The First Step – Exploring Adoption
Update: 2025-09-30
Description
Welcome to episode 27 of the You Can Adopt Podcast.
Host Isma Almas – comedian, writer, and adoptive mum – speaks with Michelle and Laura, a same-sex couple raising their two adopted daughters. Their journey began nearly seven years ago with a simple Google search, and they now share what they’ve learned along the way.
They discuss the early stages of adoption: from initial research and enquiry, to building confidence and managing uncertainty. With warmth and honesty, Michelle and Laura reflect on emotional highs, challenges, and the support they received, helping to demystify those first steps.
Many people delay adoption, believing they need all the answers. This episode shows that curiosity is enough to begin. An enquiry isn’t a commitment – it’s just a conversation. Whether you’re exploring or ready to move forward, you’ll find practical insight, encouragement, and advice.
