Today’s episode is a very special episode for obvious reasons. Today my guest is my very own birth mother Trina.  I know this is an episode everyone’s been waiting for and believe me, these conversations have been priceless for me.

This week we visit with my other sister Candace. She and I spoke the most initially and throughout the first week.  I love the difference of her perspective. I'm still amazed at how much I've learned from these discussions even two years after meeting and realizing we've not discussed already.

Today we visit with one of my half sisters and hear the story of my first reaching out from their perspective. It’s funny because we connected over two years ago but some of these questions have yet to be asked so I’m grateful for this opportunity to visit with my siblings and learn more about what this was like for them.  I hope you enjoy Brandie’s interview!

Although it was a hard conversation, I took the plunge and went to my Mom's home to confront her and my Dad about the knowledge I recently learned.  What would I say? How do I handle this conversation?  Where do we go from here? How do I process a secret that's been kept from me for so long?
