Thriving Adoptees - Let's Heal

Changing The Narrative With Jodi Gill & Josh Heitzmann Adoptees

Episode Summary

Why don't we hear about adoptees thriving? Why is the trauma narrative so strong? How do we leave that behind us? Jodi, Josh (a clinical psychologist) and host Simon discuss issues that run deep to inspire and empower listeners.

Episode Notes

Jodi is the President of The Adoptee Group and Josh is  their mental health director. The Adoptee Group was founded in 2020 to serve the Korean adoptees. It was later decided to support all adoptees and the adoption community. The group grew to 23 volunteers in the early stages. In 2021, their organization will launch TAG Network, a program that will offer mentors for youth age adoptees, coaches for adult age adoptees and mental health professional support for all adoptees. They will also launch TAG Cares, a funding program that will support the expenses for mental health professional sessions.
