S2 E12 Life Discussions With My Dad
Show Notes

For this instalment I'm joined by my Dad, John Harvey to talk about parenthood and life.
We look a bit more into my beginnings and what drove a decision for my parents to pack up life in Australia and take us to live in the UK for 5 years,  how they saw that impact me and help create the person I now am.

Sometimes we don't fully grip and understand parts of out childhood until we become parents ourselves, giving us a chance to understand what our folks went through raising us. Along with this we start to look at the people who raised us as friends and equals as we mature into parents and adults ourselves.

It's a fine art to let your kids grow and mature with your guidance but also knowing when to step back and let them work things out for themselves without interfering too much. Dad shares some great advice on this as well as sharing how to keep us close while letting us be ourselves.

I'm glad I got a chance to sit down and have a chat with my Dad as I still keep learning from him, even from this conversation.
