Hi, I’m Victoria Muse—an adoptee, mom to DonorBorn kids, and your guide to navigating family by choice. I am also a therapist, consultant, and advocate passionate about the complexities of family, identity, and belonging.

With a Master’s degree in Marriage and Family Therapy and over 15 years of experience working with foster care systems and providing therapy for families in need, I’ve dedicated my career to supporting individuals navigating nontraditional family structures.

My connection to this work is deeply personal. As both an adoptee and a parent of donor-conceived twins, I understand firsthand the emotional layers of identity, disclosure, and what it means to build a family through unconventional paths. Through this blog, I share professional insights, personal experiences, and evidence-based guidance to help donor-conceived individuals, parents by choice, and advocates make informed and compassionate decisions.

Here, you’ll find discussions on ethical donor conception, best practices for disclosure, the emotional well-being of donor-conceived children, and the evolving conversations around reproductive rights. Whether you're a parent seeking support, an adult searching for identity, or an advocate pushing for change, this space is for you.

Let’s navigate this journey together—with honesty, empathy, and a commitment to transparency. Your story matters, and you’re not alone.
