What Happens When We Speak Out

Too often when adoptees share their lived experience they are met with resistance. In this episode we unpack what adoptees face when they share experiences that challenge the narrative around adoption. We invite you to get curious alongside us as to how we can create more safety in these conversations and how we can advocate for more safety for adoptees to minimize and elevate harm. In this episode we chat some about current events as they are related to Colin Kaepernick. Together we have the power to heal broken systems.
