Summary

What are the long term effects of adoption?

Megan was adopted at birth into a family where she felt loved and cared for.  But from a very young age Megan was acutely aware that her situation was different. She knew her life had involved a transaction and her younger self was stuck in trying to understand what that meant. What was she worth?  Did she offer value to her parents?  And, like so many of us, Megan spent a lifetime not seeing her own value and allowing others to dictate her worth.  You can find Megan at https://www.instagram.com/officialmeganhenry/
