I still remember the moment everything shifted-the knock on the door, the voices I didn't expect to hear, and the trash bag for belongings. This is where my story begins: the day I entered the foster care system.

In this first episode, I'm sharing what led to that moment, what it felt like, and why I believe stories like mine matter. It's raw, real, and just the beginning of a journey l've spent years trying to understand.

Stick around for the reflection question at the end-you just might find a piece of your own story in mine.

As always, keep building.
