Summary

I was so excited to have the opportunity to sit down with Dyson Engineer Niamh Turney about her experience as a woman in tech, especially at a young age. What I didn’t expect was a conversation that would literally change the way I parent, move in rooms, and find confidence in moments where I may be a little more introverted. This podcast explores the curious world of Dyson, careers starting at 19 to careers starting at 40. Failure, passion and all the bits in between. Oh, and how jet technology is literally in hair tools now - SO FASCINATING!

Stir is the app designed for parents who just happen to be single. Download Stir or tell your single friends to try it out!

0:35.8	But now they do. It's called stir. This is the only dating app for single parents.
0:41.9	And I know I've been there. And while I didn't have an app like this at the time,
0:46.6	I'm so passionate about people who are parents who also happen to be single,
0:50.9	finding a place to land that maybe makes them feel a little bit more comfortable in the
0:55.1	dating scene. Because stir is a place where single parents can just be single.

1:09.3	Oh, also, I have three kids. No, this is definitely part of who you are.
1:14.1	And stir is where you don't have to apologize for having a really wild schedule.
1:19.6	Minds all over the place. And I remember when I was dating how
1:24.4	uncomfortable it made me an almost apologetic. It made me that I didn't really have a lot of
1:29.2	availability. And they had to find a way to work themselves into my life. And you know,
