November is National Adoption Month, but adoptee (those who are adopted) voices are often missing from the conversation. We're talking about Speaking Life & Adoption with Iris Bryant, an adoptee and adoption advocate! Her adoption journey as well as her gifts as a writer, speaker, educator, and podcast host have created space for her to help women with hidden hurts find purpose on the other side of pain.
Iris Peterson Bryant and her husband are the parents of four children and have one adorable grandchild. She has served as an educator in the public schools of North Carolina since 1998.
In addition to serving as the chief encouragement officer for those who follow her on social media. She also co-authored the book, How I Got Over, with four other inspiring women. She loves coffee, milk chocolate, and watching the sunrise—preferably at the beach!
She firmly believes God’s promise in Romans 8:28, and she desires to help others believe and apply that truth to their lives. She desires to help women maximize each moment and season they encounter and show them God doesn’t waste any of our experiences--whether good or bad.
Iris and her husband, David, reside in eastern North Carolina. Connect with Iris on Facebook and Instagram @irispbryant, her website irispbryant.com, and via email at iris@irispbryant.com.
Join the conversation as she shares her adoptee experience and valuable insight about how we can speak life to those impacted by adoption. Are you ready to speak life? Let's get started!
