Turning Fears Into Next Steps: April & Jordan Share Their Adoption Experiences in Overcoming Fear [S8E8]

Adoption Fears?? Yep, we have all had them. We recognize adoption is a big, life changing process to start. There are so many questions and unknowns. It can feel overwhelming.

In this episode, host April Fallon and co-host Jordan Moreno explore the common fears of starting the adoption journey and how it is normal to feel this way.

The two adoptive moms share their personal experiences with financial concerns, initial hesitations about open adoption, and the fear of birth mothers changing their minds.

Don’t think this episode is just for moms!! They also talk about the important role the husbands played in the process and how being on a team has a pivotal role in placement.

Whether you're just beginning to explore adoption or are already on your path, you'll find the support and encouragement you need to move forward with confidence. ADOPTION NOW wants to help you move beyond your fears and into trusting God’s calling as you take the next step!
