Join Marcy for a long overdue update on life and foster care.
Our conversation focuses on positive and productive relations between foster families, biological families, and kinship resources. While it places us in a space of vulnerability and potential uncomfortableness, we discuss the benefits of having a positive and transparent relationship in this, sometimes taboo, topic. -
In Part Two of a two part episode Marcy explores the place that is often the hardest, especially in foster care - vulnerability. Acknowledging the pain that comes along with foster care caring for children from hard places from the perspective of a foster parent and a trauma informed therapist. The moments can be hard but they are real. Join us with vulnerability and grace to talk about it. Being vulnerable and acknowledging our own feelings in foster care brought on by the system, our kids, etc. doesn’t make us selfish. It makes us real.
