E16 A Conversation With My Mother - Advanced English storytelling and personal topics

English and Beyond: Advanced English for Fluency & Communication

This episode is a very special one for me—because I’ve finally convinced my mum to join me on the podcast! 🎉

My mother hates being photographed and/or recorded and has already warned me that she will never listen back to this episode—so I’m shocked that she agreed to take part! But I couldn’t be happier, because this conversation with her made me smile so much while editing.

In this episode, we reminisce about her childhood in Scotland, her relationship with her own mother, and the best and worst parts of being a parent. We talk about how parenting has changed, why she tells me not to have kids (while also saying they are the best thing she ever did), and what it’s like watching your children grow into adults.

If you enjoy honest, heartwarming, and funny conversations about family, childhood, and parenting, this is the episode for you!

💡 What you’ll learn in this episode:
✔️ Real-life British English conversation in a natural setting
