Working With Characters You Didn’t Choose: A conversation with Curt Thompson, MD
About this episode
Dr. Curt Thompson discusses the importance of collaboration and personal growth in communities serving children and families in foster care.
Great stories often begin with an unlikely ensemble—imperfect people learning to work together toward something bigger than themselves. That same dynamic plays out in communities working together to better serve children and families in foster care. Recorded at CAFO 2025, this episode features psychiatrist and author Dr. Curt Thompson in a conversation about collaboration, difference, and formation—and why God seems far more interested in who we are becoming than what we accomplish.
