Listen "Aiko's Story"
Episode Synopsis
In this week's episode of 'The One Left Behind,' I'm thrilled to share the inspiring and deeply moving story of Aiko, a tech professional living in Belgium, who has been on a life-altering journey to reconnect with his birth mother. From discovering his roots at the House of Mary Villa orphanage in the Philippines to navigating the intricate web of adoption, Aiko shares his experiences of growing up adopted, reconnecting through social media, and finally meeting his birth family. Aiko reflects on the remarkable support of his adoptive parents, the emotional reunion with his birth mother Yasmin in California, and his newfound connection with siblings from different parts of the world. Join me as we explore themes of identity, family, and the enduring power of love. This episode is a testament to the transformative impact of meaningful connections and the beautiful complexities of adoption.
