In this episode, Trisha White Priebe—an adult adoptee, writer, and speaker—joins the show to talk about something we don’t always think about: how families who aren’t part of the adoption or foster care world can still help their kids understand it. There are plenty of resources out there for adoptive families, but what about the parents whose kids have classmates or friends who are adopted or in foster care? How do those families start the conversation?
Trisha shares practical, thoughtful ways to help kids build empathy and have respectful, age-appropriate conversations about adoption and foster care. She believes every child can benefit from learning how to talk about different kinds of families—and that those small conversations can make a big difference.
With honesty, Trisha brings her own experience as an adoptee to the table, offering encouragement and hope to adoptees, birth families, and adoptive families. Her mission is simple: to help more people feel seen, supported, and understood.
