More than a podcast...
I’ve been listening to Adapted for a while now and am beyond happy that this important work continues. I’m a Korean adoptee like those Kaomi interviews and features on Adapted. Growing up, there were very few Asian perspectives and voices that were accessible to me as mirrors or guides to my developing sense of identity as an Asian American. The same was even more true in regard to my Korean adoptee identity. This was before the internet, social media, and podcasts became ubiquitous. Even now as a husband, father, and man aged fifty, I still find that I am on the journey of adoptee experience that began as a child leaving Korea to join an American family in the mid-seventies. The sense of connection and community that comes from hearing other Korean adoptees tell their stories, share their insights, and discuss their struggles and victories is almost beyond words. When I say Adapted is more than another podcast, this is the meaning behind that. It’s a window into a shared experience. Listening to Adapted provides the opportunities to examine how these experiences compare and contrast and in doing so lend validity to each other’s variety of being and being adopted. I highly and I’m the most heartfelt way recommend listening to Adapted and don’t be surprised if the more you listen, the more you’ll take away. Thank you Kaomi Goetz for this great gift to our community. 💕💕💕

I am neither Asian nor adopted and I have learned so much from this podcast. It is always interesting and has certainly updated my views about adoption in general and transracial and transnational adoption. I highly recommend it.
