"I consider myself to be on the far end of the scale of good reunions."- Damon Davis
Every search and reunion story is unique, and Damon Davis knows this well. More than 150 adoptees have shared their stories on his popular "Who Am I Really? Podcast" and his own search and reunion stories (plural) made our hearts swell (you'll definitely want to read his memoir and be prepared for a good, ugly cry).
Damon was raised by two Black parents and for most of his life he had no desire to search for his biological family. The birth of his son, Seth, changed that.
Taking two different search and reunion paths with each birth parent - formal and more informal - Damon's journey underscores for adoptees the importance of searching intentionally for the right reasons at the right time, caring for ourselves emotionally throughout the process, and if a reunion is an outcome, the beauty that can come from holding those precious initial meetings sacred as a potential relationship evolves.
AND in this conversation, we turn the tables on Damon and get his official answer to his own million dollar question, "Who Am I Really?".
