"I am who I am, and that's it. I like me. Me is okay."

That's Louise Allen -Sunday Times bestselling author, foster carer, and founder of Spark Sisterhood, a charity supporting girls leaving care.

A care leaver herself, Louise now spends her life giving other care-experienced girls what she never had: a nervous system training programme five years in the making, a charity that fills the support gap care leavers face, and a voice loud enough to challenge every assumption we make about "behaviour."

Her line for anyone working with young people in care: the truth will always do. You don't have to sugarcoat it -you just have to stay.
