Thriving Adoptees

Thriving Adoptees

I was adopted at 5 weeks old and told so young I can't ever remember not knowing.
All went well until I found out at 40 that my teddy bear was a gift from my birth mother.
This to some very intense anger about being unloved and not feeling good enough.
I eventually came through that and decided to share what I've learned with others.
I now empower adoptive families to T.H.R.I.V.E.
