This episode features Alex and Joel Ellis, a couple who jumped into foster parent training even before they jumped into marriage. They've been licensed foster parents in the Nashville, TN area for 3 years. They juggle a busy schedule of working full-time, podcasting, Alex's part-time college schedule, managing rental properties, and launching a startup retail business. But their most important and rewarding job is as parents to their 1 1/2-year-old adopted son, Brooks, and their foster daughter who has been with them for almost a year.
You can learn more about Alex and Joel's fostering and parenting journey on their podcast Barely Braided, available on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, and most other podcast platforms.
