This week on Trauma, Tea, and Tangents, we’re diving into the often-ignored reality of adoption trauma—because being “chosen” doesn’t cancel out birth trauma, identity confusion, or attachment wounds. Tisheila Justice, LCSW, joins us to unpack how early childhood development, attachment theory, and the loss of cultural identity deeply impact our ability to feel safe, connected, and emotionally regulated as adults. We’re calling out the “resilient kid” myth, breaking down what real healing looks like, and getting honest about what adoptees actually need to thrive. If you've ever felt like something was missing but couldn’t name it—this one's for you. Episode’s out now! Grab your tea and hit play.
