ADOPTEE REMEMBRANCE DAY #AdopteeRemembranceDay #ARD

<p>This is a special episode of the, Who Am I Really? podcast. My guest today is Pamela Karanova, who first appeared on the show on episode 160, "Stepping Into A Space Of Freedom". She told her story of addiction, thoughts of taking her own life and debilitating depression all in the context of her journey through adoption and reunion. </p><p>Thankfully, Pam has recovered from much of her life's trauma and finding her way out of the darkness inspired Pam to create some special things. I brought Pam back because she is the empowering adoptee advocate behind two amazing movements - Adoptee Remembrance Day, a global observance of several serious adoptee focused issues and Adoptees Connect</p><p>a soon to be international movement to get adoptees together in person to support one another. I asked Pam to share about the movements she has started. </p><p><a href="https://adopteeremembranceday.com/what-is-adoptee-remembrance-day-october-30th/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"><strong>Adoptee Remembrance Day </strong></a> <strong>#AdopteeRemembranceDay #ARD #AdopteesWeRemember</strong></p><p><strong>Adoptees Connect:</strong> https://adopteesconnect.com/</p><p><strong>Plant an affiliate:</strong> https://adopteesconnect.com/start-an-affiliate/</p><p><strong>TED Talk: </strong><a href="https://www.ted.com/talks/ruth_monnig_adoption_dna_and_the_impact_on_a_concealed_life/transcript?language=en" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Adoption, DNA, and the Impact on a Concealed Life</a></p><p><u>Who Am I Really?</u></p><ul><li>Who Am I Really?
