About this listen
In this episode of the 'Conversations with Your Chinese Auntie podcast, I talk with Anna Jinja, an adoptee from Seoul, Korea, who grew up in Iowa. Anna also hosts her own podcast focusing on adoption and foster care stories, and has recently published her debut novel, 'Adopting Grace'.
We discuss Anna's experiences with adoption, her journey towards self-acceptance, and the importance of community. The conversation also touches on the complexities of identity and belonging and the transformative power of art and storytelling.
