For the first 40 years of my life, I struggled with belonging and understanding who I truly was. Growing up in foster care for my first seven years left me with deep feelings of abandonment and being unwanted. Healing those wounds took time, reflection, and compassion. Now, I want to offer that same understanding to others who have faced similar experiences. You are not alone in feeling lost, unseen, or unsure of your place in the world. Together, we can talk through the pain, build a sense of self-worth, and find peace in knowing that healing and belonging are possible.
