S2E57 INTERVIEW WITH GREG GENTRY
**This podcast may contain triggering content about adoption.**
Greg was born California in 1969 and placed in a closed adoption as an infant after spending 6 weeks in foster care, which was a common practice with Baby Scoop Era adoptions. Growing up, he sensed a certain ill-fit with his family, and found out about his adoption when he was 10.
In 2006, at age 37, he finally discovered and made contact with his biological maternal side, and has experienced all the attendant ups-and-downs that so often accompany reunion. He was able to connect with his paternal family in late 2021, and is currently navigating the landscape and complexities of those newly-emerging relationships.
Since coming out of the fog in 2021, Greg has been an active member of the online and in-person adoptee communities. Listen in for some deep insights.
If you or someone you know would like to tell their adoption story on the podcast (anyone in the adoptee constellation), please send an email to [email protected], and your story will be considered for the podcast.

Due to the LONG-LASTING EMOTIONAL FALLOUT that can be part of adoption, I highly support the GENTLE HEALING SUPPORT of SMGI: Somatic Mindful Guided Imagery. For more information on this groundbreaking and highly successful method, go to https://www.somatichealingjourneys.com
Please seek professional help if you find yourself struggling with some of the realizations that you may experience during this episode.
This podcast's mission is on adoption education. If you have an expertise that you think would be beneficial to anyone touched by adoption and would like to be on the podcast, get in touch with me. I love to help fellow adoptees by helping to promote your latest project or expertise. It's time WE educate the world!!
