[093] THE SUSTAINABLE(ISH) GUIDE TO GREEN PARENTING – YOUR QUESTIONS ANSWERED!

GAH! I think this episode might actually be one of the most terrifying ones (for me!) yet...

What could be so terrifying?
Am I interviewing Greta? Or Sir David Attenborough?
Sadly no. I'm actually interviewing myself. About book number two - The Sustainable(ish) Guide to Green Parenting - which is out on March 18th. I was going to say that I'm equal parts terrified and excited, but that would be a lie. I'm 100% terrified..!

Putting your heart and soul into something and then letting the whole world 'mark your homework' feels pretty uncomfortable. And to add to that, I decided that in this episode I wanted to answer your questions about the book, and I am now feeling horribly self-indulgent and  narcissistic making this episode all about me and my book.

These are all genuine questions sent in on social media, here goes...

• Is it aimed at parents with kids of a certain age, or is it applicable from birth? (Gina)
  Parents of what age kids? (Sylvia)
  Is the guide aimed at new parents or can parents with kids of any age find good point to dive in and get some tips and ideas? (Claire)
• Can I ask who is it aimed at, parents who currently don't do any kind of green parenting, or those who already walk/bike, reuse, use cloth nappies etc. (Fran)
• Is is a similar format to your first book? (Suz)
  How much overlap is there with your first book - will those who've read that still find more in this book? (Mareli)
  What's the difference between this book and your last? (Rachel)
• How on earth did you manage to write a book in the middle of lockdown whilst homeshooling and providing 574 sustainable(ish) snacks a day? (Ida)
  How on earth did you write a book during lockdown with 2 kids at home??? (Tamasin)
• I'd love to know the basic things like the topics of the chapters ad how easy it is to pick actions that work for the age of our child? Also does it include ideas or tips for how to give appropriate messaging to different ages, as well as the people that help you raise your child such as a partner, grandparent, teacher etc.? (Sarah)
• What has this book got that others haven't? (Debs)

Tune in for the answers...!
