Welcome to My Revamped Website for 2025!

I’m thrilled to announce some exciting updates as I charge forward into 2025 with determination, boundaries, and purpose! My memoir is finally coming in 2025! After 15 years of writing, rewriting, and living the experiences that shaped my story, I’m proud to share that it will be titled:

Born in the Shadows, Living in the Light: My Adoptee Epiphanies – The Fight of My Life

This memoir is for every adoptee who has struggled to find their voice, for anyone grappling with the weight of identity, grief, and loss, and for those who long to understand the raw, unapologetic truth about the adoptee experience. It’s real. It’s vulnerable. And it’s me, holding nothing back. Be on the lookout for pre-sale announcements soon—you won’t want to miss it!

I’m embracing the power of boundaries and focusing my energy where it truly matters. My priority is completing my memoir, sharing meaningful adoptee-centered content, and connecting with you in ways that feel authentic and impactful.

I’m moving all my online interactions to The Real Adoptea Moxie on Substack, where the magic happens. These spaces are where we build connections, share truths, and hold space for one another.

2025 is the year my story comes full circle. My memoir, my community, and my purpose have never been clearer. I’m so grateful for the support you’ve given me along the way—it’s because of YOU that I can stand in my truth, unapologetically.

Follow me on Substack, stay tuned for pre-sale dates, and check out The Luna Lounge an exclusive chat space for adoptees. Thank you for being part of this journey—let’s do this!

I see you; I feel your pain for all the adoptees who feel forgotten, lost, and alone. Please don’t give up, and know you aren’t alone in feeling like you do.

If you are a USA adoptee experiencing a mental health crisis, please take immediate steps to ensure your safety. Contact a licensed mental health professional or text #988 for immediate assistance.

For adoptees around the globe, please reach out to The Mental Health Helplines: International Global Help Hotline Directory here.

I have compiled a list of recommended resources for adoptees and advocates. It can be found here: Recommended Resources for Adult Adoptees and Adoption Advocates.

Thank you for reading and for supporting me and my work.

Understanding is Love,
