Passion Stories with Free To Flourish
Welcome to the Passion Stories Podcast, a conversational series that features people who have made career transitions into work they feel fulfilled with, or started their own passion business.
We talk about when they decided to make the change, why they do the work they do, what helped them overcome obstacles with the transition, and any tips that they would give to others sitting on the idea of making these big changes.
People from the environmental, social change, health and wellness, and creative industries come on to share their story in hopes to inspire others to go after their own professional dreams.

Trauma Informed Care Hair Mentor: Terria Roushun
Terria is a Trauma Informed Care Hair Mentor where she teaches and helps transracial adoptive and foster parents how to take care of their black child's hair. In this episode Terria talks about how she left her corporate job when she knew she wanted to pivot into something she was passionate about: working with hair. And then how she took it one step further and brought purpose and meaning into the business she has now, transforming lives with parents who would otherwise be disconnected from their child's black culture and missing out on an opportunity to bond with their child through hair.
