- The Truth Before Trailer
Lynda was fourteen when she had her son. She was forty-eight the next time she heard his voice. But The Truth Before isn't just about the reunion. It's about everyone who has lived alongside the secrets: birthmothers told to forget, birthfathers never asked, siblings and relatives who knew but could never tell or help carry the grief. Lynda has lived this story and walked beside many others living theirs. Each episode uncovers the loss, the silence, and the pieces of identity finally explained.

About The Truth Before
From the publisher's feed
Every one of us is the place where two family histories meet. Two lines of people, running side by side, until something pulls them together: an adoption file, a DNA test, a father who isn't the…
father.
The Truth Before is about the lives lived before that moment: birthmothers who were told to forget, birth fathers who were never asked, the brothers and sisters who grew up beside a secret they never saw, and everyone who stood close enough to feel it without ever being told. It's about the truth people carried before anyone else knew it, and what happens when two stories finally collide.
Hosted by Lynda, who lived this story herself, and has spent years walking beside others through theirs.
