  • S1E1: In this first episode we dive deep into the complexities and emotional landscapes of adoption through Isaac's eyes, alongside his adoptive parents, Julie and Bruce. This episode unfolds the tender yet turbulent journey of a family knit by choice and love.
    From the initial steps of adoption filled with doubts and dreams, to the nuanced struggles of identity and belonging that Isaac faces, we explore the multifaceted layers of adoption. Isaac's story is one of searching and finding - not just his place within his family but also reconciling the parts of himself in his quest for identity.
    Through heartfelt conversations, we witness the challenges of attachment, the silent battles with abandonment, and the relentless pursuit of self-discovery that transcends the conventional narratives of adoption.

    Julie, Bruce, Sarah, isaac.... thank you so VERY MUCH for sharing this story. Obviously, you have chosen the path of love and kindness for yourselves and for each other. It is the narrow path. It is a difficult path. It brings us joy and leads to life! Thank you.

    This is a cautionary story for parents wanting to adopted, after they are grown they won't look at you as their Mom, Dad there always be the birth family they want to connect and have a relationship with, I am not saying they don't care about the adoptive patents because they do, but not in the same way they think of the birth parents. If you are looking to adopt you need this information about the adult adoptee's issues. It can be very painful to go through this, if you don't understand this maybe adoption is not for you.
