🎙️ Unmasking the Power of HOPE in a Bag with Stacie Malone of Layne’s Luggage
🎧 Episode Summary:
Welcome back to Unmasking the Heart for Change, where we dive into the real stories behind transformation—one heart-to-heart at a time. In this episode, host Tammy Winstead sits down with nonprofit founder and foster care advocate Stacie Malone, the heart behind Layne’s Luggage, a grassroots movement delivering dignity, comfort, and hope to children in foster care.
What began as a heartbreaking moment in a DHS office turned into a ripple effect of compassion—one travel bag at a time. You’ll hear how Stacie’s personal journey as a foster parent led to a mission of equipping children with more than just luggage: she’s packing purpose, encouragement, and visibility into every bag.
Together, we talk about the reality of the foster care system, the importance of community-driven support, and the dream of expanding Layne’s Luggage from a local initiative to a full-blown legacy. This episode is raw, powerful, and a reminder that the smallest gestures—like offering a real bag—can speak the loudest in a child’s life.
