The Emotional Fingerprint of an Adoptee podcast explores the lifelong impact of adoption on identity, belonging, and connection.
Co-created by Karen Chaston (biological mother) and Kim Rankin (adoptee), each episode offers raw, real conversations that reveal the unseen layers of reunion, the tug of the emotional umbilical cord, and the path to healing for adoptees, biological parents, adoptive parents, and the wider adoption circle.
