Leah’s Story | Adopted from China, Growing Up in Canada and Life in the USA
Leah Sutterlin was adopted from China as a baby and raised in rural Canada alongside two younger sisters who were also adopted from China.
In this episode of I’m Adopted: The Podcast, Leah reflects on growing up in a family where adoption was openly talked about, that relationship with her sisters, and the questions around identity and trying to understand more about those beginnings.
She also shares how her own story eventually led her into adoption advocacy and storytelling, including her current work with the National Council For Adoption, as well as becoming a co-author of It’s Okay to Talk About Adoption.
Leah speaks openly about holding gratitude and grief at the same time, finding her own sense of identity, and why she believes every adoptee’s experience deserves to be heard.

Ethan’s Story | Adopted from China to the USA
Ethan Cesena was adopted from China at four and a half years old and raised in America. For much of his life, adoption was a word others used to describe him, but for Ethan it also brought questions about identity, family, culture, and where he came from. In April 2026, he returned to China with 17 other Chinese adoptees to learn more about his heritage and experience the country in a different way. In this episode, Ethan shares his story, what it was like growing up adopted, the questions he has carried over the years, and what returning to China meant to him.
