    Ep.20 Family Secrets & Unfiltered Advice ft. My Mum & Grandma 🫢| Season 1 Finale

    For the Season 1 finale of They Say I’m Too Loud, I sat down with my mum and grandma to reflect on past episodes, react to my wildest transformations (yes, the braids, the tattoos, the bald head… nothing was off-limits 😅), and dive deep into some of the toughest dilemmas you’ve sent in. 💌 We tackled it all: Should you charge family for your creative work? Would you leave love for success abroad? What happens when you fake your graduation… and the whole family throws a party? Plus, grandma got real about growing up in the village, mum opened up about being called out for not “speaking enough,” and together we unpacked love, identity, success, and the family values that keep us grounded. This episode is funny, raw, and a little emotional — the perfect way to close out Season 1. 💜 ✨ If you’ve loved this journey, make sure to subscribe, drop a comment on your favorite moment, and share this with someone who loves real family conversations. ★ This episode was filmed at The Content Studio.
