    Adoption - It Really is About Love!

    I loved sharing this experience of Shari and the adoption of her son.

    I also love that she took this experience and created a children's book

    to help adopted children better understand

    their journey to their "forever family"

    Adoption is a beautiful partnership between two mother's hearts

    Adoption is a beautiful partnership between two mother's hearts

    Giving the gift of life is sometimes 

    a partnership between two mother hearts

    —a birth mother yearning for a loving home for the child in her womb 

    and another mother eagerly awaiting the child she has “grown” within her heart. 

    I hope you enjoy Judith’s story of the adoption of her second son as much as I did.

    The Gift Best Given - Adoption Series

    The Gift Best Given - Adoption Series

    I loved being able to interview Edward who searched for his adoptive mother when he was 68 years old.

    The information that he found led him on a journey that was eye opening and led to a greater appreciation for mothers and birth.

    The Gift Best Given is his memoir that he wrote after years of delving into discovering his birth mother’s experience.

    Sadly he started his search a few years after she passed away.
    But with DNA testing, Google and many miracles leading the way, he was able to learn so much!

    Please sit back and enjoy this inspirational interview that kicks off our adoption series.

Enjoy Birth ,

Inspiring podcast for expecting moms

I love how this podcast incorporates the spiritual aspect of pregnancy and birth. Pregnancy and birth are not just physical events, there’s a lot of spiritual parts to them and when we have the eyes to see that can encourage us and lift us up.
