Adoptee Voyages

On this week's episode, join my conversation with Rob Leyder about the uniqueness of a transracial adoptee's story. Rob is adopted from South Korea, raised in Michigan, and recently moved to the Greater Seattle Area for a job focused on supporting youth. We share different experiences that are unique to transracial adoptees; all stemming around the idea of what is our adoptee identity, what communities do we feel we belong to, and what hope we have for others who share our experience.

On this week's episode, join my conversation with Tiffany Bluhm about our transracial adoptee identity. Tiffany Bluhm is the author of Prey Tell: Why We Silence Women Who Tell the Truth and How Everyone Can Speak Up and podcast co-host of Why Tho. We discuss how we perceived our identity from a young age endured hardships, negative viewpoints, and struggles. From there, she shares her experience seeing her adoptee identity in a new light as well as what embracing her first culture as an adult transracial adoptee in America is like.

Adoptee Voyages strives to provide a space for transracial adoptees to connect, heal, and speak their experiences. The founder, Erika Lorenz, is a transracial adoptee from Peru who was raised in Colorado. She has the honor to invite other transracial adoptees to speak about their story and experiences every week.
