On this podcast we want to not only share opinions of experts on child health issues but also delve into the stories of people living these experiences, be that parents or inspiring young people! 

What better way to start than with my story. From growing up in foster care,  to my childhood experiences and what has led me to becoming a psychologist and being so passionate about child health.
