Host Sandra Flach is a mom of 8 children, 5 through adoption—one kinship and 4 international. Her youngest 2 are teens diagnosed with a Fetal Alcohol Spectrum Disorder (FASD). With over 30 years of parenting experience and 20 plus years as an adoptive and kinship parent, she’s made mountains of mistakes and learned loads of lessons. She understands the difficult road of parenting children with trauma histories—and she is still in the trenches! The Adoption & Foster Care Journey is a podcast to encourage, educate, and equip you to care for children in crisis through adoption, foster care, and kinship care. We aim to support adoptive and foster families by sharing encouraging real-life stories and equipping them with modern-day research and parenting techniques.

“For I am convinced that neither death nor life, neither angels nor demons, neither the present nor the future, nor any powers, neither height nor depth, nor anything else in all creation, will be able to separate us from the love of God that is in Christ Jesus our Lord.” Romans 8:38-39
Children suffering from childhood trauma experience big feelings. They need help learning how to appropriately express big emotions. Asking for help and trusting other people require a huge amount of courage. Kids healing from difficult life experiences need a safe space for conversations about complex thoughts and feelings. Riley the Brave creates that safe space.
Jessica Sinarski is the author of Riley the Brave—a book about a little bear with big feelings. On this week’s episode of our Orphans No More podcast, host Sandra Flach talks with Jessica about equipping parents and professionals to be healers for hurting children.
Listen in to their conversation as Jessica shares about Riley the Brave and other Brave Brains resources.
