The Adoption Wise Podcast
You're a good parent doing good work®
If you're an adoptive parent looking for hope, practical tools, and friends who understand, this podcast is for you!
Between the two of us, we represent all three parts of the adoption triad. We've been around the block a couple times with kids by birth, adoption, and foster care. And lived to tell about it.
Don't worry. We get it. And we're here for you.
Gain confidence in your parenting and hope for your family's future.
The topics are relevant to my family and full of wisdom from mothers who have walked this path before me.

Any time I listen to Lisa and Melissa, I feel like I'm chatting with a couple friends.

Adoptee and Adoptive Mom
Patrick and I are parents to six by both birth and adoption (ages 16-25). Our open-door policy has blessed us with lots of honorary family members along the way. As an Enneagram Coach, Safe and Sound Practitioner, and Cultivate Connection facilitator, I love helping families laugh more and yell less. I hate cleaning and love extra crispy french fries.
