It was a journey of self-discovery, and I learned a lot about myself and my family in the process.
What happens when the search for your birth parents becomes a journey of self-discovery? In this heartfelt episode of 'Speaking Candidly with Candace', Beth Witton opens up about her unique adoption story and the quest to find her biological parents. Raised by adoptive parents who followed Dr. Spock's open adoption philosophy, Beth always knew she was adopted. However, it wasn't until the passing of her adoptive parents that she felt compelled to seek out her birth parents.
Armed with DNA tests and ancestry websites, Beth faced numerous challenges and setbacks. While she successfully found her birth mother, the search for her birth father proved more elusive. Throughout this emotional journey, Beth discovered much about herself and how adoption had shaped her identity and relationships. This episode dives deep into themes of family, identity, and the personal growth that comes from uncovering one's roots.
It's a moving conversation that resonates with anyone touched by adoption or searching for a deeper understanding of themselves.
