The Parent(Thesis)
by Marika
The Parent(Thesis) A parent's curious conversations about the lives, loves and desires of others. Becoming a parent changes how you see everyone — not just your own kids, but every person you meet. The Parent(Thesis) is where that curiosity gets a microphone. Host Marika sits down with people from her local community in Harlow to ask the questions that actually matter: what they love, what they've chased, what still keeps them up at night — parenting included, but never limited to it. Guests range from parents to people just starting to think about family life, and everyone in between. Some conversations are tender, some are funny, some wander somewhere neither host nor guest expected — but each one treats the guest as a whole person, not just a role. Recorded in person, in Harlow, The Parent(Thesis) is as much a portrait of a community as it is a series of interviews — proof that the most interesting stories are usually sitting closer
