Knowing & Doing Better

When we know better, we do better. So what do adoptive parents need to know? Erin shares what she's learning raising her own kids adopted from foster care and helping other parents too. That professional perspective that backs up her personal one really makes this episode sing with clarity. We talk about understanding our own triggers, values and overwhelm which I know can be huge issues for you. Enjoy.

Here's a bit about Erin from her website:

My name is Erin Bouchard. Together with my husband, Joel I have been a foster parent since 2011. We adopted out of the foster care system in 2014. Over the years I have learned a lot through our experiences about early trauma. My goal is to help foster and adoptive parents learn about the impacts of early trauma. I teach and educate about connection and attachment.
