In episode one of series 5 of The Stork and I Podcast I chat to Kiara.

Kiara is a 24 year-old donor conceived person who was raised by her solo mom, Nicki. She lives in Chicago and is writing a book about being donor conceived and her story of navigating life and finding her donor related family. She is trying to redefine society's notion of a "traditional family". You can check her out on instagram @kiararaeschuh and get a free preview of her book at kiararaeschuh.com.

- How it feels to connect with your donor

- Whether genetics makes a family

- Advice for solo parents
