If you’re an adopted person, welcome

You’ve landed in a place you may well have been searching for all your life.

We each have our own adoption story. For some of you, you may have been adopted in an era of closed adoption, perhaps you knew you were adopted from a young age. Maybe your story is that you’ve only just discovered you’re adopted. Maybe you have an open relationship with both biological parents.

Whatever your story and however the dynamics of your adoption plays out in your life, the experience of being an adoptee can impact your ability to be your true Self, feel worthy of the ‘good’, experience closeness in relationships, trust life and let yourself be happy.

This is a place where you can begin to understand how your adoption experience has shaped your life.

A place where you can heal and flourish with the support and practical resources you need. Perhaps most importantly, a place where you can enjoy a sense of belonging and connection with those of the same ‘ilk’.

(Myilk was the previous brand name, because it evoked a sense of belonging and connection. Although the brand name has now been retired the sentiment behind it very much remains.)

Let’s start this journey together.

Change the landscape of your life

If you’re looking to evolve and flourish beyond any confines of your adoptive experience, this is the place for you. Even if your adoption has been happy and positive, it’s normal to have questions, or want to make meaning of this life-changing event. I support you to:

• Understand the impact of your adoption

• Accept who you currently are

• Take responsibility – owning patterns, behaviours and reactions instead of blaming (adoption, others, God … whoever!)

• Re-connect with your authentic Self, learning resourceful ways of living to ‘rewrite and rewire’ your positive, empowering new story

• Get to know and strengthen your authentic Self

 Here’s what I offer adopted people…

• Validation and acknowledgement of an early experience that’s taken your life down a different trajectory than others

• An understanding of how your adoptive experience has shaped the stories you tell yourself, the lenses you view yourself and your life through

• A community where you can join others who are learning and growing, and receive and give each other support

• A map of the developmental and transformational process

• The latest scientific and research based tools and resources to enhance your development and success
