Being the first-born daughter in a typical African household
can be challenging. There are often unique expectations and responsibilities
placed upon you. You often bear the weight of enormous expectations- from
taking on caregiving roles to supporting your family, sometimes, financially.
In this episode, I talk about the impacts of the African firstborn daughter
syndrome and some key lessons I have learnt (and am still learning) as a firstborn
daughter myself.
