79 | Jayne Schooler on Caring for Kids From Hard Places, Boundless Hope and Asking Good Questions

Jayne Schooler is a wife, mother, grandmother, advocate, writer, and voice of wisdom on trauma and its effects on our brains, bodies, and relationships. She and her late husband, David, are beloved, trusted experts on trauma-informed care, how homes should be for healing, and how to step into hard stories with foster and adoptive youth. Jayne is the author of multiple books around foster care, adoption, and trauma-informed parenting, and today she joins Chris and Sammy to discuss her newest book, Caring for Kids from Hard Places, which she co-authored with her beloved husband. 

In this episode, Jayne shares when she first began dreaming of becoming a writer and what initially sparked it, who her first book was dedicated to and why, and how 1977 was a  year that would forever change the trajectory of her and David’s lives and mission. Hear how their journey started as gathering information for their own home and children to being information they needed to share with everyone, why she believes if we don’t have hope, we don’t have anything, and why David’s thoughts on two chair universities and curious compassion will continue to be celebrated and live on.
