    Love, Visas, and everything in between

    In this episode, Ijeme is joined by a very special guest, her husband, as they share how they met. Their story also opens the door to wider conversations within immigrant communities, including marriages influenced by immigration status, staying in the UK through partnership, and the complex space between genuine love and the search for stability. And at the center of it all is one lingering question: Does love abroad really exist?

    What Living Abroad Taught Me About Rest

    “Rest is not laziness.” At least, that’s something many of us only learn after our bodies force the lesson. In this episode, Ijeme reflects on how moving abroad completely shifted her understanding of rest and how it took over three years to realize that sleep alone is not rest. Growing up, rest often felt like something that had to be earned, not something we were allowed to take freely. But living abroad challenged that belief and exposed the quiet guilt many immigrants carry around slowing down. If you’ve ever felt tired even after sleeping. If rest feels undeserved or uncomfortable. This episode is for you.

    Age, Respect and Culture

    Ijeme reflects on how moving abroad reshaped her views on age, respect, and authority in this thoughtful episode of The Nigerian Abroad. Coming from a background where respect is tied closely to age and position, she discusses the challenges and surprises of adapting to cultures where hierarchy feels less rigid and more casual. This episode offers a personal look at unlearning old patterns, negotiating new boundaries, and balancing cultural identity with the realities of immigrant life.

    What Are You Still Too Nigerian To Do?

    Five years in the UK and some things have changed… But some things? I’m still very Nigerian about them. In this episode, I talk about the everyday things I’m still too Nigerian to do. From eating “non-breakfast” foods for breakfast, to camping (absolutely not), to the stress of calling your boss by their first name. It’s light, honest, and very familiar if you’ve ever lived between cultures. If you’re navigating life abroad and laughing through the cultural whiplash, this one’s for you.

    What I Am Not Bringing Into 2026

In this episode, Ijeme reflects on what she’s intentionally taking into 2026 and what she’s choosing to finally leave behind.

    From Nigeria to the Blackboard - Teachers Abroad Tell Their Story ft Taiwo and Ayomide

    We know, Teachers’ Day was October 5th. But this conversation? Timeless. In this Teachers’ Day Special, I speak with two incredible educators shaping minds across borders. We talk about teaching abroad, the cultural nuances of education, and why being an educator is both rewarding and relentless. It’s a heartfelt, unfiltered look at the people who make learning possible, no matter where in the world they teach. Because teachers deserve their flowers every day, not just once a year.
