Tiffany Henness, a transracial adoptee, talks to us about her experience of realizing the trauma she inherently held as an adoptee and about the need to center adoptee’s voices when discussing adoption.
*note: there is some thumping on my audio track, not Tiffany’s, I edited it out the best that I could, but it will be evident to listeners. So sorry!

My new IG & TW handles might not be updated before this goes live so you can direct them to @CoachHenness. I’m in the middle of a rebrand and actually choosing a name for myself (as a pen name for now but eventually maybe a legal change…whole other thing about adoptees! the significance of a name haha)
