I run Thriving Adoptees, a podcast with over 94,000 downloads where adoptees share what they've learned to help others navigate their own journeys. I speak and train on adoption too. My story: adopted at 5 weeks old, unbothered by it for decades, until I hit 40 and discovered my childhood teddy bear was a gift from my birth mother. That cracked something open. What followed was a long process of healing that eventually became a mission. Ask me about the adoptee experience, healing later in life, and what I've learned from interviewing adoptees on Thriving Adoptees.
