It's International Women's Day & this episode is about the strength of women today, the courage of the women in our past and the protection of the women of the future.
It's about being born in Bessborough Mother and Baby Home, the culture of silence that prevents connection and healing and how way the universe brought two women together.
I'm joined by Nessa Hurley and Anne O'Connell as they share the gratitude they have to the woman who gave birth to them, the happiness they felt as children in their adoptive families and how becoming mothers themselves sparked a journey to need to find out more about who they are.
What they didn't expect to find out, was that they had already found each other.
