When They Were Young: Amplifying Voices of Adoptees

Ep. 48 Brandi Ebersol: Bring My Whole Self Always


Listen Later

This week in light of all the collective heart-breaks I wanted check in with everyone. How is your heart? My guest is the perfect person to share space in this tender moment.  She is such a light in this world, as a mentor and adoptive parent herself. She helps to shatter the myth that BIPOC people don't adopt--they do! And she just happens to be an adoptee to boot. We chat about  how being a Korean adoptee informed her path as an adoptive parent of a little black boy and how people reference her story when talking about adoption. When you listen you'll know why!
