Brad is a Gen-X adoptee from the baby scoop era who grew up in New Jersey in the '70s and '80s. His adopters were wealthy, and his experience as a young child was great. However, he went on to experience many negative life events as a result of unresolved maternal separation trauma, and it wasn’t until 10 years ago that he connected the dots and started coming out of the fog.

He started advocating for adoptee voices on Twitter during the pandemic and switched to TikTok in late 2023, where he educates about adoption abolition, advocates for safe external care for children in need, and cautions influencers about the dangers of child exploitation on social media, especially when their children have already experienced maternal separation trauma.

Mind Your Own Karma–The Adoption Chronicles Podcast educates listeners on the realities of adoption through the stories of adoptees, birth parents, and adoptive parents. We delve into their journeys, exploring identity, the emotional impacts of adoption, and the complexities that are involved when a child is removed from their biology.

We also tackle tough topics like transracial adoption and adoption ethics, featuring experts and advocates. By sharing these diverse perspectives we hope to not only educate the world, but also give ⁠⁠⁠⁠hope and healing⁠⁠⁠⁠ to those deeply affected by adoption trauma.

***This podcast's mission is on adoption education. If you have an expertise that you think would be beneficial to anyone touched by adoption and would like to be on the podcast, get in touch with me.
