Episode Synopsis

What are the things you wish school had taught you about understanding yourself, life, relationships, confidence, and health — so that each day you could grow into the person you know you’re capable of becoming?Welcome to The School Run Podcast, where every day is a school day — and where we talk about the lessons that don’t appear on the curriculum.In this very special and emotional episode, mum and daughter Jane and Liv reflect on change, growth, confidence, and chapters coming to a close. For one of the last times as co-hosts, they sit together to talk honestly about what it means to move forward, let go, and trust what’s next.Liv shares why she’s stepping away from the podcast as she begins a new chapter — starting a new job, a degree apprenticeship, and life beyond what’s been familiar for nearly three years of podcasting together. Jane reflects on what it’s meant to co-create something so meaningful with her daughter, and why the podcast isn’t ending — it’s evolving.They discuss: • Why school doesn’t teach us how to truly understand ourselves • Navigating change and uncertainty • Confidence, networking, and stepping into new rooms • Why your relationships and connections matter • Coaching, self-awareness, and finding your people • Letting go of one chapter without losing the heart of itYou’ll also hear what’s next for The School Run Podcast, as it becomes powered by Little Voices — exploring confidence, creativity, education, leadership, and the future of learning through conversations with educators, franchisees, tutors, past pupils, and future changemakers._Podcasts for us are all about learning and sharing, of course free to listen to._**We have some small costs to cover so if you would like to buy us a virtual cup of tea /coffee when we are planning them out please click here …..** [⁠⁠https://www.buymeacoffee.com/theschoolrun⁠⁠](https://www.buymeacoffee.com/theschoolrun "‌")\*\*Get In Touch: Of course, you can always get in touch with us (publicly or privately) on our socials \@‌theschoolrun_official / \@‌mrsjanejames on Instagram, or search and follow Jane James on Facebook.
