The Fearless Fostering Podcast

What Adoptive Parents Need to Know with Melody Welles


Listen Later

I absolutely couldn't wait to share this conversation I had with former foster youth, adoptee and advocate (and Ivy League college student!!) Melody Welles. Melody was so gracious to share vulnerably about the trauma she endured growing up in an adoptive home where she didn't feel part of the family or wanted, and how she is today using her platform to show foster youth what is possible when they believe their story is just part of their experience and it doesn't define them. She also shares amazing wisdom for foster and adoptive parents, so you don't want to miss this episode!!Follow Melody here: https://www.instagram.com/melody.adoptee/Get more support on your foster care journey here: https://stan.store/fearless_fostering
