Podcast Insights
Content Themes
The podcast focuses on parenting challenges, mental load, and personal growth. Topics include balancing careers and motherhood, financial education for children, and building supportive communities. Episode highlights include discussions on entrepreneurship among parents, navigating lockdown challenges, and maintaining personal identity after becoming a parent.
There is no manual.
Nobody handed you an instruction guide when you became a parent. No one warned you about the invisible weight you’d carry — the mental load that never switches off, the identity you’d quietly grieve, the guilt that sits with you at 2am even when you did everything right. The ambition you’re still fighting for. The version of yourself you’re trying not to lose.
The Parent Playbook by Trybe is where modern parents finally get to tell the truth.
Hosted by Princess Nyah — founder, mum, and the kind of person who makes you feel safe enough to say the real thing — every episode is a deep, unfiltered conversation with parents who are living it: founders, creatives, educators, tech leaders, musicians, and community builders. All of them parents. All of them carrying something the world rarely asks about.
Each conversation is guided by what Nyah calls the Purple Print — the shared emotional patterns, invisible pressures, and survival systems that connect every parent, even when they feel completely alone.
No advice you didn’t ask for. No polished parenting expertise. No perfect answers.
Just honest storytelling, lived experience, and the permission to feel fully human.
Every episode ends with the same question:
“What’s one part of parenting you were never told would take up so much space in your head?”
And every now and then — Nyah’s daughter Kizzy reaches into a jar and asks her own.
The Purple Print
The real patterns parents are living inside — the emotional truths, invisible pressures, and shared experiences that rarely get spoken about honestly. This is the space where they do.
Princess Nyah — founder of Trybe, mother, and host.
She approaches every guest as a person first.
This week on The Parent Playbook, Nyah sits down with presenter, mum and self-proclaimed Gemma 2.0 — Gemma Grandison. And this one feels less like a podcast and more like a therapy session between two women who have both been through it.
Gemma is a mum of one — one and done, she is very clear about that — to a seven-year-old mini-me who is a Pisces and has her wrapped around her finger. But getting to this point, to the version of herself that is finally enjoying motherhood, was not a straight line.
She opens up about the week she was booked to return to work after maternity leave — and the country went into lockdown. About being a solo mum in a pandemic with a baby who would not sleep and would not take a bottle, while her daughter's dad went back to work as a key worker and she stood in car parks two metres from the people she loved. About the extended maternity leave that stretched to two to three years. About the depression that crept in. The eviction. Moving back to her mum's. The downward spiral she did not see coming and the long road back out of it.
But this is not a story about falling apart. It is a story about Gemma 2.0 — the rebirth. The therapy that changed everything and made her a better parent. The yoga and meditation practice that freed the stuck energy she had been carrying since she was a child who was told to stop crying and eventually did. The art therapy. The journaling. The gradual reclaiming of herself, her career and her joy.
They also talk about the village we are all supposed to have and so rarely do. The way sleep deprivation is an actual form of torture. The guilt of admitting you are drowning when everyone expects you to be glowing. How therapy makes you a lighter, more present, more patient parent — and how you can access it affordably if you know where to look.
Full of warmth, honesty and the kind of holistic gems that are actually free. This one is for the mum who has been fighting for her life and is ready to stop.
If this conversation sat with you — that's the Purple Print doing its thing.
