Renata (@renataroaming) is just so, so cool. She’s the founder of the Roam with Kids app and is on your social media feeds sharing all kinds of baby/kid friendly events and spaces.
Renata chatted with me this week about so many great topics, but I was particularly impressed with how politically clued in she is. Renata is passionate about changing the landscape so that birthing parents have just as much opportunity to crack the business world as non-birthing parents do.
I found our conversation so inspirational, and it gave me the affirmation I needed that I am allowed to take up space through the creation of this podcast.
Go and download the Roam with Kids app, and follow Renata everywhere! Show her some love and support a mum doing rad, rad things!
