It's a Drama Podcast

Behind The Scenes #5. Quitting School. Where to Now?


Listen Later

Oh, joy. Just when you think you have everything sorted.

Just when you think that you have all of your baby duckies lined up neatly in a row, something goes and changes. A big wet scary towel is thrown over you and your head is you find yourself being yanked pulled along with the flow.

I just wanted to make this absolutely clear before you listen to this weeks Behind the Scenes Podcast.

What may sound like a very calm and easy-going mother talking to her up-in-the-air-daughter is actually a woman whose mind is filled with jumble, fear, excitement, pride, and worry.

All parents know this feeling. Each and every one of us go through this at least a billion times a year with our kids.

Enjoy.

In this podcast, Tessa and I talk openly about:

  • Tessa's decision NOT to graduate. To change paths. To no longer 'do' education.
  • The fear around making decisions that don't fit neatly into a square box.
  • Dealing with peer pressure.
  • My, the parent's, perspective. My fears.
  • The one most important skill that all parents need to keep moving forward.
