Kayden, 21 years old, CA

Kayden entered the foster care system alongside her sister after experiencing abuse. This difficult chapter in their lives strengthened their bond and resilience. Navigating uncertainty taught Kayden valuable lessons in compassion, responsibility, and perseverance. Today, she works full-time as a nurse, dedicating her life to caring for others with the patience and empathy shaped by her past. Although her job demands long hours, she finds balance and peace by visiting the beach, where the ocean helps her unwind and reflect. Kayden also cherishes her time with her Yorkie, whose playful energy and loyalty bring her comfort, joy, and a sense of home that she has worked hard to build.
