    13: The Resilient Girl
    Jan 25 2022
    My friend Sherri Snider joins me to talk about growing up with a parent that suffered addiction, group homes, foster homes, running away, aging out of the system, becoming an adult, and becoming a mother.

    We also touch on her mother Diane Francis Who is missing and vanished while Sherri was in foster care. As promised I have provided links below that will take you to podcasts, YouTube, and blogs as well as Sherri’s Facebook page that she has set up for her mother.
