*** WARNING! This episode contains descriptions of forced relinquishment and may contain other triggering content about adoption. ***

Do you ever watch a movie and think, "Thank goodness nothing like this has happened in real life. It's only a movie"? Well, think again. Today, I'm bringing you a little history that I was clued into by a fellow adoptee. It sounded interesting, so I did some research, and I was thoroughly shocked. Today, I'm taking you to Ireland, where... Well, I'll let you listen to the story, but maybe you've already figured out that it's not about hanging your clothes out on a line. This is no Disney movie, so if you're in a tender spot in your adoption journey, you may want to skip this episode. Please be forewarned that the story is tragic and may impact you emotionally. There is a small bright spot in there as well, though. I did mention a few YouTube videos that I watched, so those links are provided below.

 

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!!
