Rediscovering Her Authentic Self and a Daughter Given Up After a Secret Teenage Pregnancy

Judy Liautaud is the author of two memoirs, the first titled “Sunlight on My Shadow: A Birth Mother’s Journey From Secrecy to Renewal,” and the second titled “South of Ordinary: A Moving Tale of Young Love and Self-Discovery.” She’s also the author and publisher of several children’s educational books through her publishing company City Creek Press, including “Times Tables the Fun Way,” “Addition the Fun Way,” and “Story Problems the Fun Way.” In our interview, we discuss Judy’s secret teen pregnancy, the pain and grief of giving up her baby for adoption, the healing and joy of finding and meeting her daughter decades later, and other ways in which she has healed and transformed throughout her life journey.
