This show of November 17th was to be one about surrogacy. I have an amazing interview with a surrogate that not only had 3 children of her own, but also birthed twins for one couple and a baby girl for another! Her name is Colleen Meyers, and she is the quintessential example of one woman helping other women to become mothers. Her story is fabulous.

However, I decided to keep in the spirit and theme of adoption for this show, due to the fact that November is National Adoption Month. Adoption is a beautiful thing, and I'm thrilled that there is a month that takes notice and celebrates it.

On December 1st we will air our show on surrogacy, and you won't want to miss it! But we have another woman who is beyond wonderful that is sharing her story on this, our 2nd show, of The Reproductive Challenged Woman.

My guest is one of many women who successfully adopted from the same facilitating agency that I used, A Labor of Love Adoptions, who is also my founding premium sponsor. I had gotten an e-mail from Tina Tyra of A Labor of Love Adoptions, telling me an unbelievable story about a woman who had faced more challenges than I could ever imagine any one human being facing.

When I first spoke with her on the phone, I was in tears at the end of our conversation. Tears of joy, but also tears of compassion, for no one should ever have to jump the myriad hurdles that this woman did.

Her name is Kristy, and though she endured much sadness throughout her journey, her story has an incredibly happy ending! I thank her for being on my show, and I thank her for effecting me so deeply.

Kristy is the example I will look to whenever I feel overwhelmed. For if I think of her, and remember her strength, it will inspire me to get back on my feet and move forward, as she had done...with grace and courage. She is a sweetheart, and a pure joy to talk with. I am honored to have gotten to know her.
