Description:
In this episode of Constellation Conversations, Sarah and Brenda explore the complex dynamics of open adoptions, focusing on the challenges of reunion and the critical importance of biological family connections. Brenda shares her personal experiences navigating open adoption and reaching out to biological family, while Sarah provides insights into the emotional and developmental impacts of these connections from both an adoptee and professional perspective.
Together, they discuss how fear—whether for the adoptee or themselves—can influence decisions, and they emphasize the importance of centering adoptee needs while supporting all members of the adoption constellation. Whether you're an adoptive parent, adoptee, or part of the broader constellation, this conversation offers valuable insights and actionable steps for fostering healthy and meaningful relationships.
