Top 9 Adoption Podcasts

The Anna Jinja show focuses on the stories, issues, and questions connected to adoption and foster care experiences.
The host is an international adoptee with biological roots in Korea and adopted roots in the United States. As you can imagine, her journey and experiences as a transracial adoptee are multifaceted. Her experiences have been with the pain of discrimination and rejection as well as the joys of self-discovery and learning to embrace all aspects of her identity.

Along the way, she has discovered that she is not alone. We’re all – in some ways – adopted into or out of homes, cultures, communities, and relationships as we grow and evolve. This show illuminates the theme of adoption, in all ways, in our lives. And how those experiences create who we are and who we are yet to be.

Her hope is that through engaging with the guests and creative content, we are welcomed home in this world, cradled in the belief that we belong, that we are worthy, and that we are loved.

So stay tuned, and you may discover your own adoption story.

The Anthem Award winning BONUS BABIES podcast is the only one of its kind that features the compelling true-life hard-hitting stories of those with a lived foster care experience and the people who care for them––all via the unique 360* lens of a Court Appointed Special Advocate (CASA) volunteer. Through raw first-hand accounts, BONUS BABIES reveals the daunting complexity of the foster care world while documenting the challenges, failures and successes of the system as well as the people and the agencies involved. The creator and host, Jayne Amelia Larson, is a CASA - a Court Appointed Special Advocate volunteer for youth in foster care. In the same way a CASA works, she explores all things in the foster care maze by talking to kids, parents, caregivers, attorneys, social workers, therapists, adoptees, adoptive parents, members of community and social programs...anybody and everybody who will speak to her to keep the conversation open and the information flowing about all things CASA––to give a forum to help people understand what it's like to have a lived foster care experience.

"Das ist der Podcast, den ich damals gebraucht hätte" - das sagt Marie. Als Model, Autorin und Influencerin ist ihr Leben schwer planbar und hektisch. Mutter zu werden, ist für sie nicht selbstverständlich. Als sie sich mit ihrem Freund Alex nach einigen beinahe philosophischen Diskussionen für ein Kind bereit fühlt, passiert etwas, mit dem sie nie gerechnet hätte: Sie wird nicht schwanger. Über Jahre. Es klappt einfach nicht. Nicht auf natürlichem Weg jedenfalls. Sie beginnt, Gründe zu suchen. Und Lösungen. Alternativen. Sie informiert sich akribisch. Spricht mit Experten. Mit Betroffenen. Schnell wird klar: es gibt deutlich mehr Menschen mit unerfülltem Kinderwunsch, als sie sich bisher vorgestellt hat.

Ihr persönlicher Weg führt Marie letztendlich in eine Kinderwunschklinik. Sie begibt sich auf eine Reise, auf die sie sich damals nicht vorbereiten konnte: Anstrengend, seelisch belastend und hoch emotional. Hoffnung und Enttäuschung lagen nie näher beieinander. Maries erste Versuche scheitern. Immer öfter entgleitet ihr die Zuversicht. Sie wird unsicher. Kann mein Körper überhaupt befruchtet werden? Was ist falsch an mir? Oder ist Alex das Problem? Seinen Part im Prozess der assistierten Reproduktion beschreibt er später als "entwürdigend" - jedenfalls für den Mann.

In dieser Phase werden auch Überlegungen zu Adoption und Pflegekind intensiver. Marie jedoch beschließt: Ich will eine leibliche Schwangerschaft erleben. Ich möchte die Miniversion von uns auf die Welt bringen. Die besten Eigenschaften von Alex und von mir, vereint. Es ist nicht nur meine DNA. Es ist mein Vermächtnis. Es ist meine Botschaft an unsere Generation, und an uns selbst. An unsere Verpflichtung, eine intakte Welt zu hinterlassen. Bei Marie und Alex zeigt sich das Schicksal wohlwollend. Marie wird schwanger. Das Paar sagt heute: Künstliche Befruchtung hat mit Romantik wenig zu tun - ist aber keinesfalls eine Schwangerschaft, die weniger echt oder gar seelenlos wäre. Im Gegenteil.

Dieser Podcast zeigt Maries und Alex` emotionale Reise zum eigenen Kind. Flankiert von Fachleuten, die Marie auf ihrem Weg begleiten, beraten und behandelt haben. Er dokumentiert eine schonungslos intime, ehrliche und gleichsam lehrreiche Lebensphase. Er zeigt ungeschminkte Realitäten zwischen Euphorie und Hilflosigkeit. Dazu gibt er Aufklärung über Optionen und Alternativen und skizziert Erlebnisse - prominenter - Betroffener, die offen mit Marie sprechen und dabei auch Themen wie Desinformation und Verunsicherung beleuchten und kritisieren. Und damit ist noch lange nicht Schluss. Heute weiß Marie: Wenn man dann endlich schwanger ist, geht das Abenteuer erst richtig los!

Ein Podcast wie ein Leitfaden durch den Informations- und Emotionsdschungel beim Kinderwunsch, in der Schwangerschaft und bei den ersten Schritten als Newly Mom. Ein Herzensprojekt von Marie, um ein wenig Unterstützung, Aufklärung und Zuversicht verbreiten zu können. Einfach ein Podcast, wie ihn Marie zu Beginn ihrer Kinderwunschreise gerne gehört hätte.
