Author Information

Valerie Marble is a thirty-something author living in a small town in Midwest Kansas with her husband, Bryce. Initially envisioning a straightforward life of marriage and biological children, Valerie's journey took a transformative turn towards adoption, leading her to embrace personal development and journaling. As a proud mother of three through adoption-Harlan, Jhett, and Lennyn-she understands the challenges of seeking control in an unpredictable journey. Valerie owns A Step Ahead Adoption Services, a consulting company dedicated to guiding prospective adoptive parents through the adoption process. When she's not wrangling her kids, you'll likely find Valerie in the kitchen cooking or planning thoughtful gatherings; Valerie has a gift for making others feel loved, valued, and celebrated. Her book, Living Through the Journey, is a reflection of that - it offers a heartfelt and practical look into the lessons, challenges, and triumphs of her unique path to motherhood. Drawing from her personal journey and experiences of guiding adoptive families, the book also answers common questions asked by hopeful adoptive parents, making it both an emotional memoir and a valuable resource.
