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 finally gets the guest she has been trying to book for five years. And she was worth every single minute of the wait.
Nikki Beatnik is a DJ, producer, songwriter, music director, entrepreneur and mother — and she has been to 70 countries across six continents doing what she loves. She has toured the world pregnant, slept in coffin bunk beds eight months gone, DJed her last residency days before giving birth, survived an emergency C-section she nearly did not walk away from, and was back behind the decks six weeks later in C-section pants because the bills do not stop coming just because you nearly died. If that does not tell you everything you need to know about this woman, nothing will.
But this conversation is not just about how tough Nikki Beatnik is. It is about the music industry's silence around mothers. The fact that women producers are still just 4% of the industry. The fact that touring DJs who become mums are essentially invisible to any kind of support structure. The pressure that the industry places on women to simply not have children — and why Nikki waited as long as she did before becoming a mum.
They get into Mums at Rave — the all-women day party that Nikki has been running for seven years, that has now clocked over 100 million views on social media and 80,000 organic followers, where women come from all over the UK on a Saturday afternoon and rave harder than anyone has any right to rave at 2pm. Artists have been moved to tears performing there. Women have found the confidence to cut their hair, leave relationships, go for the job and just be themselves for a few hours without the weight of everything else.
They also talk about the invisible load, the self-employment maternity pay trap that nobody warns you about, why you should absolutely set up a limited company, why Nikki gentle parented before it had a name, dressing intentionally as a daily act of self-preservation, and why the Thai spa in Penge is better than any five-star hotel in the world.
There are still gems to come. They need a part two. But this one alone is more than enough to keep you going.
If this conversation sat with you — that's the Purple Print doing its thing.
