Thriving Adoptees - Let's Thrive

Unstuck With Adoptee Kirsten Weatherford


Listen Later

Kirsten never wanted to be stuck. So how did she become unstuck from her trauma? So she could heal, grow and move forward. How did she keep going when it got really scary and would have been easier to turn back. Listen in to a very powerful and empowering episode.

Here's a bit about Kirsten  and her book from her website:

 I was born and immediately relinquished for adoption in Pennsylvania in 1971. I have spent the last ten years unraveling what that means for me. It is a never-ending journey with no clear road map. I have been in reunion with my first mom since 2017.

I currently reside in Montana with my husband and the two kids who still live at home. The other three kids are out adulting on their own, and I am lucky enough to have them all live nearby.

“Finding My Way Home” is a journey. It is a journey across the ocean, across the country, and out of the adoptee fog. The roadmap that was hidden away by a 1970’s closed adoption is unearthed, and the trail begins to clear. It leads not only to place, but to people. The trip covers countless miles and spans years of time that eventually lead right back to the only person who was there for every step of the journey, the author herself. It is a tale of physical travel that parallels the personal quest many adoptees struggle to navigate, the pathway to knowing themselves.
