31 Lisa Ayton
<p dir="ltr">Episode 31 | Lisa Ayton</p> <p dir="ltr">Born in Toronto, Ontario in 1965, Lisa always knew she was adopted. It wasn't until age 56 when she read the book "Attached" about attachment styles and subsequently "The Primal Wound" that she began to make sense of a life long nagging feeling "What is wrong with me?" From books, to therapy, breathwork and plant medicine, Lisa is here to share her adoption story & healing experience. </p> <p dir="ltr"> ______________________________________________________________________</p> <p dir="ltr">Connect with Lisa</p> <p dir="ltr">IG: <a href= "https://www.instagram.com/b.c.gal/">https://www.instagram.com/b.c.gal/</a> </p> <p dir="ltr">Email: <a href= "mailto:lisaayton@shaw.ca">lisaayton@shaw.ca</a> __________________________________________________________________________________</p> <p dir="ltr">Connect with Kristal</p> <p dir="ltr">Website: <a href= "https://kristalparke.net/">https://kristalparke.net/</a></p> <p dir="ltr">Merch | Voices Collection: <a href= "https://kristalparke.net/merch/">https://kristalparke.net/merch/</a></p> <p dir="ltr">Email: <a href= "mailto:kristal@becauseshesadopted.com">kristal@becauseshesadopted.com</a></p> <p dir="ltr">Socials:</p> <p dir="ltr">@kristalparkeofficial</p> <p dir="ltr">Instagram: <a href= "https://www.instagram.com/kristalparkeofficial/">https://www.instagram.com/kristalparkeofficial/</a></p> <p dir="ltr">Youtube: <a href= "https://www.youtube.com/@KristalParkeOfficial">https://www.youtube.com/@KristalParkeOfficial</a></p> <p dir="ltr">TikTok: <a href= "https://www.tiktok.com/@kristalparkeofficial">https://www.tiktok.com/@kristalparkeofficial</a></p> <p dir="ltr">Support the Show<br /> If this conversation resonated with you, please subscribe, rate, and share the podcast to help more people discover these powerful stories of healing and identity.</p> <p> </p>

30 Chris Williams
<p dir="ltr">Episode 30 | Chris Williams</p> <p dir="ltr">Chris Williams is a stand-up comedian and producer from Los Angeles, as well as the proud owner of a Chihuahua mix named Daunte. At the time of this recording, Daunte had four legs. Thanks to an unfortunate accident in Canada, he's now rocking three. The good news: Daunte has absolutely nothing to do with this podcast episode, but it felt important to mention. More importantly, Daunte is thriving.</p> <p dir="ltr">Much like Daunte, audiences are drawn to Chris's intelligent, relatable, and irreverent style of comedy. His material is rooted in his own life experiences, including his adoption story—though Chris prefers to say he is "thrifted."</p> <p dir="ltr"> ______________________________________________________________________</p> <p dir="ltr">Connect with Chris</p> <p dir="ltr">Email: <a href= "mailto:chris@crwspeaks.com">chris@crwspeaks.com</a> </p> <p dir="ltr">Website: <a href= "https://crwspeaks.com/">https://crwspeaks.com/</a> </p> <p dir="ltr">Socials: @crwspeaks</p> <p dir="ltr"> __________________________________________________________________________________</p> <p dir="ltr">Connect with Kristal</p> <p dir="ltr">Website: <a href= "https://kristalparke.net/">https://kristalparke.net/</a></p> <p dir="ltr">Merch | Voices Collection: <a href= "https://kristalparke.net/merch/">https://kristalparke.net/merch/</a></p> <p dir="ltr">Email: <a href= "mailto:kristal@becauseshesadopted.com">kristal@becauseshesadopted.com</a></p> <p dir="ltr">Socials:</p> <p dir="ltr">@kristalparkeofficial</p> <p dir="ltr">Instagram: <a href= "https://www.instagram.com/kristalparkeofficial/">https://www.instagram.com/kristalparkeofficial/</a></p> <p dir="ltr">Youtube: <a href= "https://www.youtube.com/@KristalParkeOfficial">https://www.youtube.com/@KristalParkeOfficial</a></p> <p dir="ltr">TikTok: <a href= "https://www.tiktok.com/@kristalparkeofficial">https://www.tiktok.com/@kristalparkeofficial</a></p> <p dir="ltr">Support the Show<br /> If this conversation resonated with you, please subscribe, rate, and share the podcast to help more people discover these powerful stories of healing and identity.</p> <p> </p>

<p dir="ltr">Episode 28 Pt.2 | Dr.Alana Berg ND </p> <p dir="ltr">Dr. Alana Berg, ND is an author, speaker, mother, Naturopathic Physician, and self-described healing facilitator. She has been practicing full time as a Naturopathic Doctor since graduating in 2005 from the Canadian College of Naturopathic Medicine.</p> <p dir="ltr">Since graduation, she has continually embarked on the journey of developing and honing her professional skills having achieved certification by her College of Naturopathic Physicians of British Columbia in: chelation, acupuncture, IV therapy, pharmacology, and ozone. As well, she has trained in several therapies like neural therapy, trigger point injections, and Bodytalk therapy to name a few. Other expertise has been gained directly from working with other doctors and practitioners from the United States, across Western Canada, Mexico and Spain, in order to fully dive into the healing arts.</p> <p dir="ltr">She has enjoyed living and working in Kelowna, BC, since 2006 with her beautiful family, where she owns a successful naturopathic practice, Axiom Health Clinic. She has a general naturopathic family practice, with a special interest in Lyme disease and chronic infections, detoxification and environmental medicine, digestive conditions, auto-immune diseases, men's and women's health, and mind-body medicine.</p> <p dir="ltr">She also had to navigate her own journey of healing, after a diagnosis of Multiple Sclerosis in 2009, which ultimately led her to find her own cure. That journey inspired her to write a book, called The Courageous Cure, to share her story and to empower others to overcome their own health challenges as well.</p> <p dir="ltr">Connect with Dr. Alana Berg<br /> Social Media: @dralanaberg (Instagram, Facebook, Twitter, YouTube)<br /> Email: <a href= "mailto:info@dralanaberg.com">info@dralanaberg.com</a><br /> Website: <a href= "https://dralanaberg.com/">https://dralanaberg.com</a></p> <p dir="ltr">Connect with Kristal Parke<br /> Email: <a href= "mailto:kristal@becauseshesadopted.com">kristal@becauseshesadopted.com</a><br /> Website: <a href= "https://kristalparke.net/">https://kristalparke.net<br /></a>Merch | Voices Collection: <a href= "https://kristalparke.net/merch/">https://kristalparke.net/merch/<br /> </a> Instagram: <a href= "https://www.instagram.com/kristalparkeofficial/">https://www.instagram.com/kristalparkeofficial/<br /> </a> YouTube: <a href= "https://www.youtube.com/@KristalParkeOfficial">https://www.youtube.com/@KristalParkeOfficial</a></p> <p dir="ltr">Support the Show<br /> If this conversation resonated with you, please subscribe, rate, and share the podcast to help more people discover these powerful stories of healing and identity.</p> <p> </p>
