Mind Your Own Karma – The Adoption Chronicles Podcast educates listeners on the realities of adoption through the stories of adoptees, birth parents, and adoptive parents. We delve into their journeys, exploring identity, the emotional impacts of adoption, and the complexities that are involved when a child is removed from their biology.
We also tackle tough topics like transracial adoption and adoption ethics, featuring experts and advocates. By sharing these diverse perspectives we hope to not only educate the world, but also give hope and healing to those deeply affected by adoption trauma.

Adoptees, don't bypass this episode because of a guest foster parent and hopful adopive parent. I think you'll be surprised by a lot that she has to say.
Cristal Baez is a dedicated foster mother whose journey into the world of fostering was driven by a profound desire to adopt and create a loving, healing home for children. She is still in the process of adopting and found the journey complex as she navigates not only the foster system, but her foster children’s needs and struggles as well.
Cristal is also a Spiritual Life Coach and the founder of Love Your Now Comadre, where she empowers others on their journeys of self-discovery and healing, drawing from over a decade of experience in trauma-informed care and crisis intervention.
Cristal's journey through personal and professional experiences has fostered a deep understanding of trauma's complexities. She illuminates the layers of identity, loss, and resilience that shape individuals, advocating for healing, authenticity, and community. Her mission is to help others find strength in vulnerability and embrace their spiritual journey.

This lack of racial identity caused depressing confusion and conflict with his education, relationships, and career, but his mom insisted that he was not to search for his birth family
Around age 40, Shawn and his wife decided that they were well-suited to adopt other biracial babies. Through the adoption process, Shawn discovered clues that helped him locate and reunite with his biological family.
Although Shawn's author name for his book "Born Without A Race" is Dr Michael Bauer, he wishes to be addressed as Shawn during this interview for personal reasons.

Shelly is a private domestic adoptee, born 2 years post Baby Scoop Era in North Carolina. She was raised a minister's daughter, along with her younger sister that her adoptive parents conceived.
She was forced to become a birthmother at 17. She has 5 children, and her oldest daughter is adopted due to illegal rehomings. Trying to find answers for herself and her adoptive daughter....the journey began.
Shelly fought the system to find out her identity, place of birth, and date of birth. She lost and ended up paying $4,000 to find out who she was and where she came from. She began her search before DNA was available.
Because of her personal journey, she became a Search Angel for others. She quit her career and began searching and doing reunifications for other adoptees. She believes we all deserve answers — it is our inherent right.

What she discovered in the research of Adoption Songs is a unique condition that many adoptees face in their world, and that is of belonging and identity. This offering is intended to enable those curious about this misunderstood population to be a resource, to be a conversation starter, and inspire adoptees to search for their identity.
She is hopeful Adoption Songs can create insight into this phenomenon so that everyone who can relate can seek the support to move beyond adoption's limitations and emerge more grounded, connected, renewed, and purposeful.

In her highly anticipated debut feature documentary, titled "Because She's Adopted," Kristal Parke delves deep into her own life story while also weaving together the narratives of other adoptees from diverse backgrounds.
Adoptee Kristal Parke is a talented Cree filmmaker, producer, podcaster whose personal journey has driven her to explore themes of identity, belonging, and family in her work.
Born and raised in the West Coast of Canada, Kristal was adopted into a non-indigenous family as an infant. This experience profoundly shaped her perspective on life, and she has used her creative prowess to shed light on the complexities of adoption and its impact on individuals and communities.
Through heartfelt interviews, poignant storytelling and powerful visuals, the film offers a touching and introspective exploration of what it truly means to belong, and the universal longing for a sense of connection and acceptance.
With "Because She's Adopted," Kristal Parke cements herself as a compassionate and insightful filmmaker, encouraging audiences to reflect on their own stories of identity and belonging.
