Come and join our Incredible Conversation, a podcast for adults supporting young people, by clinical psychologists Jane Gilmour and Bettina Hohnen. We use the same principles we apply in our books (The Incredible Teenage Brain, 2019 and How To Have Incredible Conversations with your Child, published 2021), first what is the science and second how can we use that science to change what we say or do when we are around young people? The science is current, the conversation is relatable and it will help unlock young people's potential.

Bettina introduces a new podcast she is launching called Just One Thing For Parents. In this podcast she will be interviewing experts in the field of child mental health and asking them to share just one thing they believe to be helpful for parents supporting young minds. Each expert will focus on their area of expertise. The episodes are short (less than 10 minutes), accessible and easy to digest. Listen here to the first episode with Dawn Huebner who talks about how to support an anxious child. For future episodes go to Just One Thing For Parents by Dr Bettina Hohnen and follow there.

Life After School
In this episode Bettina and Jane talk through dilemmas for parents and young people as they leave school for work of college. A parent is concerned about their diabetic son starting University, with all the self-care and orgnisation required of independent living. Letting go, particularly in the context of a medical condition is hard, so what should a parent do (1 min).
How can a parent set their high-achieving daughter up to cope with the prospect of not being the top of the class, without it overwhelming her (10:16).
A young person with ADHD knows that routine and regularity is particularly important for their brain, but how can they communicate this to friends at Uni without seeming like a loser (20:10).
A parent is concerned about her son who went straight into a job after school, where his colleagues are older than him, leaving him feeling lonely. What can they do to support him? (29:00)
