I think adoptees are trained at a very young age at how to live in two worlds, almost forced to live in two worlds: the world where you wonder where you came from and what that was like, but the world, with these people that saved you and knowing what they were like and having to dance this dance between the two worlds.
Adoption can be a journey filled with unexpected twists and emotional complexities. In this episode of The Freeology Podcast, Chuck and Jason sit down with Jill Uchiyama to explore her unique adoption story. Jill opens up about the experience of being ethnically matched with her adoptive family and the momentous discovery of her three half-siblings.
This conversation dives deep into what it means to live in two worlds as an adoptee, a skill that many adoptees are trained to master from a young age. Jill also shares her passion for poetry, reading a heartfelt piece that encapsulates her adoption experience. The episode wraps up with a look towards the future, discussing the importance of thriving as adoptees and what listeners can expect in upcoming episodes.
If you're curious about the intricacies of adoption, emotional resilience, and the power of storytelling through poetry, this episode is a must-listen.
