This Motivational Monday, we’re breaking one of parenting’s biggest taboos:

What if your kid doesn’t want to finish school and that’s actually okay?

Ali shares a raw, practical, and slightly rebellious take on letting kids ditch the ATAR dreams and follow their own path whether that’s a trade, a job, or just not being miserable in a classroom.

We unpack:

• Why university isn't the only path to success anymore
• How forcing kids into academic moulds can crush confidence
• The rise of trades, apprenticeships, and real-world smarts
• Why quitting school doesn’t mean quitting life (or ambition)

This one’s for the mums and dads lying awake at night wondering if letting their teen drop out makes them a failure. (Spoiler: it doesn’t.)

It might actually make you a damn good parent.

This episode is for:

• Parents of teens struggling in the school system
• Mums wondering if a trade could be better than Year 12
• Families exploring alternative education or early entry into work
• Anyone questioning the pressure to “stay in school no matter what”
