Connections turned Friendships

Founded by:

Molly E. Mclaurin

A space for you to connect, be transformed, and empowered.

Super shy, and nervous about life, Molly was and she is constantly renewed, and transforming. Molly is a twin, an adoptee, a friend to many, a mommy, a wife to Trent <3, a Tatie, a Haitian gal, a plumeria lover, and a lover of Chichewa, with my first and only tattoo in that beautiful language. No one can ever believe the shy girl has become powerful, but yes it is true. Monarch Connections transformed her into a more confident people gatherer, even helping her find her voice.

Ongoing Connections

  • Adoptee Talk - a welcoming community for adult adoptees to connect and grow
  • Hear Her - a safe space for people who identify as women to discuss life, self-esteem, shame, faith and other life themes via large online events and book clubs.

We are a company excited to explore different human identities, including and not limited to racial identities, womanhood, parenting, whiteness, adoptee centered narratives, supporting and educating black and white adoptive parents, and more.
