    S2 E12 - Do I Love Myself & Am I a Good Person? Check In

    Hey y’all! Do you love yourself? Do you like yourself? Are you a good person? If you answered yes to all these questions, would you be able to still say yes with a clear conscious in a room full of people who know you intimately? I tackle these questions in this episode & you can tell that I’ve deeply thought through them for a while now because these aren’t just simple yes or no questions. The complexities of being a human around other humans makes it impossible.

    S2 E11 - Feminine Energy Check In

    Hey y’all! Today’s episode is definitely in my top 5! Anything to disrupt the norm & to not conform is good in my books. Good because it requires listening, paying attention & understanding something different. I promote healing so much because it allows us to discover & even affirm parts of ourselves. Parts that we’ve often felt like were shameful. I hope you enjoy this episode & decide to engage & share!

    Hey y’all! Happy new year! Compliments into the season! Tbh I haven’t said this all that many times so I’m not upset about saying it lol.

    S2 E7 - 2023 Check In

    Hey y’all! Merry everything and happy everything!! We all know that this time of the year is universally known as the time to reflect so let’s get into it. My most sincere prayer for every single listener is that you heal, learn & give thanks to 2023. I hope 2024 is better than what this year offered whether it offered greatness or tragedy. I hope we don’t overlook the bad but heal from it so we can appreciate the better that’s coming our way next year. Be safe y’all.

    S2 E6 - Craft Check In (with Ib)

    Hey y’all! So I have a little something something for everyone today. I want you guys to meet someone I recently connected with through her work. She’s a Nigerian lifestyle blogger who is into holistic wellness & self help (just like me!). We had an opportunity to virtually meet & it was such an honour for me to be allowed to publicly share the conversation we had. To say thank you for y’all’s continued support on this podcast I thought to share some bits from our conversation.

    S2 E5 - Purpose Driven Life 2.0 Check In

    Hey y’all! Now after the last episode I promise I have gathered myself. The emotional ramble has ended and we’re back to regular programming. Today’s episode is just a touch up on what happens when you’ve believed your whole life that a path is a narrow one direction walk way. That if you stray or take detours you may never get to where you’re headed. I’ve come to realise that that is false. A path, YOUR path may require you to detour in order to unlearn and learn habits and talents in order to reach your destination fully equipped. This is permission to desire more than one thing. More than one thing that’s “out of the ordinary” or “not expected from you”. God’s got you, believe that! Speaking of believing, would you believe me if I told you that we finally have an Instagram page? Because we do!
