Michele Sickler was born and relinquished on Staten Island, NY in 1962. She was placed with her adoptive family at 3 weeks of age after being in foster care. She grew up in Queens, NY. Michele found her natural family almost 13 years ago, when she was 48. At that time, she found out her mother was African American, which wasn't disclosed in her adoption papers. She describes her reunion as difficult, as many adoptees do. Her natural mother died in 2015. She has been married for almost 40 years and has 4 adult children and 1 granddaughter. Thank you, Michelle, for joining us on Mind Your Own Karma!

Due to the LONG-LASTING EMOTIONAL FALLOUT that can be part of adoption, I highly support the GENTLE HEALING SUPPORT of SMGI: Somatic Mindful Guided Imagery. For more information on this groundbreaking and highly successful method, go to https://www.somatichealingjourneys.com
Please seek professional help if you find yourself struggling with some of the realizations that you may experience during this episode.
