Ep 70 — Alisha Bennett, LCSW — The Myth of the Lucky Adoptee

In this moving conversation, we speak with Alisha, a therapist and Korean adoptee, about her lifelong search for identity and home. She shares the story of being adopted from Korea as an infant, growing up in a small Midwestern town, reuniting with her birth mother in her thirties, and navigating motherhood herself. We explore the myths of adoption, the grief that lives in the body, and what it means to come into community and consciousness as an adult adoptee.

You can learn more about Alisha Bennett here. We also recommend this Frontline documentary, “South Korea’s Adoption Reckoning.”

LOVELINK is hosted by Brooklyn-based therapists Dr. Signe Simon and Dr. Simone Humphrey. If you’d like to contact us directly, send us an email to info@modernmind.co.
