ADRIAN: ON PLACING YOUR CHILD FOR ADOPTION + VULNERABILITY + SEASONS OF HEALING
This just might be one of my favorite Real Mom episodes to date. Adrian Collins has titles that most of us may have never even heard of, let alone, wear. As a bio mom, birth mom, adoptive mom, and re-adoptive mom, Adrian just speaks with so much wisdom as she shares her story because she’s sharing from so many lived perspectives at the same time. She just jumps in with vulnerability and encourages us to be vulnerable, as well. Her story of loss and brokenness and beauty reminds us all that God is the one writing our stories and His plan is always beautiful.
The intro song, The Source, is brought to you by one of the best new worship bands out there, The Evidence. Yes, the frontman is my (talented, brilliant, adorable, Jesus-loving) cousin. No, that's not why I love them.

Adrian shares that she’s currently watching Season 1 Dead to Me…and I promised not to drop any spoilers as I just finished Season 2.
Adrian’s teenage son keeps her “with it” by building her listening playlists and her current listen is Tyler Ward.
