The Purposed Platform Katie Roberts

In this episode, I have a conversation with my friend Shelbe Ward. Shelbe is a single foster mom who is also a full time teacher. If you have ever considered foster care, but think it’s not doable because you’re single, then this is the episode for you!
Shelbe has had 23 placements since her foster care journey began. When she started fostering kiddos, she was fresh out of college and just 22 years old. She tells some very vivid and graphic details of the reality of some of these kids' lives, as well as her perspective and heart through all the ups and downs. I’ll be honest, I cried during our conversation and I cried again listening to it. So you miiiight want to grab your tissues! As always, feel free to share on social media and tag me!
 
Enjoy!!
XO,
Katie

In this episode I sit down with my friend Jordan Owens as she gives me a glimpse into her unimaginable childhood and the effects it has had on her life. One thing that I am so inspired by in her story is that despite her circumstances, she always had a determination to overcome and conquer anything that life threw at her even from a young age.
 
We talk drug and alcohol addiction in her loved ones, domestic violence, body issues, and more. I hope this episode encourages you and gives you hope to rise up out of whatever circumstance you may be facing. Let’s dive right in!

In this episode, I sit down and have a conversation with my new found friend, Halle Owens. Halle and I talk about her health and fitness journey through high school and college soccer, and she opens up about how the once healthy habits in her life took a turn for the worse and actually started to control her mind and thoughts every second of every day. Halle has broken through mental and physical barriers and I related with her in a completely different area of my OWN life even though the situation was completely different. Listen all the way to the end because the conversation. is. GOLD. 
Love you guys! Let’s dive right in.

In this episode, I talk with my friend Kim Hommel. We have a conversation about her journey through an incredibly tough season, when one of her daughters was fighting cancer. Kim gives such a great perspective and talks with such a grace and humbleness that is so inspiring and encouraging for any situation life may hand you.  We end up talking about ALL the mom things and I honestly could just sit at her feet all day and learn so much from her.
