Season 3, Episode 12: Shawyn Lee

Navigating multiple identities like being queer and a Korean adoptee has been interesting, says Shawyn Lee, 41. “We’re quick to throw people in boxes,” says the Hermantown, Minn., resident. But the labels aren’t always accurate and don’t allow people full visibility. In this episode, Lee talks about the complexity of identity, relationships, owning up to your truths and why adoptee voices matter.
