Manage episode 456898992 series 2796984
Hey there, love! Today we have Shania Ives as a guest! Shania is an adult adoptee from the UK, the Founding Director of The Dunbar Project, and a trainee integrative psychotherapist. Her mission is to create spaces for empowerment and growth within marginalized communities.
Shania is the very first adoptee I’ve met whose adoptive parents strove to preserve Shania’s connection with her biological family. The story on how her Adoptive parents understood and organized themselves around her trauma is breathtaking.
We discuss:
- The atmosphere of adoption in the UK
- Shania's biological father’s struggle to keep her
- How she founded the Dunbar Project
- What Shania's philosophy to RECLAIM. REFRAME looks like
- We also unpack a variety of resources for extraordinary organizations and initiative for adoptees in the UK and beyond
- And Shania breakdown why is important to have Trauma informed caregivers.
