The Soul of a Specialist ft. Latysha

This week on Talk & Play, I sat down in the studio with Latysha, a brilliant Approved Mental Health Professional (AMHP) whose presence is as powerful as her purpose. As a specialist social worker, she’s faced with intense, life-altering decisions, and she meets every moment with compassion, clarity, and courage. Her perspective on mental health, responsibility, and empathy is grounded, soulful, and deeply human.

Outside the seriousness of her work, Latysha finds strength and balance in movement! She loves dancing, boxing, and hitting the gym. She reminds us that softness and strength can live in the same body. In this conversation, we dive into the emotional weight of her profession, the power of staying grounded, and why kindness is a radical act. It’s a powerful, honest episode
