You aren't alone in your struggles. Our soul purpose on this earth is to share our stories, to help you, or open your eyes to the world around you. We know what it is like to feel misunderstood. We are here! Let's find inspiration from each other and live a good life!
Today we discuss how taking time away to renew and reflect is important for our well-being. We must remember to take the time consistently instead of just when we need it. We have to remind ourselves not to feel guilty about it and to treat the time as a way to make ourselves better! The benefit is that when we are helping ourselves, we are also helping the others around us.
In this episode, we (Jessica and Melinda) discuss life after placing our babies. We share the need for education and support for birthmothers. There is such beauty in this sometimes heartbreaking decision. Finding the joy comes when you know your why. We made the choice because we wanted the best for our babies - we LOVE them.
This is part one of our discussion about each of our adoption processes. We talk about why we chose adoption for our babies, the stigma attached to birth moms, and the process we went through.
As a woman, friendships can be a challenge to create, build and maintain. We will share how we "discovered" each other and then talk about ways to make, keep and work through "tough" stuff in adult friendships.
We are such amazing souls, but why do we clean when we are upset? Sometimes we just have to communicate.
Remember what ever choice you make- It is your life, your story!
Each of our adoption stories are different, our feelings and experiences are different but the struggle is real.
The process of adoption is something that no one can prepare you for. While you are giving someone something that they have prayed about they are having their heart filled while your heart is being ripped out. But knowing you providing a better life for your child can be rewarding through the grief. You are not along in your struggle.
