Last January, a 28 year old donor conceived woman named Ally discovered the truth about her genetic origins after taking an Ancestry DNA test. Just a few weeks later, she started a podcast called Half of Me to process her emotions, and in doing so, she began a journey that has changed her life.

You can find Half of Me on every major podcasting platform, and at halfofmepodcast.com
