I feel like it's never discussed, and when it is brought up, there are so many questions raised that people are uncomfortable.
Imagine reconnecting with your birth mother after years of separation. In this episode of 'The Couch 704', Damion Harmon and Jackie Curry sit down with Ms. Diane, Jackie's birth mother, to explore the intricate dynamics of adoption. They dive deep into how adoption shapes identity and the challenges of forming and maintaining healthy relationships. Through candid conversations, they tackle the stigma often associated with adoption and share personal stories that highlight the emotional complexities involved.
Race and ethnicity also come into play, adding another layer to the adoption narrative. The trio emphasizes the importance of open communication and self-care for both adoptees and birth parents. Whether you’re an adoptee, a birth parent, or simply curious about the topic, this episode offers valuable insights and resources to help navigate the adoption journey.
