In this episode of Beyond the Home Study, hosts Lora Rose and Abbey sit down with author and adoptive mom Kristin Hill Taylor, who shares her three very different adoption stories. While agencies were involved, each connection to her children’s birth moms came through unique personal relationships — a family friend, a lawyer, and even her doctor. Kristin reflects on how these experiences shaped her perspective on adoption and ultimately inspired her writing career. She also opens up about open adoption, navigating work and family, and the importance of community support throughout the journey.
