In this heartfelt and eye-opening conversation, I sit down with Hannah and Samantha from Family Pathways to explore their "why"--the deep purpose behind their work in the foster care system. Together, we break down what it truly means to put children first, the complexities of the fostering journey, and how we can collectively build systems that support not just placement, but healing, stability, and long-term well-being. Whether you're a caregiver, advocate, or simply curious about how the foster system works, this episode offers honest insight and hopeful perspective from two women, Hannah & Samantha, doing the work every day.
