Adoptees On

To commemorate Adoptee Remembrance Day 2022, we recorded a live event with the Adoptee Voices writing groups and ten adoptee writers who are sharing a collection of their poetry and prose with us. #AdopteesOn #ARD2022 #AdopteeVoices traffic.libsyn.com/adopteeson/AO_…

Thank you so much for having me as a guest! I so appreciate your advocacy in highlighting the importance of adoptee voices! Big love to you both @LouiseBrowne_LA and @SarahLReinhardt

@CCMFeltHats Thanks friend!

Launched on this day in 2016… Congratulations on 7 years celebrating & elevating #adopteevoices! ✨🎙️✨ @adopteeson #podcast

@thesusanito @nicolesjchung @adopteecrossing We should ask our author friends if they read the reviews! I need to stop. I can’t take it. 💔💔

@adopteeson @nicolesjchung @adopteecrossing A hurtful review? Oh noooo I’m so sorry. I know that never feels good (bracing myself).

Just listened to @nicolesjchung on @adopteeson and it was so good, so moving. One benefit to a long car ride. Also listened to @adopteecrossing with Yomi — so much to think about. I really appreciate adoptee podcasts.

@nicoleschung is back! Nicole’s new memoir, A Living Remedy, is a heartbreaking pilgrimage through grief in losing her adoptive parents. Nicole has been one of the stalwart leaders in our community and you’ll know why when you listen. #AdopteesOn traffic.libsyn.com/adopteeson/E25…

Sarah Myer, author of the forthcoming graphic memoir, Monstrous (@smyercomics) and I talk about their love of comics, anime, and cosplay and how it lead them to explore their own identity as a Korean adoptee and comic artist. #AdopteesOn traffic.libsyn.com/adopteeson/257…

We're speaking with @kiraomans today: actor, audiobook narrator, and adoptee advocate! We talk about what it’s like to audition as an adoptee and to embody a new character and identity, as well as adoptee representation in Hollywood. #AdopteesOn traffic.libsyn.com/adopteeson/E25…

We are thrilled to talk with @saudsleypoe today! We talk through several poems in her debut collection, Landlock X, and Sarah shares about how a reunion with genetic family in Korea only opened up more questions for her. #AdopteesOn #AdopteeVoices traffic.libsyn.com/adopteeson/AO_…

Dr. Chaitra talks with us about adoptee superpowers. We don't express gratitude for a traumatic experience, but seek to understand common traits we hold and how to use them to our advantage. We talk about perfectionism, empathy, people-pleasing and more. traffic.libsyn.com/adopteeson/E25…

Today, we hear from Dr. Samantha Coleman and Sandria Washington from @blackandadopted about the lack of resources for same race black adoptees and how they are building the community and supports they wish they had. #AdopteesOn #AdopteeVoices traffic.libsyn.com/adopteeson/AO_…

Anne talks the intersections between living abroad as an American expat and being an adopted person. She shares about growing up with an adopted brother living out the defiant “acting out” adoptee stereotype. #AdopteeVoices #AdopteesOn traffic.libsyn.com/adopteeson/252…

Cam Lee Small shares how he went from aspiring rock band guitarist to a therapist who primarily works with adoptees and their families. We talk about the complexities of supporting adopted children while keeping adoptive parents engaged. #AdopteesOn traffic.libsyn.com/adopteeson/E25…

Thank you so much to the 34 people who have donated towards our transcription project! This is a massive undertaking and I would truly value anything you're able to contribute. Right now we're at $2,145 raised! AdopteesOn.com/Donate

Today, Laura Summers, LMFT, talks about how pet loss is a form of disenfranchised grief. Laura and I discuss how we can move through grief in a way that honours ourselves instead of trying to get to a finish line of feeling “fine”. #AdopteesOn traffic.libsyn.com/adopteeson/E25…

It’s not too late to sign up for this poetry workshop for BIPOC adoptees with @tiananob! ✍️

Today's guest is Angela Tucker, one of the most well-known adopted people in our community, subject of the documentary Closure, now turned author of You Should Be Grateful: Stories of Race, Identity, and Transracial Adoption. #AdopteesOn #AdopteeVoices traffic.libsyn.com/adopteeson/E24…

Today we are joined by @AmyGeller, LCSW, adoptee and therapist, and her husband Jeff Nyhuis. We talk with Amy and Jeff about coming out of the fog together and they give us advice about how we can start these conversations with our partners. #AdopteesOn traffic.libsyn.com/adopteeson/E24…
