Adoptees On

12/07/2024

I am so thrilled to share this episode today. It is absolutely a must listen! We’re joined by Pam Cordano, MFT, talking all about the seven challenges of adoptee attachment, which include profound ongoing chronic misattunement, disconnection from our instincts, and commodification.

Today we are celebrating eight years of Adoptees On!

A few weeks ago someone said something to me that sparked a memory in me: I persistently felt like no one listened to me throughout my childhood, and well into adulthood. I was spoken over, ignored, and patronized repeatedly. I was soft spoken for a long time and that seemed to give permission to bulldoze over my opinions. As I aged, as I’m sure it is for many folks, I gained confidence and became much more assertive and sure of myself. That didn’t seem to fix that deep-seated belief that had taken root, that no one listened to me because I wasn’t worth listening to.

One of the first tenets I wrote down when starting the Adoptees On podcast was that adoptee voices matter. I still deeply believe that. One of the things that’s been the hardest for me personally to absorb is that while I set out to learn from fellow adoptees and to elevate their voices, I got the gift of finding and accepting my own voice.

I hope that if you’ve listened to an episode or a few or a couple hundred, that we’ve empowered you to use your voice and experiences to impact the cultural narrative of adoption. I’ve seen it happen in myself, and I see it happening for you too!

Thank you for listening

Let's talk about lying!

Join us for a Zoom call with adoptee and adoptee therapist Janet Nordine, MS, LMFT, RPT-S. We're taking questions about lies and integrity. Some of us have been lied to, some of us lie to ourselves. This can be a really effective coping strategy, but likely doesn't serve us as well as living in the truth can. We will be answering questions and sharing our thoughts live at the Ask an Adoptee Therapist event.

A portion of the event will be recorded, and there will also be an unrecorded time when patrons can discuss and hang out with the host and therapist.

Reminder - all Adoptees On Patreon live events are limited to participants who are adoptees.

Alison Larkin is here today! It’s likely a lot of you already know Alison, but for those who are new to her, she is a stand-up comedian, voice artist, audiobook narrator, actress, producer, screenwriter, and bestselling author of The English American. Today we get to hear her story which includes reunions with both birth parents, seeking out a therapist after meeting Nancy Verrier, and how she finally came to truly fall in love in her fifties only to have her fiancé die suddenly during the pandemic. Alison recounts this in her brand new one-woman show, called Grief…A Comedy which is embarking on a world tour this summer.

Sara Easterly is back with us, she’s the author of Searching for Mom and the founder of Adoptee Voices. Today we’re talking about how Sara became friends with an adoptive mother and a birth mother in order to write a book called Adoption Unfiltered. It’s a hard conversation because when Haley got asked to endorse this book she had to say no, to a friend, who we value and deeply appreciate for her contributions to the adoptee community. So we got together to talk about it. We address the power dynamics when interacting with adoptive parents, we talk about whether or not adoption really is always going to be around, and what adoptive parents need to be doing now that they know they participated in a terrible system.

Adoptee Remembrance Day was first commemorated on October 30, 2020. We’ve done a variety of episodes over the last few years beginning in 2020 with an interview with the founder of Adoptee Remembrance Day, Pamela Karanova. We’ve had listeners submit recordings of their thoughts, their poetry and prose. In deciding what to do this year, we were considering what would be most impactful for our community and we chose to do a healing series episode about su***de. This is the thing that we whisper about, we hide, we allude to, we are ashamed of, and we’re getting braver about discussing. We’ve invited Lina Vanegas, MSW, to talk to us about su***de.

Today’s episode is a celebration for When We Become Ours: A YA Adoptee Anthology which releases on October 24, 2023. The first of its kind, edited by Shannon Gibney and Nicole Chung, with fifteen adoptee authors is cause for celebration. We’re going to hear from an emerging author, Stefany Valentine, who shares her story of being adopted at age twelve, while her biological father had a terminal illness. She is the first step-parent adoptee we’ve had on the show. We talk about the lack of consent to her adoption, the cultural losses Stefany suffered, and how it wasn’t until her mid-twenties that she realized her biological mother had been removed from her birth certificate. Next we’re going to hear from five more contributing authors who share about their stories in the collection and what it’s meant for them to be a part of this project.

This is a special episode in our healing series where we talk to adoptees who are also therapists. We’re going to call this episode a sort of “tune-up” for anyone who is in a period of estrangement or separation from a close relationship, whether it's adoptive parents, bio parents, somebody close in your life. We’re talking through some of the things people don't talk about publicly and some things to consider that might be impacting your life and you just don't even realize it till you hear Marta say it out loud! It’s a through-provoking episode and we hope it’ll be helpful for you.
