What happens when your child’s race isn’t your own?
In this raw and eye-opening episode, we explore the unspoken challenges of parenting across racial lines.
Joined by Sarah Wood, a fellow white mum raising mixed-race children, we dive into the complex realities of navigating identity, having tough conversations, and confronting the biases that society (and sometimes we) hold.
This isn’t about having all the answers - it’s about learning, listening, and showing up for our children in ways that truly honour who they are.
Whether you’re parenting across race or simply want to raise more empathetic, aware kids, this episode will challenge what you think you know - and leave you with powerful takeaways you can start using today.
With love, Ivana & Yaw
