Adoption, Identity & Healing the Primal Wound with Erica Bonham
In this powerful episode, therapist and author Erica Bonham opens her heart and shares a lifelong grief journey shaped by adoption, early loss, identity struggles, and the complex dynamics of loving—and losing—two mothers.
Erica and Chris explore the primal wound experienced by many adoptees, the layered grief of identity, and the “brutiful” intersection of love and loss. Erica also discusses her transformative experience with ketamine-assisted therapy, how it helped heal the deepest parts of her nervous system, and why healing is a nonlinear, lifelong path rather than a destination.
If you’ve ever struggled with belonging, boundaries, identity, grief, or the weight of childhood wounds, this episode will offer clarity, validation, and hope. Come listen to a conversation that invites compassion, curiosity, and connection at the deepest level.
