On this episode, we welcome the very first birthmother to the show! We visit with Monika – as she shares her heart through her story and insights about being a birthmother in an open adoption. She has been quoted in the new book “The Open-Hearted Way to Open Adoption” by Lori Holden and has begun working on her own book about open adoption. I really enjoyed this interview – and I know you will too – because listening to Monika’s unique story gives us an opportunity to learn more about open adoption.  What you’ll learn about in this episode: * How Monika found out she is a mother AFTER her baby was born. * How Monika chose the adoptive parents for her baby girl. * What her open adoption relationship is like with her daughter and the adoptive parents. * When and why you should use the term ‘birthmother’. * AND MUCH MORE!  Here the links that were mentioned in this episode: * Birthmombuds.com – provides peer counseling, support, encouragement, and friendship to birthmoms as well as pregnant women considering adoption. * buds.blogspot.com/">Birth Mom Buds Blog * Lavenderluz.com – a blog by Lori Holden, author of the book The Open-Hearted Way to Open Adoption.
