Where Real Conversations Meet Real Impact
Every episode dives into the world of child welfare, mental health, and social justice — bringing you stories of resilience, compassion, and the relentless pursuit of change. Hosted by Deandra Thomas, this is more than a podcast — it’s a movement for every advocate, social worker, and dreamer who believes in better systems and stronger communities.
We Don’t Just Talk About Change — We Create It
The Social Social Worker Podcast bridges the gap between professionals and the people we serve. Through authentic storytelling, expert interviews, and community partnerships, we amplify the voices shaping the future of social work. Our episodes aren’t just conversations — they’re calls to action that foster understanding, compassion, and collaboration.
“Every story has power — every voice deserves to be heard.”
Meet the Host
Deandra Thomas
Register ED Clinical Social Worker Intern • Advocate • Storyteller
I’m Deandra Thomas, founder and host of The Social Social Worker Podcast LLC — a space built to uplift, educate, and empower those working to make a difference in the lives of children and families.
After years in child welfare and advocacy, I’ve witnessed the challenges, heartbreaks, and breakthroughs that shape this profession. From late nights to life-changing moments, my goal was to create a space where these stories could finally be shared openly and honestly — without filters.
Beyond the mic, I’m dedicated to mentorship, community outreach, and system reform that helps families and frontline workers thrive. This podcast isn’t just about the profession — it’s about the people behind it. Together, we’re rewriting the narrative of what it means to serve.
