Lydia Tuaiti (@ifoundlydia) on Being 'Lydia', Stepping into Stepparenthood, Running for Mental Health, HG, PND, Prioritising Culture, and Actually Breathing Properly

from Why Do You Parent Like That? · host Abbey Suyker-Harrison and Charlotte Kells Robertson

DECEMBER! DECK THE HALLS! LISTEN TO THIS GEM OF A HUMAN BEING! Lydia Tuaiti (@ifoundlydia) is the coolest. She's fun, she's a girls girl, she is reflective, and self-aware, and all-round just the coolest. I am so honoured that she was happy to sit down with me and talk about her experience of parenthood (including stepparenthood). This is a perspective I have wanted to share on the podcast for a long time, but I wanted to make sure I was being careful with all parties involved. Lydia is the most respectful, caring, considered lady and I love the way she talks about her role in her family. You can find her instagram here and her tiktok here! She is one of my favourite follows on the internet, so please go show her some love! Tell her we sent you! There will be one more main episode, and probably one more Parenting is Political episode, before the end of the year. The rest will be funnnnnny/silly/solo/a bit about me episodes! I hope that you like those episodes too. I guess we'll find out!  Join the Why Do You Chat Like That FB group here!
