Want to make a big impact? A donation of $2,500 - $10,000 could fully fund a Fog Lift event, making it free for all participants. (The exact amount depends on travel costs - as a Florida-based filmmaker, Autumn can minimize expenses when events are within driving distance and lodging is provided.) If you're interested in sponsoring a Fog Lift event, please contact us to discuss the details and locations, and lets lift this burden! info@reckoningwiththeprimalwound.com

Fog Lift Events: Building a Community

In 2023, Kindermuse Productions launched Fog Lift Events—a transformative initiative designed to address the emotional complexities of adoption. The acronym FOG stands for Fear, Obligation, and Guilt/Grief, and our mission is to help individuals lift these burdens in a supportive, peer-driven environment. These events create a safe space for adoptees, birth/first parents, and adoptive parents to share their stories, engage in healing activities, and foster a sense of belonging.

Now, we’re broadening our reach to include anyone grappling with a primary wound—feelings of non-being, identity struggles, or questions about the human cost of adoption. Whether you’re directly connected to adoption or simply curious to learn more, Fog Lift Events are for you. Our goal is to guide participants from confusion to confidence by fostering empathy, connection, and ongoing support in a judgment-free space.

Join us in Spring 2026 as we bring Fog Lift Events to more international locations. Let’s lift the fog together and build a stronger, more understanding community.
