Whatever It Takes With Tor Docherty Adoptive Parent & Chief Executive
Resilience. A word used a lot. A topic explored a lot less. Sometimes reduced to a buzzword. So where do we find the strength to keep on keeping on? How do we lean into our challenges and bounce back stronger? Tor shares her story and learnings about finding our inner resilience and overcoming the many challenges on the adoptive parents' journey. She also touches on her work supporting other LGBT+ adoptive & foster families. There's empowering truths by the bucketload. My favourite bombshell "Fear is harder to deal with than reality". Listen in and find yours. Be prepared to be inspired.

Here's a bit about New Family Social from their website.
"We're a UK charity, led by LGBT+ adopters and foster carers. New Family Social exists to help you decide if adoption or fostering is right for you and then support you on your journey to becoming parents and carers. We also work with agencies to develop their services to be as LGBT+ inclusive and friendly as possible. We aim to make the pool of available parents as wide as possible for the many children in care."
