BREAK THE CHAINS, FIND YOUR FLAME: Break the Chains, Find Your Flame is a complimentary podcast to the Promethean Project, a nonprofit wellness center. Our goal is to break the chains that bind, and help others find their potential/flame. Our Podcast highlights these same ideals and thoughts, and serves to bring insightful interviews from people who have broken free, and live to their fullest potential.
Episode 209: Dr. Hollee McGinnis
The indomitable Dr. Hollee McGinnis is on the podcast today! Many of you have definitely heard of Hollee and her immense contributions to the adoptee community both academically as a scholar and as a community builder which includes starting the adoptee-centric organization, Also Known As, over 25 years ago. Today we get to talk about some deeply personal topics to Hollee, which of course includes community building, but we also discuss how Hollee’s perspective on adoption has changed over the years. Hollee shares how sometimes, who we see as the “high-performing adoptees” may be trying to outwork some internal struggles. Make sure you stick around until the end of the show as Hollee shares a poem she wrote about kimchi and how her breast cancer diagnosis lead her to a rediscovery of Korean food, this time as a cook!
