Leigh Hart: Co-parenting, horse-bites and harnessing humour

Join Jenny and Dayna for a heartwarming conversation with New Zealand entertainer, funny guy, dad, entrepreneur and the man behind the perfect Wakachangi beer and chip combo, Leigh Hart.  In this episode, we dive into Leigh’s journey as a dad to two kids, the lessons he’s carried through from his intrepid childhood and how he’s created his own unique, inimitable role of ‘dad’ in his youngsters’ lives.  From keeping humour at the centre of family life, to building up those all-important muscles of patience, Leigh lets us into his fatherhood journey which like most has had its fair share of ups and downs.  With Jenny’s guidance, we also touch on the challenges of co-parenting and navigating separation with kids in tow. Leigh reflects on building empathy and resilience in children, all while maintaining a strong, loving relationship with them.  Parents We’ve Met is brought to you by Parenting Place – a charity with a heart for New Zealand families.
