What does it mean to grow up without a permanent home and still find your way? In this episode, we sit down with someone who spent their childhood navigating the foster care system. Through honest reflection, they share stories of instability, resilience, and the moments that shaped who they are today. Every childhood is different, and every childhood comes with its own challenges. This week, we’re joined by CLC young adult Gia Slaton in conversation with Noel Thompson.
