Cate & Ty are back with Kristina as she continues to recount her unbelievable reunion story with her birth mother. From awkward first meetings, to restrictive visitation rules, and her determined efforts to maintain contact with her birth mom in secret, Kristina takes us all on an emotional rollercoaster. In the end, a change in environment doesn't automatically bring happiness. Kristina reflects on the shock of moving from a privileged upbringing to living with five younger siblings, her decision to reconnect with her adoptive parents, and the complex feelings of not fully fitting in either family.Check out Kristina on Tiktok @kristinarichie and her newest book Unraveling Adoption: Weaving Between Two Worlds wherever books are sold!Thank you to our sponsors!Me Undies: Visit MeUndies.com/Breakitdown and use code BREAKITDOWN to get up to 50% off.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
