    Episode 22: Motherhood and Fear

    In this episode, Feyi responds to a powerful question she was recently asked: Can motherhood coexist with fear? Her answer? Fear is a prerequisite. From the moment you conceive, you are afraid. Afraid of losing, afraid of failing, afraid of not being enough. And yet, you show up anyway. This episode explores how fear doesn’t disqualify you from being a good mother. It often confirms how deeply you care. Feyi unpacks the difference between fear that paralyses and fear that protects, and how faith meets us right in the middle of it. If you’ve ever loved your child so much it scared you… this conversation is for you. 🤍✨

    Dear 2026, better come in here like you have sense!

    It’s 2026 and Feyi Is already going through it. In this episode, she looks back on the lessons and blessings from December 2025 and reflects on the fact that the new year came in swinging. Swaddle is very much overdue (past 40 weeks and still loading), Instagram permanently disabled our accounts, and honestly, nothing is going according to plan. But we laugh. We vent. We regroup. And somehow, God pulls up like, “Relax, I’ve got this.” A reminder that even when things feel shaky, He’s still very much in control. If you started the year already tired, confused, or side-eyeing God just a little… this one is for you. 😭😂🙏🏾

    Episode 16: The Truth About Postpartum: Surviving the 4th Trimester

    People think pregnancy and labour are the most difficult parts of becoming a mum. For Feyi, it’s the first few months after birth, that are the most difficult. In this raw and deeply honest episode, Feyi opens up about her postpartum experience, the exhaustion, the body changes, the emotional fog, and the silent unraveling that so many new mothers walk through alone. She shares what it feels like to lose your sense of self while trying to keep a tiny human alive, and how faith, grace, and community helped her find light again. This is for the mum who’s smiling through tears, the friend who doesn’t know what to say, and the family member who wants to help but doesn’t know how. A gentle reminder to a new mum that this too shall pass. We see you and love you and will hold space for you here. You are not alone
