Bonus Episode

I'm honored to share a recent conversation I had with Simon Benn, host of the Thriving Adoptees Podcast.

We explored a subject that has shaped both my life and my work: post-traumatic growth.

For many years, I believed my childhood trauma defined who I was. What changed wasn't my past. It was my perspective. That shift transformed the way I saw myself, my relationships, and my future.

In this conversation, we discuss:

• Why trauma doesn't have to define your life

• The power of post-traumatic growth

• Childhood trauma and adoption

• Belief systems that quietly shape our decisions

• Reinvention after adversity

• Learning to see your story differently

If you've ever wondered whether healing is possible or whether your greatest pain could eventually become one of your greatest strengths, I hope this conversation encourages you.

A sincere thank you to Simon Benn for creating a space where these conversations can happen.
