44. A Journey Through Foster Care with Embo Tshimanga

Embo Tshimanga grew up in and out of foster care, going in at age 7 and leaving upon graduation at 17. Her life was riddled with inconsistencies and she lived in fear of what would happen next. She attended over 25 schools and lived in over 25 homes including homeless shelters, group homes and in cars.

But thankfully the circle of people around her told her the truth of who she was and not just the truth her circumstances told her. That she is worth everything, not worthless. That she has a place in this world, not disposable. That she is deeply loved and worthy of love, not unlovable.

Today she is in college, and has the opportunity to speak life into children in foster care in the DFW area through DFW Angels.
