Kids, sports and co-parenting with Sulu Fitzpatrick

Parents We've Met

Former Silver Fern Sulu Fitzpatrick joins Jenny and Dayna for an inspiring kōrero about the juggle of life as an athlete and a mum to a blended family of six.

Sulu shares openly about the highs and lows of her career, what it was like becoming a mum to multiples as a teenager, and the winning mindset she’s embraced as she’s navigated the ups and downs of a professional sports career.

We delve into Sulu’s beautiful upbringing, and reflect on the importance of her village and the value she places on raising confident and resilient children. Dayna also takes the opportunity to ‘pick the brain’ of a sporting legend to find out how we can support our own kids to have fun and flourish in sport.
