Welcome to Where We're At podcast with Terri Nwanma. The big things are shifting for everyone right now, and even the experts don't quite have a firm grasp on where any of this is headed. These pressures are curdling in the softer parts of our lives too: our relationships, our sense of who we are, and what we think we're supposed to be doing with our time. This first season of the podcast checks in with peers in their 20s from around the world, people intentionally steering their own lives and redefining identity, work, love, and community as they brave rapidly changing tides with the rest of us.

    The Ex-Extrovert Running Nigeria's Largest Outdoor Movie Experience

    Ihechi is a Law graduate who's never practiced, because somewhere between hosting a teen radio show at 15 and presenting for a national bank at 17, he realized there was more excitement in being in front of people than behind a legal desk. He calls himself an "ex-extrovert" now and has since found more peace working behind the scenes: producing events and managing talent. He's the founder of Movie in the Park, Nigeria's largest outdoor movie experience, which started as a lunch conversation with a friend and has since grown into a touring, legacy brand-backed event drawing thousands of people per city. We talk about proving yourself as a young person in rooms that might not want to make space for you, being intentional and selective about friendship, and why he's not satisfied with where he's at, even when things are going well.

    Chosen Family and Curated Shelves borne of Self-Permission

    Welcome to Where We're At. This week, I'm sitting down with Azzah. Azzah describes her 27-year-old self as grounded, someone who's finally learned to take things slowly. She studied philosophy, politics, and economics with dreams of Oxford, built a stable career as a financial advisor in Canada, and did everything right by the metrics she'd set for herself. Then her work permit expired, and she had to leave the country she'd spent almost a decade building a life in. Rather than let that loss define her, she turned it into something else entirely: Buka Buku, a book cafe in Jakarta built from her own personal library, seven hundred books deep, that she'd been collecting since childhood. We talk about the fear of sharing something that precious with strangers, the friendships that carried her through every major transition in her adult life, how her relationship to romantic love shifted once she stopped optimizing for achievement, and the leap of faith it took to open a business she wasn't even sure she'd get to keep.

    From Pre-Med to Multi-Hyphenate, On her Own Clock

    Welcome to Where We're At. This week, I'm sitting down with Jayla Moss. Jayla describes herself as a multifaceted, STEM-focused creative, and that barely covers it. She left South Carolina for Maine at 18, spent years preparing for medical school, and then walked away from an acceptance letter when she realized it was not her calling. Now she's building a life in Atlanta that looks nothing like the one she planned. She's a content creator, a commercial model, an AI professional, and a student, all at once, all on her own terms. We talk about starting her twenties somewhere she never planned to be, building community from scratch in a new city, how her view of romantic love has sharpened without losing its optimism, and the faith that's carried her through the hardest parts of the better part of a decade. Find Jayla online as @gullahbeauty on Instagram and TikTok.
