    Special Guest - Shasta Reeves (Adoptive Mom)

    We have an incredible chat today with Shasta Reeves, who is an adoptive mom. She is also the founder of The Every Way Mama Podcast. Here is a bit about Shasta: "When I was waiting to adopt my son, Gunner, I became a podcast addict. Listening to stories about motherhood and how it came to families via adoption was such a great escape from the adoption wait for me. Motherhood has come to me through so many ways. Marriage, miscarriage, infertility treatments, adoption and a surprise pregnancy that was heaven sent. I wanted a podcast that would showcase that there is no one way to become a mother, to be a mother or to mother. Everyone has a story and it is my honor that my show could be a way to tell yours."
