We start off with our new❓Q+A segment, where our host answers questions that were submitted by YOU! 💬⁠

👋🏼 Then we meet Anna and Zoe, both adopted from China between 10 and 12 months old. 🇨🇳⁠
⁠
🙋🏻‍♀️ Anna used to feel secretive and confused about her adoption, but as she gets older, she feels more and more confident and open about it. Now, she's looking forward to exploring and learning more about Chinese culture.⁠

🙋🏻‍♀️ Zoe used to feel confused and upset about her adoption, but with age comes knowledge, so as she's gotten older, she's learned more about the "why" behind it. Now, with more understanding under her belt, she has comes to terms with her adoption. Now, she's excited to reach out to the adoptee community more and help others to feel that they are not alone.⁠

🎙️ After, join us for a quick reflection on today’s episode where host, Liza, shares how she breaks it all down. From taking notes ✍🏼 and active listening👂🏼 to unpacking the psychology behind each interview 🧠 and how she, herself, processes these conversations, 🙋🏻‍♀️ Liza gives insight into what you could take away from this episode, too.⁠
