What a season finale! I am still reeling from the whole thing and feel I need to just quickly go over it all to process what I’ve just seen at Sìleas and Seumas’ renewal of vows.
 
All seemed to be going to plan and like any good showstopper – the whole ensemble were present, every one of them looking stunning and glam. Then out of the blue Sìleas fixed Seumas with a long, hard stare, and didn’t mince her words…”Seumas MacSuain, tha mi ag iarraidh sgaradh pòsaidh”….i.e  Sileas wants a divorce.

Episode 3 has just come to a close with a super charged scene at the end ….The electricity comes back on and Seumas sees Rory in a new light ….literally… and finally remembers who left him for dead on the mill floor.

Well I am just literally putting away my smelling salts and coming back to earth after that end of episode bomb shell.
 
Episode 2 of ‘An Clò Mòr’ has just come to a glorious end and I loved every minute of it. Handsome Irish stranger Rory has finally told Sìleas who he really is, Sìleas is gobsmacked and then suddenly, as if on cue, the whole village is plunged into darkness

The credits are still rolling on episode 1 and we’re already right back into the heady world of ‘An Clò Mòr’….I make no apologies for the fact that I’m utterly obsessed with fashion, so this episode with the ossibility of landing an American deal, the glam squad arriving from New York and yes we’ve got to mention it folks…Sìleas’ blue dress and camel mohair coat…gave me serious wardrobe envy. What’s not to like! A banger of a season 2 opener ….

How To Use Your Voice Workshop: In July 2022, we had the amazing opportunity to present at the Catalyst Foundation’s Vietnam Culture Camp that hosts families across the US who have adopted from Vietnam. 
Our workshop for adoptees aged 10-17 focused on the way in which you can empower yourself by using your voice to speak about your story. At Whatever Next?, we believe that using your voice is the key to changing dominating narratives in adoption. 
We asked campers and counsellors, who are all adoptees, to do a short voice recording with us about anything that they had on their minds. 
We hope you enjoy this episode that celebrates the community that has been built around the Catalyst Foundation and the friendships and memories that it has brought with it.

In this episode we take a deep dive into Hannah’s dissertation about online adoptee spaces, specifically Facebook Groups. Jo and Addie ask her questions about why she chose that topic, what she learned along the way, and how her own experience as an adoptee impacted her academic writing.
