Episode 91: Connection is the Key to Healing Your Child's Heart—with Jenni Lord

  • Summary

  • Adopting our youngest son through the foster care system ten years ago was truly one of life’s greatest gifts. But one thing we didn’t fully understand as we looked forward to a bright future with our beloved little boy was just how much trauma a child suffers when they’re separated from their birth parents.

    Like many foster and adoptive parents, we are on a constant learning journey and are always looking for better ways to support our son through the unique struggles he experiences. That’s why we’re so grateful that Jenni Lord was able to join us for this candid conversation.

    Jenni founded Chosen—an organization committed to empowering parents and fostering children’s trauma recovery. Chosen connects families impacted by the child welfare system with the resources and support they need to move from hurting to healing.

    Jenni shares:

    • How trauma impacts the brain, body, and behaviors of youth in foster care
    • How prioritizing connection over correction can strengthen your parenting
    • The importance of creating safe spaces for your child to open up
    • And more!

    We hope you enjoy this conversation as much as we did!
