Connecting to the adoptee community can be very helpful to the adoptee in search and reunion. Several months ago, Host Lisa Ann sat down with Author and Podcaster Jennifer Dyan Ghoston to discuss the benefits of connection adoptee-to-adoptee. Their lived experiences spawned a creative shared episode, where they listed out a few of their favorite resources.  If you are not familiar with Jennifer, she has been connected to the adoptee community for over a decade and is interested in hearing the personal stories of adoptees from all over the globe. The Truth So Far… is her memoir capturing an open, honest and public adoption experience. To further give into the community, Jennifer hosts the podcast Once Upon A Time...In Adopteeland.  Both Jennifer and Lisa Ann hope you enjoy the spirit of community and creativity in this week's episode.  Want to connect with Jennifer:  http://www.jenniferdyanghoston.com IG:  @onceuponatimeinadopteeland  Twitter: @Jenniferghoston and FB: Jennifer Dyan Ghoston RESOURCES DISCUSSED  Podcasts: The Adoption Files - Ande StanleyWho Am I Really - Damon DavisAdoptees On and Adoptees Off Script - Haley RadkeyPulled By By the Root - Heidi MarbleOnce Upon A Time...In Adopteeland - Jennifer Dyan Ghoston Adopted Feels - Hana and RyanAdoption: The Making of Me - Louise Browne and Sarah Reinhardt This Adoptee Life - Amanda MedinaBlack to the Beginning (podcast) hosted by Dr. Samantha Coleman and Sandria Washington Books/Blogs: The Gathering Place - Emma StevensThe Lies that Bind - Laureen PitmanTree of Strangers - Barbara Sumner Searching for Mom: A Memoir - Sara EasterlyThe Truth So Far...: a detective's journey to reunite with her birth family - Jennifer Dyane Ghoston Betty Jean Lifton (author) “Twice Born”Jean Strauss (author) “Beneath a tall tree” and “Birthright”Nancy Verrier (author) “Coming Home To Self”Ann Fessler (author) “The Girls Who Went Away”Julian Washio Collette (Blog) Peregrine Adoptee: Wandering Reflections of a Life in FragmentsGroups: Adoption MosaicFireside Adoptees (Private and Public Groups)Adoptees Connect - state chapters / groupsAdoptee Voices Writing Group founded by Sara Easterly(Co-facilitators; Ridghaus, Alice Stephens, Kate Murphy and Jennifer Dyan Ghoston) www.adoptee-voices.comMiscellaneous: Adopteereading.comBookshop.org/shop/reunionlandpress.
