About me
Personally: I am a 50 something mum of four (Now adults, thankfully). I share my home with my partner, two dogs, two cats and some fish (don’t ask). I have a love for nature and wildlife and my aspiration for my next life incarnation is to follow in David Attenboroughs footsteps (Who wouldn’t? What a treasure) I am spiritual, but not religious and eclectic in my outlook. It’s all about what sits well within my mind, body and soul.
My Identity: In early 2013 I had a total life shift. Up to that point I identified as a straight, somewhat non cis gender woman. Now, I identify as gender fluid and gay. No one, not even me, expected I would be gay in my older years.. Funny how life turns out.
I am also an adoptee of the forced adoption era in the UK (1949 - 1975) Although I have no training in adoptee therapy I certainly do have life long experience including coming out of the fog (adoptee speak) searching for and meeting biological family.
If you were an adopted/relinquished child in any way. I can help you navigate your world through the eyes of the adoptee.
