Hey, my name is Shalonda, your host. This podcast is about foster care and our experiences growing up in custody. We want to highlight success stories to give the next generation tips on how they can survive foster care and thrive after. I share my experience and advice for what I did and didn't do while giving the lessons that I learned. I look forward to interviewing foster youth, foster parents, caseworkers, and biological families to understand the full story so we all can understand how to work together to create a better system.
