Send us Fan Mail"My heart believed I was a mistake."  Join us as we sit down with Linda Congdon, longtime Wenatchee resident, to learn about the inspiration for her first book, "Planted by Love." We hear first-hand, how she transforms this false belief, of being a mistake, and ultimately finds her way home to a loving heart.  For herself and for the biological parents she never knew.At 38 years old, Linda heard the voice of God say to her, “you have a natural father, you think of it as a closed book, but it’s an open book to me.” This is where her journey began, thirty two years ago.  We talk about how Linda worked with the Washington state agency, Washington Adoption Reunion Movement (WARM) to find her birth mother. How after about a year and a half waiting to hear news, one day she received a call from the agency, saying, “we found your birth mother, she will be calling you in about 20-minutes.” Hear how she reacted to the news and what happens when they meet a few months later.We unpack the process of forgiveness. The way it deepens self-awareness and helps us find the keys to unlock our own loving heart. You’ll also find out how to reframe feelings of brokenness to points of growth & maturity and how this helped Linda heal her relationship to self. Linda says, "I lived a lot of my life, not very alive, and deeply disconnected." She discovers through her personal journey to finding her birth parents that she is in fact loved and connected. It was only then she could release the rejection and abandonment, connected to her true heart---open and wanting more. Resources:1. Washington Adoption Reunion Movement - https://warmsearch.org2.
