestral wisdom, cultural worldview, and ethical practice. Together, these pillars resonate deeply with Revolutionary Social Work values of kinship, reflection, and love as praxis. Liberation Social Work insists on returning to source — to culture, soul, and Divine oneness — as the grounding for humanization and collective freedom. This episode calls us to remember: revolution is not an event but a continuous re-socialization. Healing and transformation begin within, extend to family and community, and ripple across generations.
