In the very first episode of the Yung Cubs Parenting Podcast, Dan and Charlie sit down with Marcel and Fleur to talk about the transition from partners into parents- what changes, what stays the same and how you navigate the shift from being two to suddenly becoming more.

This honest conversation explores the highs and lows of early parenthood, how it can affect your relationship, and some of the common misconceptions people carry into parenting.

A few questions to reflect on from this episode:
1. Parenting takes a village. If you’re finding things tough, who could you reach out to? Are there friends or family you can lean on for support?
2. How has intimacy shifted? Since becoming parents, how has your connection with your partner changed? Are there small ways you can prioritise time together?
3. What’s your relationship like with your own parents? How can you invite them into your child’s life while navigating different approaches to parenting?
