Love Grows Here

What's This Podcast
About?

Every family has a beginning. Every parent has a story. Love Grows Here is an intimate storytelling podcast about the many ways people become parents and build families. Hosted by Kevin Gerdes, each episode gives one person the space to share their journey in their own words, including the turning points, uncertainties, decisions, and unexpected moments that changed everything. Through honest, long-form conversations, the podcast explores foster care, foster-to-adopt, adoption, surrogacy, queer parenting, single parenting, and other paths to parenthood. These are not sound bites or perfect stories. They are deeply personal accounts of love, identity, belonging, and what it truly means to show up for a family. Whether you are a parent, hope to become one, or simply believe every family's story deserves to be heard, you are welcome here. Love Grows Here. Because there is more than one way to become a family.
