A Braverman Than I

Secret Son
A Braverman Than I
Show Notes

I met therapist/adoptee advocate Joe Soll in the mid-90s in New York City. 

We'll discuss decades-long family searches, "spaciness" and getting fed up with living in secrecy. 

As we all slowly beat back the darkness and embrace much-needed longer days (I'm looking at you especially, Berlin), this is the perfect episode to shine some light on the adoptee perspective. 

Druids and pagans and normies - together, onward into the light! 

Music, as always, by the inimitable Cassis Birgit Staudt.
