1. Elliott Rae - Fatherhood and Equal Parenting

Everyone knows that being a new Mum can be tough - really tough. But the experience of Dads is less commonly discussed. Elliott Rae is Founder of MusicFootballFatherhood, a support forum for Dads. He is also the host of the DaddyDebates podcast and the author of best-seller, “Dad - Untold stories of fatherhood, love, mental health and masculinity. We discuss Dads' mental health (can Dads get postnatal depression?), Elliott's experience of being a black father in the UK, how Dads are more involved with their kids and do more house work than ever before .. and what needs to change for truly equal parenting to become the norm.
