As we mark the incredible milestone of our 1-year anniversary, I want to take a moment to extend my deepest gratitude to each and every one of you. It's been an extraordinary journey since we embarked on this path together, and none of it would have been possible without your unwavering support and engagement.

Your willingness to listen, share, and engage with our content has turned our podcast into a vibrant community of voices, shedding light on the adoptee experience in ways we could only have dreamed of when we started. Each episode we've shared, story we've told, and voice we've amplified has been enriched by your feedback, insights, and personal stories.

This anniversary is not just a celebration of what we've achieved together but also a testament to the power of sharing and understanding diverse narratives within the adoptee community. You've helped create a space where all voices can be heard, respected, and valued. For that, I am profoundly thankful.

Looking ahead, I am filled with excitement for what the future holds. With your continued support, we will keep amplifying adoptee voices, exploring new stories, and fostering even deeper connections within our community. Here's to another year of growth, discovery, and mutual support.
