Amy is a domestic adoptee, born in 1969. She was placed for adoption at birth. She grew up in a loving family and was well cared for. She was the "happy" adoptee, so grateful to her birth parents, her adopted parents and always trying to make everyone happy.

She has reunited with some of her birth family over the past 5 years and recently came out of the FOG.

She’s beginning to realize she was living behind the disguise of a happy, positive person who didn’t know the loss and grief she was carrying. Today Amy feels sad, confused, and angry about her adoption and feels that sharing her story is being honest for the first time in her life.

Amy has been married to a wonderfully supportive husband for 30 years. They have 3 amazing adult children and 2 golden retrievers.  She enjoys the outdoors and spending time with family and friends.

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!!
