The Fearless Fostering Podcast

What I Wish I Had During My First Placement


Listen Later

And why I built Fearless Fostering to give it to you.When I got the call for our first placement, I wanted to feel ready.I had taken the classes. I had read the books. I had organized the bedroom.But when that little one crossed our threshold for the first time…I realized how much I wasn’t prepared for.Not because I didn’t care.But because foster care is not just logistics.It’s a thousand emotions at once — grief, love, guilt, hope, anger, fear — and no roadmap for how to hold it all.I created Fearless Fostering because I never want another mama to feel as alone, confused, and emotionally overwhelmed as I did back then.Today, I want to tell you exactly what I needed during my first placement — and why Fearless Fostering exists to give you what I didn’t have.Enrollment closes tonight at midnight, and the program begins tomorrow, July 1st. If your heart’s been whispering “yes,” I hope this post helps you say it out loud.Join Fearless Fostering Here: https://fearlessfostering.selfcarebestie.com/fearless-fosteringHop on a call with me TODAY, June 30, 2025 here: https://calendly.com/cbearsecounseling/fearless-fostering-interview?month=2025-06
