We can't wait for you to meet our guests on today's episode. Johnny and Tony have adopted not one but two beautiful children through A Guardian Angel Adoptions and truly embrace what it means to be adoptive parents. As a couple they have faced many hardships when it comes to starting their family but they have handled every curve ball and stressful moment with grace and resiliency.

Through all the chaos they became forever friends with our very own Katie Carr who has walked them through many challenges and been the very definition of support that A Guardian Angel Adoptions has come to be known for.

Today Johnny and Tony walk us through the many facets of adoption, including a very painful and stressful failed adoption. They have come to share their experience as well as their advice on adoption through the eyes of those who fully embrace the adoption world with open hearts.

Through the love, guidance, and support of our caring staff we advocate for expectant mothers seeking to give their unborn child a life and help them to connect with loving couples seeking to grow their family through adoption.

Yvonne is back this week and in today's episode she's ready to set the record straight.

In the Spring of this year (2025), a small online publication named AGAA as one of the offending adoption agencies in UT, allegedly guilty of many harmful practices exploiting birth mothers and their babies. The only problem with this article is none of the claims they made regarding A Guardian Angel Adoptions are true and if that wasn't bad enough they didn't call for a comment or rebuttal regarding the claims they were making to give AGAA a chance to refute the inaccuracies.

So instead of letting false narratives take hold, we decided to have Yvonne Johanson (A Guardian Angel Adoptions founder and Director) respond and react to the article directly.

As promised in today's episode we have provided all the links to the articles in question. Please use the following to read more:

Today we sit down with two incredible women, both Licensed Social Workers from the A Guardian Angel Adoption Agency, who walk alongside our birth moms during some of the most emotional, complex, and courageous moments of their lives. They aren't just professionals, they are compassionate listeners, fierce advocates, and steady hands in the storm.

In this episode we will talk about what it truly means to support birth moms, the moments that have stayed with them over the years, and how their work shapes both the lives of the women they serve as well as their own.

We are excited for you to get to know and love them like we do.

Welcome to our debut podcast episode! We've been wanting to start a podcast for a long time and we are thrilled you are here to support our first-ever conversation about adoption.

Today we are sitting down with A Guardian Angel Adoptions founder and Executive Director, Yvonne Johanson. Over 3 decades ago Yvonne was touched by a documentary about orphans in a third-world country—little did she know that this one moment would transform her own life and inspire her to change the community of adoption forever.

Join us as we hear about the valuable lessons Yvonne learned that not only changed the way she saw adoption but inspired her to create an agency whose focus is adoption through love, respect, and integrity.
