What Adults Don't Tell You Before You Adult

Anya and Tom vouch that it’s okay not to have your life together, or be a domestic goddess, or DIY handy, but is it okay for your Mum to still be washing your under wear...?  Join Anya and Tom as they discuss all things house hold related and break down the do’s and don’ts of keeping your humble abode just how it should be... with clothes slung over chairs, washing gloves inside out and wonky shelves... sounds about right.

Join Anya and Tom as they discuss their love hate relationship with the green stuff that unfortunately doesn’t grow on trees!   Starting out in the big wide world managing your money can be daunting, but you can always rely on Anya and Tom to give you the low down on how to keep swimming, or maybe an overdraft would suffice…   Covering all the important stuff from first time salaries, savings and of course the increasing price of the Freddo. Knowing we’re all in it together can make life’s strife’s more manageable, but there’s no promises that checking your online banking will ever become less nerve racking!

As a kid we were asked on a regular basis by adults, ‘what do you want to do when you grow up?’. You answer their question with the usual, firefighter, popstar, Willy Wonka’s personal assistant… (just me?)… and they follow with an abundance of praise, well wishes and advice. But did they ever take a moment to mention the journey you’ll have to take every single day when you achieve that dream job… no? Funny that. Maybe they were worried that if you knew the truth you’d never leave the nest…   Listen in to Anya and Tom discussing everything adults forgot to mention about the daily commute into work. Covering everything from avoiding eye contact, heavy breathing, drunks, approaching crying people, delays and our general top tips on how to deal with being sardined on a train for an hour every - single - day.   We’re in it together kids!

Welcome to What Adults Don't Tell You Before You Adult, where myself (Anya) and Tom (who is currently avoiding all responsibilities of writing this description) will be discussing everything that adults forgot to tell you about adulting, before you hit the magical age of 18.  From commuting, to foodshopping, and all the niggly responsibilities like writing a description box for a podcast... We'll be getting right down to the nitty gritty life stuff, to give you lovely listeners some relatable giggles and make you feel less alone in the world of adulthood!
