Bob Pohl & Patrick Part 2

from The Anna Jinja Show · host Anna Jinja

Send us Fan Mail"Don't overthink it." — The best adoption advice you'll ever hear.  Part 2 of this remarkable conversation on The Anna Jinja Show is here — and it goes even deeper.  Bob Pohl and Patrick are back with host Anna Jinja, picking up right where they left off. This time, they get radically honest: about the fears that almost stopped everything, about the surprises hidden inside Susan Strong's memoir One Yes at a Time, and about what it truly means to be a father — biological or not.  Bob shares the moment he realized he had romanticized his daughters' journeys — and how reading their own journal entries in the book humbled him, changed him, and made him want to listen better. Patrick opens up about discovering that someone he loved deeply had silent doubts the whole time — and what it took to make peace with that.  And then there's the song. A quiet, beautiful moment where everything that couldn't be said — was felt.  This episode is for every parent who thought they had it figured out. Every person who's ever loved someone through the messy, imperfect, extraordinary chaos of family.  This conversation was made possible because of Susan Strong's memoir One Yes at a Time: How Open Adoption Transformed Our Family and a previous interview with Susan: https://www.buzzsprout.com/2185315/episodes/16127994-susan-strong-goth-dadSupport the show
