    In this powerful episode, I’m joined for the first time by my now co-author, Dr. John DeGarmo—one of the leading voices in foster care, adoption, and child advocacy.

    Together, we unpack the reality of foster parent burnout, the staggering turnover rates, and the critical gaps in the system that demand national attention.
