Services
Supporting individuals and families in navigating their story, and helping professionals better understand adoption as a lived experience and, for some, an added lens through which they may see themselves, their relationships, and the world around them. I offer this through coaching, workshops, storytelling, and tools rooted in mindset, reflection, and the power of resilience.
Adoption Coaching
As an adoption coach, I work with women who are already on their adoption journey, whether as adoptive parents, birth parents, adoptees, or those connected to adoption in a meaningful way. My coaching provides a space to explore your story with fresh perspective, renewed confidence, and clarity as you navigate this season of life. This coaching is about moving forward with confidence, peace, and a deep trust in your unique journey. If you’re feeling called to explore your story with a fresh lens, let’s talk.
Speaking Engagements
As an author and entrepreneur, I’m passionate about highlighting what’s going right in adoption and creating meaningful connections at home, work, and school. Through my uplifting stories and insights, I empower adoptive families, birth parents, adoptees, and advocates to explore adoption in a positive, mainstream light. Whether you’re hosting a conference, community event, or workshop, my message is designed to inspire, educate, and connect. Interested in having me speak at your event?
Book Readings
I love sharing my book, Brianna’s Brave Day at School, with young readers and creating meaningful conversations about adoption in a way that feels positive, relatable, and empowering. I’m available for book readings at classrooms, libraries, bookstores, and events, where I engage children with an interactive reading, discussion, and activities that celebrate bravery, belonging, and understanding. Whether you’re an educator, librarian, or event organizer, I’d love to bring this story to your community. Interested in scheduling a reading? Let’s connect!
"Fran has been my go-to person to discuss some of the most important issues in my life for almost 25 years. When my kids were born, she was always there to help coach me through some difficult parenting moments. She advised me during my teenage daughter’s 4-year struggle with depression, as well as my son’s problems picking a college. She is an amazing listener and offers thoughtful advice. She brings her own spiritual journey, her parenting experiences, and her own beautiful life story to the table when she counsels people. Whether you have adoption in your story or not, Fran is a great resource and Coach to engage with for your next parenting workshop or event or at any time on your parenting journey. Everyone needs a Fran."
