The Missing Piece: Identity, Belonging & Transracial Adoption

What does it really mean to help an adopted child feel like they truly belong?

In this powerful episode of Ultimate Potential, we sit down with therapist and Telos Executive Director, Reggie Wilson, who brings nearly three decades of experience working with youth and families.

Together, we explore the unique challenges of transracial adoption, why the phrase "I don't see color" can unintentionally create distance, and how parents can foster deeper connection by embracing a child's identity, culture, and lived experience.

Reggie shares practical wisdom, moving stories, and hopeful guidance for adoptive families navigating attachment, belonging, and the lifelong journey of helping children feel fully seen, understood, and loved.
