117. A Sister's Search for Hope, Peace and Ashley Loring Heavyrunner with Kimberly Loring
Ashley Loring Heavyrunner was last seen on a June 2017 night near Browning, Montana. Ashley was 20 years old and an aspiring environmental scientist who was noted for her intelligence, her love of animals, her infectious humor and her communication skills. After Ashley broke up with her first love and her grandfather died, her sister, Kimberly Loring, says she fell on hard times and into a bad crowd. The stories of the people she had been spending time with that day on the Blackfeet Reservation left more questions than answers in her mysterious disappearance.

115. Adopted and Searching for the Arms that Once Held Me with Janet Sherlund
Janet Sherlund was adopted as a child and is grateful for her new parents. But she also recognizes the trauma that comes from being pulled away from your family of origin, your history and move and talk like you. In some ways, she felt that she was being painted on like a canvas, turned into the image of others and not who she really was. After being given away by her parents, she was never secure in the fact that her adopted parents would not do the same. Janet joins me to talk about the trauma of adoption, the loss of belonging and society finding a better way to help the children who are still searching for the arms that once held them.Contact me at [email protected] out the Silver Linings Handbook website at:https://silverliningshandbook.com/Check out our Patreon to support the show at:https://www.patreon.com/thesilverliningshandbookJoin our Facebook Group at:https://www.facebook.com/groups/1361159947820623Visit the Silver Linings Handbook store to support the podcast at:https://www.bonfire.com/store/the-silver-linings-handbook-podcast-store/To read our Trime Cime Times Substack:https://truecrimemessenger.substack.comThe Silver Linjngs Handbook podcast is a part of the ART19 network.
