On this week’s episode, we’re joined by the incredible Blind Content Creator, Claire Sisk. She shared her story of losing her sight as an adult after two strokes – and how hard this made parenting as a single mum. Claire joined our Circle of Trust, sharing the amazing relationship she has with her daughter and how it broke her when she left for uni. She also gave us her forthright opinion on our usual Overheard in the Playground gossip – a heatwave and kids off school, come on now! Plus, her fabulous unqualified advice on how 80s parents dealt with disappointment – food of course. Tune in for a great episode wherever you get your podcasts.

Claire is talking with the three hosts of the parenting podcast, I’m Not Judging, But... she is wearing a white polka dot top, has full glam on and her hair is down with beautiful waves in it, as she is about to have her passport photo taken and is wearing headphones. She is talking to Briony who has a thick brown fringe and is wearing a black t-shirt and has headphones on. Vix is a redhead and is wearing green glasses and has a gingham pink and brown top on, she is smiling. Charlie is blonde has her hair down, wearing a blue and white striped jumper. They are all laughing as Claire gives her opinions  on all things parenting.

Briony May Williams, Charlie Fuge and Vix Willshire take a precious moment to pause and share the unsung moments, shared struggles and joy of raising tweens and teens. It's your front-row seat to the chaos, laughter and questionable decisions that come with full-on family life — with celebrity guest parents, expert advice, and the gossip you didn't know you needed.


This is real talk: honest conversations on SEND, body image, playground drama, listener dilemmas and the debates every parent's had at least once. Whether you're listening during a quick break or while hiding in the bathroom for a moment of peace (we’ve all been there), I’m Not Judging, But…offers the perfect escape.


I’m Not Judging, But…drops each Thursday. It’s a podcast production by Fin, the Executive Producer is Jojo Strous. You can find us on YouTube @Imnotjudgingbut, Instagram @imnotjudgingbutpod and TikTok @imnotjudgingbutpod.
