23 - Melissa on being a mother of 8, parenting a transgender child & prioritising your mental health
Talia & Ebony were joined by the phenomenal Melissa Skeene all the way from Toronto Canada!
Melissa is a busy mother of 8, an entrepreneur and an all-round amazing human being, who leads with so much integrity and heart.
During this conversation, we delve into the nuanced experience of parenting many different children at different ages and stages of life. As well as the importance of prioritising one-on-one time with each child, whilst also looking after your own mental health as a parent.
Melissa gives some great tips on managing such complexities, whilst staying as grounded and balanced through life changes. Melissa is also the proud mother of a transgender child and she takes us through and her families experience navigating what can often be a very complex and transitional time. She shares many incredible insights and amazing ways she handled her child’s transition.
This episode is an inspiring and wonderful conversation highlighting the importance in listening to your child’s needs despite societal norms.
