In this episode, Advocacy with Heart – Regan Phillips on Championing Children Through CASA OC, we sit down with Regan Phillips, CEO of CASA OC, whose life’s work is rooted in child advocacy, empathy, and the unwavering belief that every child deserves consistent care and connection. From intern at CASA NYC to now leading the Orange County chapter, Regan brings a powerful blend of legal expertise, intuition, and heartfelt purpose to her role.

We explore how Regan turned down the position at CASA OC twice before finally saying yes—trusting her gut that the timing needed to be right for her family and her calling. She shares how practicing law revealed that many professionals aren't apathetic but overwhelmed, which reframed her understanding of systemic issues and strengthened her resolve to make a difference.

More than a profession, CASA is her passion project. Through this work, she empowers volunteers to step in as advocates for children who often need just one reliable, caring adult to help them feel safe—and thrive.

We also discuss:

• The life-changing impact of one consistent adult in a child’s life

• Why Regan leads with intuition and empathy

• A heartwarming story of a child who found his voice—literally—through his advocate

• The thoughtful volunteer matching system CASA uses to create transformational relationships

• How you can support this vital mission and help children feel seen, heard, and valued

Regan’s story is a reminder that our timing, our intuition, and our willingness to show up can change lives.
