Is something that you've not resolved making you uncomfortable? Making you suffer? Our suffering lies in the gap between what we have - like resolution - and what we don't have. Listen in as adoptee Andy explores being ok with matters unresolved and much more.

Here's a bit about Andy

"I'm an adoptee who spent more than five decades wrestling with questions about identity, belonging, and what adoption ultimately means over the course of a lifetime. Like many adoptees, I believed that if I could somehow reconnect with my biological family, I'd finally understand who I was. Ironically, they found me.

For years, I imagined that reunion would answer the biggest questions of my life. It didn't. What I found instead was something far more nuanced. They were kind people. Good people. I'm genuinely grateful to know them, and I believe they're good to their core. But they weren't my people, and they didn't hold the answers I thought they would.

Ironically, the most meaningful part of the reunion wasn't discovering who they were. It was realizing they were never responsible for defining who I was in the first place. My mother was a psychotherapist who encouraged me throughout my life to examine each stage of that journey honestly and put language to what I was experiencing. That became one of the motivating forces behind writing my memoir, Blood = Water: The Search for Identity Beyond Biology.
I think many adoptees quietly wrestle with questions about biology, identity, expectations, forgiveness, and agency, but we don't always give ourselves permission to say those thoughts out loud.
