11 — Alexander Skadberg & Tove Lie: Adoptert og forlatt (Adopted & Abandoned)

I denne episoden inviterer vi Alexander Skadberg og den prisvinnende journalisten Tove Lie, forfatteren av boken Adoptert og forlatt. Da jeg leste boken i 2023, hadde jeg ingen anelse om at jeg en dag skulle lage en podcast — og enda mindre at jeg skulle få muligheten til å intervjue både Alexander og Tove. Historien traff meg rett i hjertet, for vi deler erfaringen av å være adopterte, vokst opp i Nord-Norge med annerledes hudfarge, og følelsen av å ikke høre til, møte motgang, psykiatri og rasisme. I episoden deler Alexander sin rørende og tøffe livshistorie — om barnevern, psykiatri, overgrep og familiegjenforening — og vi snakker om motstandskraft, identitet og håp.

Episoden bygger videre på Alexander Skadbergs og Tove Lies podcast ”SISU – med Skadberg og Lie”, hvor “SISU” er et finsk ord som symboliserer ekstraordinær kraft og besluttsomhet — det som kan hjelpe barn og unge å overvinne store utfordringer, selv når alt virker håpløst. Vertene, Alexander Skadberg, foredragsholder med en sterk personlig historie, og Tove Lie, prisvinnende journalist og redaktør, bringer både innsikt og varme til samtalen.

Mot jul er dette en bok jeg varmt anbefaler.

In this episode, we welcome Alexander Skadberg and award-winning journalist Tove Lie, author of the book Adopted and Abandoned. When I read the book in 2023, I had no idea that I would one day start a podcast — and even less that I would have the chance to interview both Alexander and Tove. The story touched me deeply, as we both share the experience of being adopted, growing up in Northern Norway with different skin color, and feeling like we didn’t belong, while facing adversity, psychiatry, and racism. In this episode, Alexander shares his moving and challenging life story — including child welfare, psychiatry, abuse, and family reunification — and we discuss resilience, identity, and hope.

The episode builds on Alexander Skadberg’s podcast “SISU – med Skadberg og Lie”, where “SISU” is a Finnish word representing extraordinary strength and determination — the quality that can help children and young people overcome great challenges, even when everything seems hopeless. The hosts, Alexander Skadberg, a speaker with a powerful personal story, and Tove Lie, award-winning journalist and editor, bring both insight and warmth to the conversation.

As we approach Christmas, this is a book I highly recommend.
