The Care Leaders's Podcast
Tired of the same old talk about children's social care? Us too. That's why we created "Conversations That Care."
Hosted by lived experience leader Luke Rodgers BEM and professional powerhouse Karylle Phillips, this isn't your average podcast. We're ditching the buzzwords and diving into the REAL issues facing children in care, care leavers and those with a social worker today.
Think: corporate parenting gone wild, the messy truth about "placements," and why leaving care often feels like a disaster. We're not afraid to ask the tough questions and challenge the status quo.
Join us monthly as we unpack your burning questions, share hard-won wisdom, and explore what it truly means to lead with care.
Whether you're a seasoned professional or new to the field, The Care Leaders podcast offers valuable insights and practical advice to help you enhance your practice and make a real difference in the lives of children and young people.

The Care Leaders's Podcast
Communication: How to talk to teenagers so they talk back to you
In this episode we hear from Luke Rodgers and Karylle Phillips, both lived experience leaders, and Dave Linton, the founder of Madlug, the focus is on how to effectively communicate with teenagers.
The discussion centers around the fact that teenagers in care often present a particular challenge, and many adults struggle to connect with them. We delve into the reasons behind this and explore the ways in which adults can engage with young people to foster better communication.
We discuss the importance of recognising the history and trauma that many of these teenagers have experienced, and how this impacts their behaviour and communication. We also talk about the common triggers that adults experience when communicating with teenagers, and how these can be overcome.
The episode is titled "Communication: How to Get Teenagers to Talk Back to You" and aims to provide insights and strategies for anyone working with young people, particularly those in care, to improve communication and build stronger relationships.
