It’s hard to find podcasts that truly cover real life, its challenges and celebrations. Damon covers it in his podcast and it’s such a great way to listen to real life stories and successes.
As an adoptee - I grew up always knowing my backstory and just accepting it for what it was. Meeting Damon and learning and listening to his podcast was the first time I truly realised the impact being adopted has had and continues to have on me. So much to process and very grateful to have found this opportunity.
I was recently contacted by a half sibling. We share a father though we do not know who he is at this point. Meeting someone that that I am genetically related to has been the best thing in my life and also the most emotional. These podcasts have helped me realize that these feelings are normal though brand new to me.
I recently discovered this podcast as I went online seeking for help and understanding after finding out new info regarding my story and now I think I need to tell my story…. Thank you for all that you’re doing.
