A Very Special Interview with my Daughter, Immy

•

Welcome back to The Calm & Happy Home Podcast!


This week is a bit of a different one, I've handed the reins over to my daughter Immy for a very special interview. She wrote her own list of questions without me seeing them first, so this episode is as much a surprise for me as it is for you, some feng shui, some life, and a few properly embarrassing moments thrown in.


If you've ever wondered what I was really like as a teenager, whether I secretly use ChatGPT, or what my daughter thinks of my "podcast voice", grab a cuppa, this one's a fun, honest one.


  • What I was actually like at 14 (a floater, if we're honest, until one English essay changed everything)
  • Why my "podcast voice" really is different from how I talk at home, and the reason behind it
  • Having lots of different friendship groups rather than one best friend, and why that's served me so well
  • The great debate over what to name our next dog
  • How I really feel about AI and ChatGPT, where it helps me hugely in business and where I'll never let it near my feng shui
  • Whether I'd move to Sydney if Immy studies there one day
  • My (very limited) artistic skills, that art GCSE, and the painting Ed still doesn't know the whereabouts of
  • Why you don't have to be brilliant at everything, some things just aren't your strength, and that's okay
  • Never picturing myself where I am now, and how I ended up here anyway by trusting things would work out
  • What Immy wants to do when she's older, and the passion she's found that combines two things she loves


You don't need to have it all figured out to end up exactly where you're meant to be.


So much love, Kimberley and Immy xx
