His dad saw something in him that he couldn’t yet see in himself. ❤️

At just 16 years old, Gerry’s dad hired him a typewriter and encouraged him to write his very first book.

It wasn’t the start of an overnight success story, but it was the first step on a journey that would eventually lead him to become an author.

It made me think how many incredible journeys begin because one person chooses to believe in someone else.

Sometimes the greatest gift a parent can give isn’t money or advice. It’s belief.

When I asked Lorraine Beavers for her one piece of wisdom, her answer was immediate.

“Don’t give in, no matter what they tell you. Don’t give in. Do it anyway.”

Simple words, but there’s a reason people who achieve great things often say something similar.

Every meaningful journey comes with doubters, setbacks and moments where quitting feels easier.

Sometimes the difference between success and failure is simply refusing to stop.

A poem changed his life forever.

Parker Words wrote a poem called Northerner, he never imagined where it would take him.

What an inspiration and incredible to see what started as an idea became a career, a business, and a life doing something he genuinely loves 👏

Most young people don’t realise this until it’s too late…

When we asked her what advice she’d give to her 21-year-old self, her answer wasn’t about money, careers, or success.

It was about respecting older people.

As she explained, when she was young she thought 50 was old. Now she’s 80, her perspective has completely changed.

A simple piece of wisdom that feels more relevant today than ever.

Did we have more freedom… or were we just lucky?

There was a time when children left the house in the morning, disappeared for hours, and their parents had no way of contacting them.

Was it a safer time, or have we become more protective as society has changed?

You don’t need a degree to be successful.

Too many young people are made to feel that university is the only route to success. Lorraine Beavers MP shares why that’s simply not true.

Having never gone to university herself, she explains how hard work, determination and self-belief helped her become an MP.

A message every young person needs to hear.
