Name & age: Azalea 33
Kids: Tom, 6 and Z, 4
How did you end up doing gentle parenting?
It was intuitive.
What does being a woke mama mean to you?
I see through all the capitalist patriarchal embedded behaviors.
Most awesome moment so far?
Every day has a most awesome moment!
Biggest struggle so far? How do you cope with stressful moments?
Biggest struggle yet is sibling rivalry! Everyday they fight! I’ve developed a bunch of coping mechanisms.
I live a good support system whether it’s in the flesh or online.
How do you juggle work with gentle parenting?
I’m staying home with the kiddos for as long as I can muster/manifest it… which is no easy feat as a single mama.
Any advice you would give to new mums?
Take them outside! Anytime it gets hard from newborns to big kids, take them outside.
