Blended Family (What You Do For Love) | Redi Tlhabi

A candid conversation about the stepmom/daughter relationship.
I sit down with my stepmom to have an open and honest conversation about the often difficult relationship between a stepmom and step daughter. The media portrayal and depiction of this relationship is often negative and at best, difficult.
We explore the difficulties but also ultimately, break the stereotypes around this blended family dynamic. Join us for a candid discussion on this interesting family dynamic as we answer the questions you wanted to know.

This was so wholesome. I feel like the next guest needs to be your Dad :)

[@thokozilendlebe]

Okay! The real MVP here is your Dad please, he was very intentional with choosing the best partner to ensure everyone lives in harmony. The mutual respect and love you have for each other with your stepmom is unmatched. Really enjoyed this honest and open conversation ❤

[@BeeXaba]

Penny played a big role by being nice to Redi.... And the other way around... Very important in step parenting

[@ThatoKhumaloTK]

I love how Redi speaks about her husband. Redi loves her man, it's beautiful to hear. I love how she also spoke about your mom ❤❤❤

[@oliviajoans]

[@BeeXaba]

I don't know how this video is making me emotional, it's beautiful to watch hle, what a wholesome interview

[@PrettySbosh]

Love love this... Redi is so wise and I commend her emotional intelligence. ❤❤❤ I remember listening to her a lot on her 702 days I was then on my under graduate Journalism studies. I always loved her.

[@dembesimethi8810]

[@nondumisomhlongo]

I can't believe I only found out about this podcast now. Amazing. Great episode!

[@mmeyi]

This was such a wholesome and exciting conversation. It's always a treat to listen to Black women. Thank you ❤

[@khutsomoleko]

This was such a beautiful interview. I wish I had this kind of relationship I had with my step mother. She was horrible to my sister and I and to my mother. It was such a toxic relationship we held together for the sake of my father who we loved and respected so much. Beautiful interview ❤❤❤😊

[@ntandomtwa2220]

It's the fact that Lesego does not remember half of the stories and mama Redi recalls the dates even 🤣🤣😂😂😂😂😂

[@tendanimuthelo8855]

Beautiful conversation. I love Penny and Redi. They are both remarkable women.

[@bongivelem6037]

I loved watching this, so pure and transparent. My friends dad recently introduced a lady to them, and I think when that happened she wasn't ready, I think she needs to see this interview, just so she doesn't feel like she was selfish

[@regaogetswechuene9591]

[@modikoakoena250]

🥰🥰🥰🥰 glad I found this page

[@leratontw]

This is my favourite episode thus far. So wholesome, so sincere and informative ❤ It has certainly changed my perspective on dating someone with children. We focus so much on negative relationships, and it's so beautiful to see this dynamic of a blended family. I also have a step mom, and we've had our challenges over the years, I was so moved when she recently told me how accepting I was of her when we first met. I was quite young, around 4 or 5 years old. She never tried to be my mom, and she always knew her limits. We had our challenges as I grew older, and things did change when she had my siblings. I loved that you guys touched on that and your experiences because i certainly had a similar experience that my siblings got a better experience with my dad and it's something i have also suppressed for a long time. Yoh. I resonated with this episode so much I can't even fully express just how liberating it was. 🥹

[@nkhen_c357]

Redi is more open and relaxed than the host.........she loves her husband this woman.

[@BaneleSA]
