Season 2 Episode 15: Youth Worker Wellbeing with Adam Muirhead
<p>EXCITING NEWS for July - more details in the episode and by clicking th links below.</p> <p>In this second season of the podcast we have been mainly focusing on conversations with people about creating new opportunities, communities and spaces for young people & youth workers to engage with as a result of the pandemic. My book, From Isolation to Community: Youth Work in the Covid Era and Beyond captures a snapshot of what has been happening in this past year & is available now.</p> <p>One of my passions has been supporting those who work with young people and this was part of the aim of the book, to showcase and reflect on the work that’s happening up and down the country. I also offer mentoring for youth workers, regular sessions over a 6 month period to support youth workers in their roles, acting as a sounding board, as an encourager to make small changes or to think different things through. If you’re interested in mentoring or having conversations about the themes from the book then I am available for book clubs, for resourcing and reflecting with your team or for encouraging youth workers to consider the impact of this pandemic and how we can move forward. You can buy the book or get in touch by going to my website <a href="http://www.jenniosborn.org/">www.jenniosborn.org</a>and clicking on one of the options there.</p> <p>This episode is a conversation with Adam Muirhead from the Trust for Community Development in Brighton. We talk about youth work and politics, the creativity and flexibility of youth workers during this past year in particular that can also lead to burnout because, for the most part, we are natural ‘helpers’ and ‘doers’. There’s something very profound about the concept of doing less, better in our work and making small changes that will have a big impact.</p> <p>Book your space on The Retreat by going to my Facebook page: @jennitalks and looking for the events tab or by clicking this link to the Eventbrite page <a href="https://www.eventbrite.co.uk/o/jenni-osborn-33475740273" target="_blank">https://www.eventbrite.co.uk/o/jenni-osborn-33475740273</a> You can also email me on hello@jenniosborn.org </p> <p><br></p>

Season 2 Episode 14 Hot Chocolate and Young People with Charis Robertson
Hello and welcome to season 2 of the Jenni Talks podcast. In this season we are going to focus on conversations with people about creating new opportunities, communities and spaces for young people & youth workers to engage with as a result of the pandemic. My book, From Isolation to Community: Youth Work in the Covid Era and Beyond which captures a snapshot of what has been happening in this past year is available now. One of my passions has been supporting those who work with young people and this was part of the aim of the book, to showcase and reflect on the work that’s happening up and down the country. I also offer mentoring for youth workers, regular sessions over a 6 month period to support youth workers in their roles, acting as a sounding board, as an encourager to make small changes or to think different things through. If you’re interested in mentoring or having conversations about the themes from the book then I am available for book clubs, for resourcing and reflecting with your team or for encouraging youth workers to consider the impact of this pandemic and how we can move forward. You can buy the book or get in touch by going to my website www.jenniosborn.organd clicking on one of the options there. This episode is a conversation with Charis Robertson from Hot Chocolate in Dundee. They are one of the organisations which are included in the book, and I wanted to find out bit about where things are at for them right now, at a time when much of the UK is emerging from lockdown. I remember hearing about Hot Chocolate at the time that it was just beginning its work with young people. The idea of ‘meeting young people where they are at’ is one which permeates a lot of youth work, whether it’s faith based or not, and I have loved talking to many for whom it is their clarion call. The values of Hot Chocolate are unashamedly Christian, values of radical inclusion, of binding the broken hearted and of offering freedom for young people to be the truest version of themselves. It began 20 years ago with cups of hot chocolate and a listening ear, it continues with pool tables and art classes and mental health support even at a time of tight restrictions. Find Hot Chocolate on www.hotchocolate.org.uk and also on Google maps!

Season 2 Episode 13 Faith & Doubt with Joe Davis
<p>Hello and welcome to season 2 of the Jenni Talks podcast. In this season we are going to focus on conversations with people about creating new opportunities, communities and spaces for young people & youth workers to engage with as a result of the pandemic. My book, From Isolation to Community: Youth Work in the Covid Era and Beyond which captures a snapshot of what has been happening in this past year is available now from my website <a href="http://www.jenniosborn.org/">www.jenniosborn.org</a> in either Kindle or paperback format.</p> <p>On my website you will find more details about mentoring and training that I offer - do get in touch if you are interested.</p> <p>This episode is a conversation with Joe Davies of the Mid-Faith Crisis podcast. We talk about the process of deconstruction of faith, the need for questions and doubt to be a part of faith. This is a conversation that has a personal element to it for me, having had some really difficult times wrestling with faith and beliefs that I once followed without questioning suddenly becoming the source of many questions! I know that I am not the only one and wanted to have this conversation to connect with those listening who might feel similarly, maybe you’ve reached a place of acceptance with doubt and questions, maybe you’re just at the beginning of this process, either way I agree with Joe that it’s a necessary part of life and faith. It might feel like you’re in the chrysalis, hanging on by a thread but brighter days are coming…</p> <p>I hope you enjoy this conversation and don’t forget to share!</p> <p><strong>Get in touch with Joe </strong></p> <p><a href="https://www.facebook.com/midfaithcrisis">Facebook.com/midfaithcrisis</a> </p> <p><a href="https://midfaithcrisis.org/">midfaithcrisis.org</a></p> <p>joe@midfaithcrisis.org</p> <p><strong>Get in touch with Jenni</strong></p> <p><a href="https://www.facebook.com/jennitalks">Facebook.com/jennitalks</a></p> <p>jenniosborn.org</p> <p>hello@jenniosborn.org</p> <p><a href="https://twitter.com/jenni_talks">@jenni_talks</a></p>
