Long Lost

Long Lost Podcast is a space to open up conversations about adoption from all aspects. Through interviews and shared stories, this podcast can inspire others to unfold their biological history. It serves as an outlet for people to talk amongst comrades who have gone through similar circumstances and highlight a subject that is too often brushed away or left undiscussed. Adoption, whether it’s an adopted child or a parent who has given a child up for adoption, is a topic of uneasiness and I want to shed a light on it. Everyone's perspective can ignite an incredible adventure if they choose to take it.
