Adoption & Beyond is a partner agency with BraveLove – a pro-adoption movement dedicated to changing the perception of adoption by acknowledging birth moms for their brave decision – and together we bring you some honest stories directly from birth parents.

Watch the video below for Leah’s story.

“I just had this deep knowing that she had a purpose in this world and that she was meant to be here.”

From moments of uncertainty to a place of clarity, Leah has turned her personal experiences into a powerful voice for birth moms and adoptees. By educating adoptive parents and sharing her journey, she shows how strength, hope, support, and love can shape a story—and inspire others along the way.

This is Leah’s story and why she chose adoption.

As a social worker who helped women with unexpected pregnancies, I saw that adoptions needed more heart and connection! I created Adoption & Beyond to create genuine connections between birth and adoptive families. Then life threw me the most beautiful plot twist – I became an adoptive mom myself! Talk about on-the-job training! For over 30 years, I've guided families through adoption with transparency, education, and ongoing support long after the "welcome home" balloons are gone. Feeling uncertain? I'm here to walk beside you on this amazing family-building journey.
