Lindsey Redfern is an awesome lady. I first met this beautiful lady in real life at the adoption retreat last year. She made it through the storm of two boys who were sick. (what a trooper.) Then a long car ride, some adoption conferences, and a few late nights at The R House later. She became one of my peeps. Shes got a laugh that is absolutely contagious and she is known for being Heavy on the Bevvy.
Lindsey Redfern is a wife and a mom. She and her husband have two boys through the miracle of adoption and they enjoy open adoptions with each of their birth families. Lindsey is an avid adoption, infertility and Mommy Blogger at the r house. She and her husband run the adoption consulting firm, The R House Adoption Consultants. She is also a busy stay-at-home mom who runs The R House Couture an adoption themed hand-stamped jewelry business with her two best friends and is the Community Manager of the Webby award-winning podcast MommyCast. In addition to being interviewed by countless blogs, podcasts, magazines and TV shows, Lindsey has also worked as the Community Manager for Adoption Voices helping the community launch, has served as the Community Outreach Chair for her local Families Supporting Adoption (FSA) chapter, served on the National Board for FSA while running the National FSA Blog and covering the Southeast Region. She is an active member of the Utah Adoption Council (UAC).
