195: Foster Care + Adoption + White Saviorism with Ellie Coburn

The Broads are joined by Ellie Coburn to chat about her experience fostering and adopting. First they discuss her personal journey, the loss of her father, and her battle with mental health. Then they dive into her time overseas and white saviorism, how she began fostering at the age of 21, what she has learned about fostering, her experience adopting, being a queer single person in the foster/adoption community, and so much more. ELLIE COBURN: Follow on instagram: https://www.instagram.com/elliecoburn/**Stay tuned for her upcoming podcast - Chatty Broads will post links for it when it drops! THANKS TO OUR SPONSORS AND THEIR DEALS: PRETTY LITTER: Go to prettylitter.com promo code CHATTY for 20% off.CANDID: Get $75 off Candid’s starter kit at candidco.com/chatty and use code “CHATTY”FUNCTION OF BEAUTY: Go to FunctionofBeauty.com/broads for 20% off!PUBLIC GOODS: Go to publicgoods.com/CHATTY or use code CHATTY at checkout to receive $15 off your first order!See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
