EPISODE 9; Han-Son Lee, Founder DaddiLife, talks gender equality with Chiara Condi

The Other Half : Conversations With Men on Gender Equality

Han-Son Lee, the founder of DaddiLife, an online media that champions what’s possible for the modern day dad (while there are 4.2 million mom blogs in the world, there are only 1,000 dad ones). He is a frequent contributor on topics related to fatherhood and his work has been featured on the Daily Telegraph and the Financial Times. Han-Son talks about how having a son has made him cry a lot more, but also inspired him to create a world where children can aspire to achieve everything they want. We talk about millennial dads who want to be more involved, but also the need to create more spaces and workplaces that allow men to do so, and why we should be more tolerant at work and more inclusive on the playground. Han Son tells us about his inspiring mother (who was also a father) to him, a superwoman who taught him the importance of treating everybody equally. He also tells us about how important it was to be involved in his son’s life from day one, and the awareness that being a divorced parent brought to him about doing things equally. His advice to fathers: know what you want out of fatherhood. Now we believe him when he says he is 110% feminist !
