I’m the creator and host of this show, which aired it’s first episode on July 1, 2016, a full decade ago! When I started Adoptees On all those years ago, my teens were a toddler and a preschooler and I podcasted in a corner of my basement with a laundry rack behind me that I’d toss a quilt overtop of for better sound quality. I had met a few adoptees on twitter and I wanted to have more in depth conversations about reunion, grief, mental health, identity and healing. I just didn’t know that thousands of you wanted that too. Thank you for building this show with me. This milestone moment is for every single guest who trusted me with their stories, every listener who felt seen while listening, and all the folks who have supported the show via Patreon, sharing episodes with a friend, or leaving me comments or reviews. I am so honoured to be in community with all of you. Thank you!

Today I’ve invited a couple of friends to turn the microphone on me, and we run the gauntlet of tears to laughter in a very short time, I hope you enjoy! Sullivan Summer and Kristal Parke of Adoption Pop! are here to celebrate ten incredible years with us today!
