    The Kindness Code - Episode 15 - What is The Kindness Code?

    What is the Kindness Code? This week we flipped the script. Chelsea Bailey took the mic and put me in the hot seat to talk about why I created the Kindness Code, and all about the podcast and the app. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

    The Kindness Code - Episode 14 - with Louise Allen

    "I am who I am, and that's it. I like me. Me is okay." That's Louise Allen -Sunday Times bestselling author, foster carer, and founder of Spark Sisterhood, a charity supporting girls leaving care. A care leaver herself, Louise now spends her life giving other care-experienced girls what she never had: a nervous system training programme five years in the making, a charity that fills the support gap care leavers face, and a voice loud enough to challenge every assumption we make about "behaviour." Her line for anyone working with young people in care: the truth will always do. You don't have to sugarcoat it -you just have to stay. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

    The Kindness Code - Episode 13 - It takes a village: why residential care IS a family setting

    The consensus in children's services is that foster care is preferable because it offers a family setting. But whose definition of family are we using? This episode challenges one of the most quiet assumptions in our sector. Across most of the world, children are raised by villages - by communities of consistent, loving adults. When a looked after child lives that reality, we call it institutional. It's time to change that. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

    The Kindness Code - Episode 12 - with Andy Baker (2)

    Nobody taught them what they feel. because nobody ever sat with them and said: that feeling in your chest? That's anger. That one? That's sad. That one? That's love. That one? That's excitement. / Andy Baker made a point in this week's episode that I haven't been able to shake. If a child doesn't know they're getting angry…they can't stop themselves from hitting. If nobody described their emotions when they were small, they're not choosing to be dysregulated. They literally don't have the words or understand. He compared it to potty training. You wouldn't punish a child for accidents if they couldn't feel they needed the toilet. You'd watch for the jiggles. You'd help them connect the feeling to the action. That's what good residential care looks like. Watching for the jiggles. 🎙️ The Kindness Code with Andy Baker — author of Targeting the Positive Hosted on Acast.

    The Kindness Code - Episode 11 - Identity, culture & belonging: who am I when my story keeps changing?

    Four homes. Three schools. Two surnames. How does a looked after child answer the question "who are you?” - and what happens when nobody helps them figure it out? This episode makes the case that identity is one of the strongest protective factors we consistently underinvest in. We cover disconnection, why most life story work falls short, and the single question every professional can ask in their next visit that costs nothing and changes everything. Hosted on Acast.

    The Kindness Code - Episode 10 - with Jane Keenan

    This is so important. Please share this with anyone who works in children’s homes, foster care, education, or anywhere around children who have been let down by adults. Loved this convo with Jane Keenan - she has 37 years experience and this podcast is incredible for learning - because making difference in care is about is constantly learning: How we show up better for our kids. How we put our ego aside. How we stop needing to be seen as the good adult and make sure we are the safe adult. Self awareness, self care and most importantly being committed to continually learning and growing is the key to this incredibly important but often exhausting work. Our kids need adults who can reflect, apologise, repair, and keep learning. We also talked about the work Jane is doing around care-experienced adults - importantly her new podcast The Emerging Changemakers Podcast (release date TBC) There are so many powerful voices in this space - people who experience care and have actual lived experiences to share - and they are helping to shape the sector. I’ve spoken to a lot to care leavers and the same message comes through - believe in the kids, believe that they can and will, have aspirations for them.  Because if we only talk about the worst outcomes, what subliminal expectations are we putting on our children? “We have no business capping the aspiration and opportunities for our children, simply by bringing a belief that they will never amount to anything." CARE LEAVERS CAN AND DO. This line should be in every home, every school, every team meeting.

    The Kindness Code - Episode 9 - The 2am shift

    The 2am shift: therapeutic parenting when you're exhausted, understaffed and on your own   It's 2am. A young person is in crisis. You've been on shift for nine hours. And someone in your training told you to stay regulated.   This episode gets honest about what therapeutic parenting really looks like at the sharp end of a night shift - why night time is uniquely triggering for looked after children, what the window of tolerance means when you're running on empty, and what organisations consistently get wrong about supporting the people doing this work.   Plus, three things any residential worker can do tonight.   Identity, culture & belonging: who am I when my story keeps changing?

    The Kindness Code - Episode 8 - with Sam Gardner

    "I didn't leave the care system. The care system left me."   Sam Gardner spent 21 years in care. He now delivers transformative talks and training for those supporting care-experienced children -and is one of the most powerful voices in the sector.   His message to anyone working with children in care comes down to one word:   Stay.   Stay when they push you away. Stay when they call you Mum and then never call anyone Mum again. Stay when the seeds you plant won't grow for ten years.   This episode broke me a little. I hope it lands with you too.
