  • Hopeful

    I am not an adoptee, but adoption has impacted our family in the past. I was not aware of this till about 15 years ago when a cousin and his wife told everyone that she had gone to a mother baby home. They were too young, her parents sent her away, and then, within a year they were married, and now have children and grandchildren. more

  • There’s room for everyone here!

    As an adoptee that was wading through the complex process of reunion and a foster turned adoptive mom walking through the challenges and of navigating open adoption, finding this podcast has been such a help and support on multiple levels. The Nelsons are compassionate and open interviewers who manage to hold space for all members of the adoption constellation and give a voice and a platform to varied views and experiences with love and compassion. You’ll be so glad you tuned in!!

  • Insightful and enjoyable!

    I'm learning so much as I listen to this podcast that helps me better understand my friends who have adopted, my past situations in foster care, and even my current parenting and coparenting situations outside of the adoption world. The hosts are fun to listen to and the variety of interviews is interesting.

  • Thoughtful and nuanced

    I just had to leave a review for this podcast. The Nelsons have put together a show that incorporates so much valuable information, and their interviews with guests include perspectives from all the different people involved in and impacted by the adoption process, and explores many of the issues that often go overlooked in discussions about adoption. This podcast is a great resource and I am so grateful that it exists! Keep up the amazing work!
