Episode 31 (S2): Fully Seen - An Adoption Story

Oakland x Asian x Mom Podcast

Hi everyone! This is our 2nd episode on the topic of Adoption - a bonus episode since Sarah and I remembered that Tracy, our mutual friend, was adopted! Tracy, adopted as a newborn, tells us about her journey from her birth at a Thai refugee camp then immigrating to the state of Alabama and finally settling in Oakland, CA where she has made her home for the past 40+ years. Tracy shares stories about finding her biological family by literally word of mouth and about living with them for a month long stay. Tracy also sheds light what it had been like living mutli-generationally and how supporting and loving family members —from a grandson to a grandmother — has blessed and affirmed who she is.
