I get to interview some incredibly special people on the show, and today is a perfect example. I am thrilled to introduce you to Miguel Caballero. Miguel shares some of his story with us including how he got sober eight years ago. There are so many adopted people who struggle with addiction, and Miguel describes feeling that he had a birth-mother-shaped hole to fill. He’s gone on to fill a great need in our community by starting the peer-led support group Adoptees and Addiction. <a href="https://www.adopteeson.com/listen/176">Full Show Notes Here</a> Connect With Us <ul> <li>Miguel Caballero: <a href= "https://www.adopteesandaddiction.com/">www.adopteesandaddiction.com</a> | <a href="http://instagram.com/adopteesandaddiction">Instagram</a> | <a href= "https://www.facebook.com/miguelmagellan/">Facebook</a></li> <li>Haley Radke: <a href= "https://twitter.com/haleyradke">Twitter</a> | <a href= "https://www.instagram.com/haleyradke/">Instagram</a> | <a href= "https://www.facebook.com/haleyradkepodcaster">Facebook</a></li> <li>Adoptees On: <a href= "https://twitter.com/adopteeson">Twitter</a> | <a href= "https://www.instagram.com/adopteeson/">Instagram</a> | <a href= "https://www.facebook.com/adopteesonpodcast">Facebook</a></li> </ul> Subscribe <a href= "http://itunes.apple.com/us/podcast/adoptees-on/id1123372859">Apple Podcasts</a> | <a href= "https://www.google.com/podcasts?feed=aHR0cDovL2Fkb3B0ZWVzb24ubGlic3luLmNvbS9yc3M%3D"> Google Podcasts</a> | <a href= "https://www.iheart.com/podcast/263-Adoptees-On-Discover-28264488/"> iHeart Radio</a> | <a href= "https://open.spotify.com/show/6DHevAi3rn7SfugmlPBSKJ">Spotify</a> | <a href= "http://www.stitcher.com/s?fid=93562&refid=stpr">Stitcher</a> | <a href="https://youtube.com/adopteeson">YouTube</a> Support Adoptees On <a href= "https://www.paypal.com/donate/?hosted_button_id=HU8AYRHKXSJSE">One Time Donation</a> | <a href= "https://www.patreon.com/adopteeson">Monthly</a> | <a href= "https://www.patreon.com/adopteeson">Secret Facebook Group</a> Connect <a href="https://www.adopteeson.com/newsletter">Occasional Newsletter</a> | <a href="https://www.adopteeson.com/connect">Send a Note</a>

177 [Healing Series] Internalized Oppression

The podcast where adoptees discuss the adoption experience. This is not the usual adoption talk. You will find real, raw, and deep feelings addressed in these interviews. No sugar-coating here! Come and laugh, cry, learn and heal with us.

Adult adoptees share stories of search, reunion, and secondary rejection. Adoptees On also curates recommended resources to encourage and educate the adoption community about adoptee issues.
