Anxiety is one of the most common mental health conditions in the world—and as new social workers, it's essential to understand how to recognize it, support clients dealing with it, and manage it in ourselves.In this episode of Social Workers, Rise!, host Catherine Moore, LCSW, breaks down everything you need to know about anxiety from a clinical and practical lens. Whether you're in supervision, just graduated with your MSW, or supporting high-risk populations, this episode is for you.

Guest post by Catherine Moore, Business Change & Design ROI Practice Lead at Codec Many businesses invest in AI expecting instant transformation, but technology alone doesn't create impact. Success depends on the framework that supports it. Without the right structure, roadmap and expert guidance, even the best AI investments will fall short. Why do so many initiatives fall short? It often comes down to a disconnect between ambition and execution. Ambition drives investment, but execution requires clarity, focus and the right internal foundations. In this article, we'll uncover how to close that gap. You'll see why success starts with asking the right questions, building for adaptability and designing AI around people - not just processes. This is where intention meets impact. The missing link between AI ambition and execution Structure and guidance must be bespoke to the business executing the implementation. AI implementation may lack the necessary structure to succeed if it does not focus on a specific business need. In my experience, the gap between AI theory and real-world application is vast. It is easy to be inspired by stories of AI-powered transformation, but implementations are only truly transformative if they benefit your business. To bridge the gap between ambition and execution, companies must start by clearly defining their ambitions. Analysing these ambitions and narrowing them down to a specific set of definitions helps focus efforts on one or two use cases that can be effectively executed. It is important to recognise that we are operating in a dynamic space that is in constant evolution and the growth rate is significant. It is likely that the AI we see now will be vastly different and better in a year's time. Being ready for execution means having an experimental mindset which can grow and evolve as the industry will. Here is a list of actions that companies must take to ensure AI adoption can drive real business value rather than becoming an expensive mistake. Starting with the right questions Businesses need to start with clear objectives, aligning AI adoption with measurable outcomes rather than generic innovation goals. Instead of asking 'what AI tool can we use?', leaders should ask: What problem is slowing us down? Where are we leaking time, resource or value? What goals are we struggling to reach? Addressing business needs ensures solutions tackle real-life problems and everyday challenges that employees encounter such as resource optimisation, operational efficiency and/or customer experience. By targeting issues that delay or cause frustration to employees, companies ensure that their investment adds real value to daily activities performed by the business. This approach not only focuses on resolving existing issues, but also gains trust from within the organisation. AI will likely form part of an overall digital strategy and it is therefore important to prepare the wider business to adapt to future challenges and opportunities. For success, companies will need to rethink how AI integrates into their business strategy. AI is not a plug-and-play solution; it requires clear success criteria, a structured implementation plan, as well as a modular and iterative roadmap. It also requires a significant investment in time, personnel and budget - it is crucial therefore, that this investment is targeted and value-focused. AI adoption isn't plug-and-play Expecting AI to work perfectly from day one is very optimistic. Unlike traditional software, AI is probabilistic - it learns, improves and requires ongoing refinement, even in cases where it performs well without prior training. Once again, this process becomes much easier and faster when you have someone guiding you through it and troubleshooting along the way. A widely repeated concept that often gets lost in practice is that AI's greatest value lies in augmenting decision-making, not replacing humans. Instead of asking where AI can cut costs and speed...
