## Resource

This week, Kee and Kelly are joined by Lem Zakharia - founder of Bedou, former executive producer of It’s A Lot with Abbie Chatfield, and the creator of the podcast Twice Displaced . Lem’s family story doesn’t fit the neat little boxes we’re used to. She fell in love with her wife Christina, and slowly became a parent to Christina’s two kids -— first from the sidelines, then right in the thick of tantrums, boundaries, bedtime battles and teenage emotional landmines. In this conversation, Lem opens up about step-parenting, queer family life, earning a child’s trust, and the moment she realised being “the other parent” wasn’t something she could claim - it was something she had to build.   LINKS TO EVERYTHING WE MENTIONED Lem Zakharia's Instagram @lemzakharia Twice Displaced - Podcast Overshare - Podcast HOSTS & PRODUCERS Kee Reece Searles  @keereece Kelly McCarren @kelly_mccarren AUDIO PRODUCTION Madeline Joannou - ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Mylk Media⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠  ⁠⁠⁠⁠ See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
