Interview with Aliyah Santos, a Mixed Race Domestic Adoptee

On Episode 8 of the Adoptee Thoughts Podcast, Aliyah, and host, Melissa Guida-Richards discuss her experience growing up in a predominantly white community, racism, and her experience working in foster care after seeing the flaws in the system. Aliyah Santos is a TRA, writer, podcaster, and single mother of 4. After finally leaving the fog at the age of 30, Aliyah set out to heal the trauma of growing up adopted in an abusive home through world travel with her kids. Now she's made a temporary home for herself and her family in Morocco and podcasts about traveling and breaking cycles of trauma. Her podcast is 4 Kids & Me Overseas.
