In this episode of The ReStoried Podcast, we're privileged to hear the touching story of Stacey, a devoted foster and adoptive mom, and Asia, whose journey through addiction and mental health struggles led to her losing custody of her children. Stacey's path intersected with Asia's as she became the foster parent to Asia's kids, offering not just stability but a lifeline of support during her darkest moments. Through Stacey's unwavering guidance and encouragement, Asia found the strength to seek treatment and embark on a journey of recovery, with faith as her anchor. Their story underscores the profound impact of nurturing relationships with biological families in foster care. Stacey's role transcended mere caregiving to become a beacon of hope and stability for Asia. Today, Asia considers Stacey not just a friend but a mother figure, a testament to the transformative power of love and support. Together, Stacey and Asia now co-parent the children, showcasing the beautiful evolution of their relationship and the importance of unified caregiving in the journey of healing and redemption. Join us in this episode as we celebrate the resilience of the human spirit through Christ and the importance of connections in the journey of co-parenting and restoration.Episode Highlights: Stacey & Asia’s Background Story Foster Care Struggles with Addiction & Mental Health Relationships with Bio Families The importance of community Living Life with a Blended Family Find more on Guest:Dwell Retreat Sky Hope Recovery Program for Women Find More on Hope Bridge:Visit Our Website Follow us on InstagramFollow us on Facebook Foster Our Community Instagram This show has been produced by Adkins Media Co.Learn more about Hope for the Journey TBRI TrainingLearn more about Building Trauma-Informed Spaces with Kim Botto
