Mind Your Own Karma – The Adoption Chronicles

Adoptees, don't bypass this episode because of a guest foster parent and hopful adopive parent. I think you'll be surprised by a lot that she has to say.

Cristal Baez is a dedicated foster mother whose journey into the world of fostering was driven by a profound desire to adopt and create a loving, healing home for children. She is still in the process of adopting and found the journey complex as she navigates not only the foster system, but her foster children’s needs and struggles as well.

Cristal is also a Spiritual Life Coach and the founder of Love Your Now Comadre, where she empowers others on their journeys of self-discovery and healing, drawing from over a decade of experience in trauma-informed care and crisis intervention.

Cristal's journey through personal and professional experiences has fostered a deep understanding of trauma's complexities. She illuminates the layers of identity, loss, and resilience that shape individuals, advocating for healing, authenticity, and community. Her mission is to help others find strength in vulnerability and embrace their spiritual journey.

Mind Your Own Karma – The Adoption Chronicles Podcast educates listeners on the realities of adoption through the stories of adoptees, birth parents, and adoptive parents. We delve into their journeys, exploring identity, the emotional impacts of adoption, and the complexities that are involved when a child is removed from their biology.

We also tackle tough topics like transracial adoption and adoption ethics, featuring experts and advocates. By sharing these diverse perspectives we hope to not only educate the world, but also give ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠hope and healing⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ to those deeply affected by adoption trauma.

*** This podcast's mission is on adoption education. If you have an expertise that you think would be beneficial to anyone touched by adoption and would like to be on the podcast, get in touch with me.
