Description

"In Conversation" is a parallel series where we invite lived experience speakers to come share our stories with us. 

In this episode, Paige Buck, a lived experience advocate, shares her journey growing up in care and the experiences that inspired her to become a lawyer, advocating for children and families navigating the child protection system.

Best Interests thanks all lived experience advocates who talk openly and courageously about their experiences for the benefit of others. 

Best Interests Children’s Law Podcast is sponsored by Ex Curia: Coaching & Consulting Pty Ltd, Meliora Psychology and Claudia Grimberg Lawyers.

Got questions, comments, compliments or something to add
to the discussion? We'd love to hear from you on our website.
