Sex and Relationship Tips for the TikTok Generation. (Includes some 18+ Content)
I've launched a brand new podcast! I've been meaning to do this for YEARS as people have always responded well to my audio courses, but I never got around to it. Well, 2020 is the year, so head across to Anchor.fm/rebeccabardess or Spotify to grab the first three episodes and subscribe.

Read the paragraph that follows before you click 'play' because it's not for everyone!
Here's the latest episode. It's not for everyone, since it contains some 18+ content, but I am just OVER seeing so much utter BS about both relationships and sex on TikTok. If those of you who are freshly minted adults follow this crap, you'll have horrible sex lives, catch all kinds of diseases, and be generally unfulfilled. I can't let that happen to you.
So, here's the benefit of a couple of decades of relationships, combined with things I have learnt from the THOUSANDS of people I've coached and taught over the years. Plus a bit of third party research. Stay safe on TikTok, and don't believe the hype.
- You get to set your boundaries.
- You get to say when (and if) you lose your virginity (this goes to all genders).
- You deserve to have fulfilling relationships.
- How to stay safe on TikTok and not fall for sex trade scams and predators.
Looking forward to reading your comments, if you're brave enough to leave them. Otherwise, message me on TikTok or Instagram if you have any questions, and I can answer them anonymously here.
Stay smart!

Max Klymenko Spills the Tea About Cats, Relationships, and Careers
Max is a Genius
You may know Max Klymenko from his totally cute relationship with his cat, Mia, but what you may not know is that he's a super-successful business dude with the world-famous Accenture in London. In other words... he's hella smart. In fact, he has four degrees. FOUR. Two are master's degrees. It's hardly surprising that he's a deep thinker, which is the first thing we discuss in our chat. He's also utterly fascinating.
In this interview, Max shares with me his thoughts on:
- Relationships
- Careers and entrepreneurship
- Living and working in a different country than the one where you were raised
- The ego, and whether or not you should kill it
- Cats, and the benefits of having your own floofster (or younger sibling if floofs are unavailable)
And finally...
Looking at the stats of those of you who've opted in to receive The TikTok Tea Times (which you should totally do after you've watched this video, by the way) I can see that the majority of you at the moment are young women.
I feel that it is, therefore, my duty in an older sister/ helpful aunt type capacity to inform you that both Max and Sam Andrews are single right now. Eligible bachelors, both. But, of course, you'll need to share attention with Mia the cat with Max, and a horde of 'Emilys' with Sam.
More About Max
You can get more Max on TikTok, Instagram and his podcast, Big Fan of the Human Race.
Want more info on how to take care of a cat, choose your perfect job, or become TikTok famous? Leave your comments and questions for Max (and for me) in the comments section below, and share this post on social media to tell your friends about Max. In a rush? No problem, just hit one of the response buttons, but we'd LOVE to hear your thoughts, because this whole site is for you.
Remember you're awesome!

P.S. The music in the video is a little something I threw together, inspired by the interview, called Max Authenticity.

Sam Andrews Spills the Tea About Being TikTok Famous (Part One)
In this first part of my video interview with the legendary viral acting phenomenon Sam Andrews (@samueljeffersonandrews), we discuss:
- What brought him to TikTok, and how he became TikTok famous
- Surprising facts about him that most people don't know
- How TikTok affects people's egos
- How he feels about confidence and success
- Tips for healing from heartbreak
- What to do if you aren't very popular, successful or confident yet
Please leave comments here and tell your friends about this post. Most people on TikTok don't see this side of Sam, because of the time constraints on the vids there, and he can't always see your comments on TikTok as he gets so many, so let him know in the comments how you feel about him now you know him better.
Also, let me know who else you'd love to see/hear interviewed.
Keep grinning,
Rebecca

Rebecca has written social media magazine columns for Writing Magazine and two magazines in the entrepreneurship industry.
She coaches celebrities, entrepreneurs, and creatives from around the world. This gives her insights into what really happens when you become MORE than 'TikTok Famous’.
One of the first social media influencers, Rebecca won the Ms Twitter influencer contest (beating all the Kardashians) a decade ago, and was a Finalist in The Shorty Awards, beating JK Rowling in the Literature category.
She was also one of the original Dot Com Pioneers, and her cat was one of the first lolcats on the web before the term 'lolcat' was a thing. Rebecca turned her into a gif with flashing eyes that told fortunes on a celebrity blog in 1999.
Random trivia:
She was invited to a party in Johnny Depp’s room in a hotel once, but turned him down because she was having too much fun singing for a bunch of BAFTA Award winners at an aftershow party.
She had pizza with Stephen Fry and interviewed him for a student newspaper in 1997. They’re still friends.
She is camera shy but that didn’t stop Google randomly roping her into testing live-streaming tech for SIX YEARS so you’d be able to go live on places like YouTube, Facebook, and TikTok.
