31. Being a father to eight kids from five different countries: Becoming a foster parent, with my dad, Mike O'Hara

A very special episode for you today!I’ve been trying to get my dad on the podcast for ages, and finally, here he is! Having heard my mum’s perspective of fostering, lots of you have been interested to hear from my dad, for his take on parenting so many kids from all these different countries. My dad has always been a little more private when it comes to sharing his story or being on Instagram, so it came as an amazing surprise this week that he was felt ready and keen to talk to me for this episode. It's another very personal one for me and I share some family updates about Mez's brother at the beginning. Talking to my dad made me feel a LOT. I always knew he would have some beautiful insights to share, and he didn't disappoint. I hope you enjoy the realness he brings today.JazTo buy a t-shirt or hoodie:https://theworldwidetribeshop.com/To follow us on socials:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/theworldwidetribe/Facebook: https:///www.facebook.com/theworldwidetribe/To support this podcast: https://www.patreon.com/theworldwidetribeSupport the show (https://www.justgiving.com/prism-worldwidetribe) Hosted on Acast.
