Lady, today is a powerful episode with an amazing woman. In today’s episode, Dr. Dom and Terri are joined by Opal Franklin who shares with us part of her journey as a transracial adoptee. Her complex and nuanced journey is unique while still having threads of commonalities with other multicultural and/or adoptive families. Opal’s story is one in which you will walk away learning something new and feel empowered to engage with others about their origin story.

Quote of the Day:
"There is nothing more delightful
Then you, My Love.
Even though you do not think so,
I hold you closer
Than anything else
That has entered my life."
-F.S. Yousaf
