What if the hardest “yes” of your life became the foundation of your calling? In this emotional and empowering episode of The School of Influence, host Devin Schubert (The Man in Orange) sits down with Sydney Curtin—speaker, author, multi-business owner, and advocate for adoption reform. Sydney’s journey from heartbreak to healing began when she made the courageous choice to place her daughter for adoption. What followed wasn’t easy—loss, grief, and the painful unraveling of promises—but through faith, forgiveness, and purpose, Sydney found her voice and her mission.
Today, she’s leading the charge for ethical adoption reform, mentoring women through healing, and showing the world that no label can define you outside of Christ. If you’ve ever questioned whether your story still matters, this conversation will remind you—it absolutely does.
