About this episode

Anne-Grete shares her journey of adoption, identity, and advocacy in Norway.

Born in London and adopted from Norway in 1967, Anne-Grete spent much of her life moving around the world before settling in Norway, where she eventually began exploring the deeper impact of adoption on her identity and sense of belonging. Her journey through reunion, reconnection with biological family, and involvement with Adopterte helped her come out of the fog and become an advocate for adoption awareness and adoptee support in Norway.
