Meet Your Guide: Charlyn Spiering

As an experienced adoptive parent, I understand the complexities of discussing adoption with children. Adding to the lessons I have learned the hard way, I have also done my own research into adoption issues. I have also benefitted from interacting with many adoptees, first parents, researchers, and others over the last few years of podcasting and writing about adoption issues for my project, Adoption Uncovered. Let me share the insights and strategies I have learned to help you navigate these conversations with confidence and compassion. My goal is to empower you to create a nurturing environment where your children feel safe and loved.
