Closing our this Season with a quick review of how featuring my triplet brothers, Montgomery and Horatio, is going. I couldnât tell if it would be a smooth experience until I tried, obviously.

Time is precious whatever our age. Wasting our time on conversation topics that bore us can feel pretty mindless. In todays episode I explore the idea of things I donât care about. Youâll hear examples of conversations that fall into this category. My triplet brothers, Montgomery and Horatio will probably make you almost fall sleep UNLESS youâre into the topics they are passionate about. I find that hard to believe but itâs possible!
Youâll learn about one topic I drone on about to anyone who will listen. Thatâs also possibly a subject my family would say they donât care about! Perhaps you have topics you like to talk over but secretly people roll their eyes about! We really do all have things we donât care about.
If this is true, we might want to reflect on how we manage ourselves when people decide to share about things they care about but we donât. I explore ways I deal with these situations and accept I may need to develop different strategies.
In this episode I also review the Growing Up Powerful Podcast from Rebel Girls. Iâm a fan of Rebel Girls in general. Iâm committed to examining things critically so youâll hear the question I have about the hosts I canât find the answer for online. Itâs an important question. If you have the answer let me know.
I hope this episode sparks ideas for you . If it does, could this be the day you leave me a positive review on whichever podcast platform you prefer to listen in on?
And don't forget, if you want to get involved and join my correspondent team, all you have to do is leave a review for this show on your favorite podcast app (you name and what you like about this podcast) and send me a screenshot. Then I'll be in touch with more information about coming on my show!

Letâs make bad habits normal, could we agree on this?. In todays behind the scenes bulletin youâll hear about even more so-called bad habits including how a particular one sparked a mega successful TV show.
Youâll learn why I believe that asking neurodiverse people to change bad habits may be unkind. Plus, I encourage listeners to start up conversations about reframing bad habits at school, at home and in friendship groups. Let me know about your bad habits and how you reframe them!!
