Adoptees in 3: Connecting Mind, Heart, and Action
Adoptees in 3: Connecting Mind, Heart, and Action is a video interview series produced by Boston Post Adoption Resources as part of BPAR’s adoptee-focused Voices Unheard program. In each episode, a BPAR clinician/adoptee asks an adoptee guest three enlightening questions about the current state of their adoptee journey and how it’s sitting in their mind, heart, and giving new purpose or meaning to their life.
Our hope is that these stories can impact the adoption community and start to open the doors of deeper consciousness for adoptees, as well as their family, friends, partners and therapists!
