Today I'm joined by a woman whose story and wisdom will encourage every heart feeling stretched thin: Kim Patton.

Kim is an adoptive and foster mom living in North Carolina. She’s the author of two books — with a third on the way in 2026 — and she’s the host of the Book Therapy podcast, where she helps readers find hope through honest, faith-filled conversations about life and literature.

In this episode, Kim opens up about:

  • How her faith anchors her through the unique challenges of adoption and foster parenting.
  • Why self-care is more than bubble baths — and how it keeps her present for the people who need her most.
  • The honest struggles behind her latest book, Nothing Wasted, and how God uses every hard thing for a greater purpose.

If you’ve ever wondered how to depend on God while carrying so much for others, Kim’s story will remind you that you’re not alone — and that nothing is wasted in His hands.
