    Be Curious (Part 1)

    Have we, as parents, lost our curiosity?Between surviving the day-to-day, navigating tech we're not fluent in, and trying to keep up with our kids’ fast-moving digital lives—are we missing moments to truly connect? In this episode, I dive into everything from AI to TikTok, Kendrick Lamar to K-pop, rabbit holes on YouTube, Netflix dramas, parenting shame, and the power of just being curious. Not to know it all, but to understand a little more—and connect a lot deeper. 🎧 Tap in if you’re a parent, an auntie, a teacher, or just someone who wants to build better bridges across generations.

    Why Struggle Alone

    I've had conversations with many parents along my journey—single parents, co-parents, and those in partnerships. One theme keeps coming up: the feeling of struggling alone. But why struggle alone? How can we shift this? How can we rewrite this narrative? Listen as I share experiences and practical steps to break this cycle. Maybe it’s time to #FindYourTribe and #MakeThatChange—because no one should have to do this alone. A single pebble creates ripples. Let’s drop that pebble together. Buckle up. The shift starts now.

    University Student's Renting: My dilemma

    Did you know you need to be a UK homeowner to act as guarantor for you child's rent outside of halls of residents? In Bristol you do! I never knew it was an issue until now.  Low income families with bright children going to university be aware. Starting a degree is not the issue but continuing to the end can be the challenge.   Links below for more research so you can be prepared or campaign for change. Links for further reading:https://www.theguardian.com/education/2014/oct/29/parents-who-wish-they-knew-more-about-university https://www.theguardian.com/education/2015/jan/20/student-housing-what-you-need-to-know-as-a-guarantorBristol - https://my.housinghand.co.uk/register?code=bristolun UCAS Hub for parents https://www.ucas.com/discoverPodcast contact: parenttalkwithbev@gmail.com
