S2E36 - Black Girl White Family

Today's conversation is with Amanda McKinstry-- the voice, creator, and adoptee advocate for Black Girl White Family. She has not only had her own journey and struggles as a transracial adoptee, but has been putting in the work to create a business to help families like hers to create a better experience for transracial adoptees.

As we always say: the adoption process does not end for the adoptee when they enter their second family. This is only the beginning.

Be sure to check her out on instagram!
