Your heart and mind are ready to embrace adoption…
But where do you even begin?
As an adoption consultant and adoptive mom who’s been where you are, I’ll guide you step by step through everything you need to know about the domestic infant adoption journey, from home study to finalization...
​
...and do it all at your own pace, with a supportive community behind you.
​
Already know this is where you’re meant to be?
INTRODUCING
A step-by-step guide to domestic adoption for hopeful individuals and families who are sick and tired of waiting forever. It’s the first and only self-paced, adoption consultant-led program that shows you exactly how to navigate the domestic adoption process, from home study to finalization.
With my proven (pinky swear) 4-step Adoption Roadmapâ„ , you’ll be able to:
SAVE TIME YOU CAN’T MAKE UP
You’re done waiting anymore than you need to. Save yourself weeks or months of tedious legwork and inaccurate research. We help people navigate the domestic adoption world day in and day out. Every single thing you need to know is right here in one place.
SAVE MONEY
I’m a firm believer that every little bit counts … and as an adoptive mom, I’ve experienced the financial strain of adoption first-hand. With this program, you’ll get the same resources and information I give my private clients, for a fraction of the cost.
GO AT YOUR OWN PACE
With this self-paced program, you’ll never have to worry about being given a deadline, making time for a meeting or having someone like me breathe down your neck to complete your next assignment.
ACCESS THE COURSE ANYTIME, ANYWHERE
Log in or out anytime you want. Listen to each recording as many times as it takes to sink in. And with lifetime access, you can revisit this program whenever you want (like when you’re ready to adopt baby #2!).
GAIN & KEEP MOMENTUM
My expectation in working with you is that you will put together an awesome profile using my proven model and that you will be working with agencies that are the right fit for you and your family. With that in mind, I hope you will be able to adopt your baby in less than a year. Since COVID, wait times have been longer as there are more hopeful families wanting to adopt and fewer expectant moms making an adoption plan. So hang in there. It may be a longer journey, but we hope not!
GET EXPERT GUIDANCE & SUPPORT
Our team and members of our amazing community have been where you are, and we know how to get you where you’re going. You will have access to bi-weekly Zoom Coaching Calls with RG Adoption Founder & CEO to answer any burning questions.
KEEP YOUR PERSONAL BUSINESS PERSONAL
Maybe having the world know everything about your personal business is just not your jam. Let’s be honest, this adoption journey is vulnerable enough. By taking an online course, you don’t have to worry about one more person calling and asking you what’s going on in your life because you haven’t returned their last three calls. Some people like their privacy and I completely get it if you’re one of them. Sometimes less is more.
MOVE FORWARD WITH THAT LAST IVF CYCLE
Many of my private clients wonder if they can undergo fertility treatments while beginning the adoption journey. If you feel like you can handle both, then why not? The benefit of getting started now is you won’t lose more precious time

This Virtual Adoption Consultant Experience consists of 4 Steps PLUS a bonus Mindset Step that I recommend you complete first. Each component is designed to hold your hand through every step of the process and break things down into manageable chunks, so you can start moving your adoption journey forward today.
BONUS STEP: DECLARING YOUR MINDSET
This is the stuff that's not written down anywhere else - the things that only my team's experience can teach you. Few adoption experts focus on this essential component of the adoption process. However, in my opinion, mindset is one of the most important elements of the journey. I'm a firm believer in the power of positive thinking and visualization, in addition to taking action. You can't always control what happens to you, but you can absolutely control how you react and respond to these things.
During this special training, I'll guide you through various exercises to help you get clarity on the adoption situation that's right for your family, touch upon challenges you may encounter along the way, and help you develop the mindset you need to embrace in order to move forward without letting anything get in your way.
Step 1: Demystifying Adoption
​
Before you jump into this unknown world of adoption. Ill make sure you have a really good understanding of the landscape of the adoption journey. From home study to finalization and beyond, Ill guide you through the ins and outs of the process. By the end of this module, you'll see the path to adoption clearly and have the knowledge and resources you need to begin getting cleared and legally approved to adopt.
​
We'll dive into:
-
Understanding the domestic adoption, step by step by step
-
Dispelling common myths around birth moms and open adoption
-
Understanding potential risks (failed adoption statistics, revocation periods, birth parent warning signs that most agencies won't talk about)
-
How to choose the right home study agency (plus 4 questions to ask them )
-
How to be you agencies' best client
-
Preparing for the home study process, from preparation and in-home visit to completion
STEP 2: CREATING YOUR STORYBOOK
It just takes on expectant mother to connect with you. We'll help give her something to connect with. Together with our profile designer, we'll curate a compelling unmistakably you adoption profile that stands out and helps the right expectant mom feel, without question, that you're the perfect parent for her baby.
​
By the end of this step, you'll have:
-
Clarity on what to include on every single page of you adoption profile
-
Inspiration from previous families who have successfully adopted
-
A story that sparks emotion and gives the right birth mom a glimpse into your life, so she can see her baby in it
-
The right words on every page
-
The perfect pictures on each page
-
A complete, professionally created storybook
​
I cannot stress enough how important it is that you do this right. Your storybook is the sole tool agencies use for an expectant mother to choose who she wants to parent her child.
​
Important note about timing: Because your home study is typically (depending on where you adopt from) only good for one year, we don't want you to waste any time (or money). We want your home study process and your storybook creation process to be happening simultaneously. That way, as soon as your home study is complete, your storybook is ready to be seen by as many expectant moms as possible!
STEP 3: BUILDING YOUR AGENCY PORTFOLIO
​
More often than not, working with a variety of agencies leads to a faster match, Just as a financial planner would recommend that you "diversify" your investments, I recommend that you diversify your agency selection. So instead of spending $20,000 on one agency, why not spend $2,000 or $3,000 on 3 or 4 to increase your chances? The key is finding reputable agencies with lower upfront fees. We'll put the power of our extensive agency network to work for you to make sure more birth moms get to see your amazing adoption profile.
​
During this step, we will:
-
Educate you on exactly how agencies work
-
Provide you with a list of vetted and ethical adoption agencies from across the country; all agencies we recommend fir our criteria of lower upfront fees and are in states with more favorable adoption laws (meaning birth mom can sign over her parental rights within 12-72 hours)
-
Help you understand how to be your agency's best client so you can stay top of mind with them
​
Important note: we are not compensated by agencies in any way. We select agencies solely based on their reputation, experience, and our relationship with them.
STEP 4: CHAMPION & SUPPORT
​
It helps to have the support of someone who knows exactly what you're going through, not just legally, but mentally and emotionally. Because we see situations every single day, we can help you understand what questions to ask and what to look for when you're presented with a potential adoption situation.
You'll receive:
-
A list of questions to ask when you're presented with a potential match situation to make sure you're fully aware and understanding of everything involved
-
Guided preparation on meeting your baby at the hospital (how to prepare to bring baby home)
-
A list of resources for ongoing support as an adoptive family after you bring your baby home

We signed up for The Adoption Roadmap Academy in October of 2020 and were matched 2 months later.
Being able to go through it at your own pace but still have someone to help push you along and hold you accountable was so great.
We had started the journey so long ago (5 years to be exact), I was tired of waiting. I reached out to RG Adoption Consulting and joined their Adoption Roadmap Academyâ„ .
"We felt seen and heard throughout our journey. We were supported, checked on, and were able to ask questions beyond the course when needed."
“The wait is hard, but having that little push to keep things moving versus letting things kind of sit there was really helpful.”
“This course gave us a sense of hope and helped us feel more optimistic and proactive in finding a match and growing our family. We would not have found the most amazing little girl that is now a part of our family without The Adoption Roadmap Academy."
