2 APR 2021 · Dec 2013 I was 8.5 months pregnant, I had an invitation to do a Ted talk (TedxEuston) earlier in the year, and to be honest I didn’t think about what my state would be come December, on the day as soon as I finished speaking I received a big kick of approval. In this episode I share the story that sparked ‘Becoming’ because when my friend saw this Ted Talk, and suggested to help me develop it into a solo piece.
On the 31st March I will be sharing the rehearsed reading I did in 2018 at Stratford Circus Arts Centre.

28 AGO 2020 · Tola Okogwu is a journalist and author of the ‘Daddy Do My Hair’ picture book series. The books were inspired by the relationship between her husband and daughters and are designed to challenge some of the perceptions and preconceptions around race and gender roles within parenting. Her books have become an excellent way of encouraging diversity and inclusion from an early age. Having children from all ethnicities enjoy the books makes an important impact on how children can identify with each other.
Through her books and wider writing, Tola constantly seeks to create ‘mirrors and windows’, allowing everyone the opportunity to read books that are reflective of their own experiences, backgrounds and cultures. An avid reader, Tola enjoys spending time with her family and friends around her home in Kent, UK where she lives with her husband and daughters.
