In this milestone episode, the hosts of Family Twist take a heartfelt, unfiltered look back on three years of storytelling, 150 episodes, and the ever-evolving journey of uncovering and healing from family secrets.

Family Is Complicated And We’re Not Done Talking About It

What began as a podcast to share one adoptee’s story has blossomed into a powerful platform amplifying voices from the adoption, donor-conceived, NPE (Not Parent Expected), and DNA discovery communities. With vulnerability, wit, and unwavering honesty, the hosts explore:

Why “family secrets are the ultimate plot twist” remains their most resonant theme

  • The ongoing emotional toll of being someone’s secret—and the healing that comes from being acknowledged
  • How guest stories have stirred deep empathy and fierce protectiveness
  • The complicated feelings around birth family rejection, even years after reunion
  • Why ethnic identity, once a background detail, now feels like a source of rooted pride
  • Evolving perspectives on adoption, kinship care, and what family should mean
  • Behind-the-scenes podcasting challenges: guest droughts, unexpected breakthroughs, and learning to let the story unfold in real time
  • Aspirations for a book, live events, and collaborations that blend heartbreak with humor

This episode isn’t just a reflection—it’s a recommitment. To the community. To truth-telling. To showing up, every week, with an open heart.

Whether you've been with the podcast since episode one or you're just discovering it now, this episode offers a deeply moving, occasionally hilarious, and always honest window into why stories like these matter—and why they need to be told.
