In this episode, we explore Spock from Star Trek through the adoptee lens—not because he was adopted, but because his identity is split between two worlds. As a half-human, half-Vulcan navigating cultural rejection, suppressed emotion, and outsider status, Spock embodies the inner tension many adoptees feel: the sense of never fully belonging. We talk about rejection, identity fragmentation, and what integration looks like when the world demands you choose a side.
