Raising Resilient Adoptees With Sheila Chester - Adoptive Mom Wife, Non-Toxic Momma, Child Adoption Advocate, Natural Health Coach
from Thriving Adoptees - Let's Thrive · host Simon Benn
Here's an excerpt from Sheila's website:"My story starts with my husband and I’s journey to become parents in 2008. I grew up in a seemingly uncomplicated and non-dramatic country home in the plains of South Dakota where struggles were few and far between. Not until this moment in my life had I experienced a setback of this magnitude.Going through infertility, and subsequently adoption, pushed me beyond limits I didn’t know I had. I learned more about myself than I could have possibly imagined. I learned that my lifelong anxiety may have been depression the whole time, causing more problems along the way. I now look at this ongoing experience as the gifts of infertility.I share the process of fertility treatments, the adoption process, becoming a mother, and the challenge of staying married in the middle of it all. I share our personal heartaches and miracles that continue to this day.On this site I share authentically and unapologetically, my journey with my biggest nemesis, my thoughts about how things were supposed to be.Reality wins big."More at https://www.sheilakchester.com/https://www.linkedin.com/in/essentiallyathome/https://twitter.com/sheilakchester?lang=enhttps://www.instagram.com/sheilakchester/?hl=en-gb Guests and the host are not (unless mentioned) licensed pscyho-therapists and speak from their own opinion only.
