From the age of eight, Mikey Doucet lived in uncertainty. Who would truly care for him? Would he have enough to eat? Would he get along with the people who were supposed to be responsible for him or would he end up on the outside of another closed door holding all his belongings?

Instead of losing his entire childhood to despair, he found ways to foster hope and dream of a better future and a happier, more secure version of himself. He found that fitness played an important role in helping him maintain his resilience.

Now, he shares his story in the hope of helping others become who they were meant to be and to make it safe for the important conversations that SHOULD be had about improving care for foster youth everywhere.

This is something of a change a pace episode for us, and we’re thankful that Mikey was able to join us. You can find him on IG and Threads at @mikeydoucet and on YouTube.
