About this episode

The episode discusses the initial challenges and logistics of foster care life after the emotional upheaval settles.

In this episode, I’m sharing what those first couple of weeks of foster life really looked like once the big emotions settled and the to-do list kicked in. Think doctor appointments, home visits, daycare searches, and a whole lot of extra coordinating I didn’t know I had signed up for. Plus, a shocking introduction that nobody saw coming!
