This week’s very special guest is my mum, Oeda O’Hara.

Together we talk about her experience of fostering three teenage boys from Eritrea, Afghanistan and Sudan and explore what it means to be part of a real life global family. 

This journey began for us four years ago, almost to the day, when my parents had just been accepted to foster. When a young Eritrean boy entered the UK, hiding underneath the Eurotunnel train, he was placed with my family and became my little brother. 

Four years on and Mez is the first of three new little brothers who have taken us on a journey of love, laughter, acceptance, compassion and growth. 

In this episode we discuss race, sexuality, teenagers, trauma and the true meaning of the word family.
