What to Expect While Fostering and Adopting

How to Overcome Fear as a Foster Parent in your Foster Care and Adoption Journey


Listen Later

Welcome to the What to Expect While Fostering and Adopting podcast—a space created to provide guidance, encouragement, and real talk for foster and adoptive moms navigating the challenges of the system.

In this episode, we’re tackling one of the biggest struggles in this journey: fear. It’s so easy to let worry and uncertainty take over, but today, I’m sharing how to shift from a fear-based mindset to one grounded in love and trust in Jesus.

With experience fostering 77 children, I’ve learned firsthand how overwhelming this path can be. But I’ve also learned how to surrender control, release the stress, and find true peace in God’s plan—no matter what comes our way.

You’ll walk away from this episode with practical strategies to break free from anxiety, build unshakable faith, and create a home filled with grace and peace. You’re not in this alone—let’s do this together!

☕ Now, grab your cup of coffee, get comfy, and let’s dig in!

XO, Christine Marie
