Who Am I Really?Adoptee Stories Author: Damon L. Davis
Adoptees telling their own stories of life in adoption, their search for their birth family, and how their reunion attempt turned out. Stories that make you laugh, cry, or simply say "wow". This podcast has two purposes: 1) To help you explore your own feelings about your adoption, accept your desire understand your own personal history, and decide for yourself whether reunification with your biological relatives is right for you. It will help you understand how others have dealt with issues related to protecting the feelings of their adopted families who may be supportive of your search, or question your motives and present challenges. 2) For non-adoptees, this podcast will help you understand some of what is in the minds of your friends, family members, or others who are adopted. Perhaps you had questions for them but you didnt know if you should ask. The stories will make you smile or bring you to tears, but theyre all true as told by the people who lived them. In them, I hope youll find something that inspires you, validates your feelings about wanting to search, or motivates you to have the strength along your journey to learn Who Am I Really?
