In this episode of everymum the podcast season 2, sponsored by WaterWipes, we have a much needed honest conversation about Raising our children without Racism with Santis O’Garro @thecaribbeandub

Born in Montserrat, Santis moved to Ireland when she was a young child in the 90’s with her family. and realised that this country saw her skin colour as something different, and for some, it was an invitation for racist abuse.

Now in her 30’s and raising 2 children as a single parent in Dublin, she is a role model of strength, courage, compassion and empowerment as she speaks openly about the value of raising our kids in a world without racism, about how she took control over her life and her happiness, about how she addressed her mental health challenges and her financial security by becoming Debt-Free.

Santis’s honest experience is essential listening. Ending discrimination starts in our homes, and in the intentions, actions and beliefs of parents. Our children are watching and so at everymum we are committed to doing our best to listen, to educate ourselves, to share more diverse experiences of motherhood and to raise without racism.
