Help! I’m a Parent | Bunmi Laditan
We had such a wonderful, real talk with Bunmi Laditan... aka the woman behind 'The Honest Toddler'.
Her remarkable Journey began young:
*We talk about the internal split she felt as an immigrant and a 1st generation American.
*Bunmi shares how for a period of time she was a homeless teenager.
*She went on to get married very young and eventually would become Jewish...Learning the traditions and teaching her children.
*When her marriage ended she found herself lost and searching once again.
*She felt her career success, but was feeling very lost personally.
*Bunmi talks about discovering her new self as she has progressed through life.
*Her desire to be a part of a tribe (we all want this!)
*What it means to wander and how that leads to self discovery
*We talk about her writing and how she was inspired to write her latest book! It is called "HELP ME GOD, I’M A PARENT"... Honest Prayers for Hectic Days and Endless Nights.
To all weary parents out there you are not alone on this journey!
**Enjoy being inspired by Bunmi's journey-She is heart and humor**
