    This is beautiful!! Thank you so much for the effort you put into this TED Talk. I heard your interviews about blocked care on the Empowered Parent Podcast and I’m really glad I watched your TED talk, too. I don’t have any foster or adopted children, but such families are dear to my heart and I try to employ TBRI and trauma-informed care within our family, children and teen ministries at church.
    Thank you and bless you!!
