I Am That Bitch Podcast

Open Adoption, Broken Promises & Fighting for Her Daughter | Sydney Curtin


Listen Later

Season 3 is officially here, and we are not easing into it.

In this powerful first episode of I Am That Bitch, Val sits down with serial entrepreneur, author, and adoption reform advocate Sydney Curtin — and this conversation goes deep.

At 20 years old, Sydney made the heartbreaking decision to place her daughter in an open adoption. There were promises. There were agreements. There were words spoken in a hospital room that were supposed to mean something.

Less than five years later, those promises were broken. Contact was cut. Her daughter was moved out of the country.

What followed wasn’t silence.

It was a fight.

In this episode, Sydney shares:
• The truth about open adoption agreements
• How her daughter was removed from her life
• The gaslighting that followed
• Why she’s now working to change adoption laws across the U.S.
• How faith carried her through unimaginable grief
• And what every “first mom” needs to hear before making this decision

This isn’t a victim story.
It’s a story about turning pain into purpose.
It’s about accountability.
It’s about fighting for your child even when you can’t hold them.

If you’ve ever questioned your worth…
If you’ve ever felt silenced…
If you’ve ever had to trust God when it made no sense…

This episode is for you.
