About this episode

The episode features a conversation with Eric Williams about the impact of foster care and growing up in group homes.

Road To Legacy Podcast sits down with Eric Williams, Senior Director at HeartShare St. Vincent’s Services, for a raw and deeply personal conversation about growing up in group homes—and how foster care didn’t just change our paths, it saved our lives. Together, we reflect on childhoods shaped by instability, the mentors and systems that stepped in when families couldn’t, and the moments that helped transform survival into purpose. This episode explores brotherhood, accountability, and how growing up in care helped mold us into the men, leaders, and advocates we are today. This is a conversation about healing, growth, and building legacy—no matter where you start.
