Foster Care Stories

I tell my real foster care story and reflect on how it shaped who I am today.

A Personal Foster Care Story

This episode offers a direct, personal account of foster care and the experiences that shaped my life.

A More Personal Way to Understand Foster Care

I share my story in a clear, reflective format, moving through the moments that influenced how I see family, identity, change, and belonging. The focus is not on presenting a perfect narrative, but on making space for the details and emotions that can be missed when foster care is discussed only in broad terms.

Listeners can expect an honest perspective shaped by memory, reflection, and lived experience. The episode connects what happened then with who I am today, offering context for the ways foster care can continue to affect a person over time.

My story, honestly

I’m Demus, the voice behind Not So Little Demus. Through personal vlogs and real conversations, I share my experience growing up in foster care, the moments that shaped me, and the person I am becoming now. I create an honest space for reflection, connection, and everyday life, including my work, my dog Reggie, and everything I’m building. No filters or pretending, just my story in my own words.
