Here's the link to Pamela's interview:https://thriving-adoptees.simplecast.com/episodes/finding-happiness-within-with-pamela-karanovaHere's the link to the podcast about us being more than molecules.https://www.simonmundie.com/blog/challenging-the-mainstream-model-of-reality-bernardo-katdrupSome words from Miguel:Before there was my adoption, there was my relinquishment. And here is something I have believed about myself since I was a child, since before I knew I was an alcoholic: My birthmother took one look at me and knew that I was worthless and unlovable and unredeemable. She didn’t want to keep me because she knew something was wrong with me.(I know that this absolutely isn’t true, and that my birthmother loved me very much and made a very difficult choice. But this is what I have told myself.)Adoptees & Addiction is a peer led support group. We are NOT an official 12 step program or officially aligned with any. Most members are a part of AA or NA or OA or SLA or have been in the past, but it's absolutely not a requirement for being a member.Most members would say that the power of the group comes from being in a meeting where you don't have to explain anything about being an adoptee, where you can talk about adoptee issues or addiction issues without fear of judgment or misunderstanding and with lots of heads actually nodding in recognition along with what you're saying.Find out more at:https://www.adopteesandaddiction.com/Email Miguel - [email protected] Guests and the host are not (unless mentioned) licensed pscyho-therapists and speak from their own opinion only.

Seeing that we are bigger than our wound. What???? Listen in and all will be revealed. You're going to love this...
