Mind Your Thoughts: Recent Episodes
CPositivista
The (Mind Your Thoughts) podcast, is specifically for care experienced young people (careleavers) and children in care. This platform is a safe space for anyone who has care experience to share their stories and their success with the world. Coming from a care background myself, I believe that it is important to share success stories about children in care rather than just the negative stories. I am a firm believer in turning pain into positivity, hence why I call myself CPositivista, because I prefer to view life from a positive perspective because negativity has never served me.

If you are a careleaver or a looked after child in foster care or living in children's home, I want you to know that I get you, I may not have had the same experiences as yourself, however, I understand and can relate to being in care and not wanting anyone to know about it, and I can relate to sitting in lac reviews and listening to social workers and foster parents making decisions about my future.
