Wildlife ecologist and nature presenter Dr Rae Wynn-Grant joins Namulanta to share the letter she鈥檚 written for her daughters about how to overcome self-doubt.

Rae was the first Black woman to host a wildlife show on US network television and she talks about the importance of diverse representation on and off screen.

She tells Namulanta about the challenges of juggling work and parenthood 鈥� including the time she took her two year old daughter to the rainforest in search of jaguars.

Plus, she offers some very practical advice on surviving encounters with bears - including how she escaped a bear chase, and the time she gave the kiss of life to a bear!

Dear Daughter is an award-winning podcast from the 91热爆 World Service about love, life, family, and raising children. It is the brainchild of Namulanta Kombo, a mother on a quest to create a 鈥榟andbook to life鈥� for her daughter, through the advice of parents from all over the world.

Each episode, a guest reads a letter they鈥檝e written to their children (or their future children, or the children they never had) with the advice, life lessons, and personal stories they鈥檇 like to pass on.

Expect extraordinary true stories, inspirational advice for parents, and moving accounts of families, relationships and raising daughters.
