    Bedroom Matters: Conversation We Are Shy To Have

    Intimacy is not just physical it is communication, connection, and intentional effort. In this honest and eye-opening episode of HERcast with Dr. Chito, we break the silence around sex, attraction, and the realities many couples face but rarely talk about. Joined by Cecilia Agu, founder of Bedroom Matters International, this conversation explores what truly affects intimacy in relationships from stress and routine to communication and emotional disconnect. Because intimacy doesn’t just fade. It reflects what is nurtured, or neglected. This is not just about sex. It is about understanding, connection, and building healthier, stronger relationships. 💜 🎥 Watch the full episode on YouTube: HERcast with Dr. Chito 📺 Rapid TV | StarTimes Channel 176 Saturday 7 PM | Sunday 2 PM 🎧 Listen on all podcast platforms Follow @hercastpodcast @drchiton #HERcastWithDrChito #BedroomMatters #HealthyRelationships #IntimacyMatters #MarriageConversations #LoveAndConnection Dear HERcast Family, Thank you for being part of HERcast with Dr. Chito—a movement dedicated to empowering and uplifting women.

    The Number One Killer of Women - And We're Still Not Talking About it

    More women die from heart disease than breast cancer. Yet most women never see it coming. High blood pressure normalized. Symptoms dismissed. Prevention delayed. Women are collapsing, and the silence is costing lives. It's time to change that. On this episode of HERcast with Dr. Chito, I sit down with Dr. Iseko Iseko (@drheartmechanic), Consultant Physician, Interventional Cardiologist, and CEO of Cardiocare Hospital Abuja,  for a conversation that could literally save your life. We're breaking down everything women need to know about heart disease, the signs, the risks, the prevention, and why this conversation cannot wait. February may have been Heart Health Month, but your heart deserves protection every single day. And as we honor International Women's Month, this episode is my gift to every woman who shows up for her health, her life, and her future. Because you cannot live fully without protecting your heart.  📺 Watch: HERcast with Dr. Chito on YouTube 📡 Catch us on: StarTimes Rapid TV - Channel 176 Saturday 7 PM | Sunday 2 PM 🎧 Listen: On all podcast platforms Follow for more: @drchiton @hercastpodcast Her Strength.
