Reclaiming Our Potent Becoming Pt 2: Donor Conceived Awareness and Weaving Wholeness | Meg Thomas
Welcome back to the second part of an extremely vulnerable conversation in which Meghan "Meg" Thomas - podcast hostess, and breathwork teacher - talks to KJ about the discovery that she is donor-conceived. She opens up about her journey of reclamation now that she has learned the truth.
Meg shares what happened once she decided to "Click Connect" after submitting her DNA into 23 and Me, which includes meeting half-siblings. She began leaning into curiosities such as Genetic Mirroring and embracing the potency and impact of unearthing her astonishing story.
Compassionate Considerations
🍃 When in a discovery journey feelings of shame, unworthiness, and insecurity may rise. How do you issue tender care in these moments?
🍃 Words have power. Their intentionality informs our ability to remain open, transparent, and present.
🍃 To stay in a relationship with people who have hurt us means finding ways of shifting toward forgiveness.
🍃 Self Compassion is sitting IN the feelings, not avoiding them.
April 27th is International Donor Conception Awareness Day
