About the episode

“They just came and dropped some trauma bombs on my bed and fucked off" In this episode, Chloe and Ellidy catch up with one of their besties, Irene Soares. Irene (affectionately known as ‘Ri’) is a fashion designer and part time DJ from South Africa who is a breath of fresh air and someone the girls rely on to bring the good vibes. But along with Ri’s big, bright and bold personality, is an equally as big life journey. Today, Irene opens up about her adoption. And the profound impact her parents honesty and transparency has had on her relationship with them, and her biological mother. This is a fascinating exploration of what it means to be family and the importance of knowing where you come from.
