That’s What SHE Said with Jillian Lauren

July 3, 2020

Kristen Howerton and Jillian Lauren

I'm talking adoption with my fellow adoptive mom (and adoptee herself) Jillian Lauren. We've been friends for a long time and both adopted internationally and also from foster care. We get a little misty reading parts of our memoirs about bringing our boys home, and talk through what we've learned about love (and about ourselves) from the experience. You can find Jillian's book Everything You Ever Wanted here. And my book Rage Against the Minivan here. https://youtu.be/tkhYvLVhzpE . . .
