    In the waiting

    DEAR LISTENER, Welcome to Yourpenship: still becoming. In this episode, “In the Waiting (The Story I Really Wanted to Tell),” Miss Vera takes us behind the pages of her recently launched book to share the heart, inspiration, and story behind it. Waiting is rarely easy. Sometimes, it’s the uncertainty of not knowing what comes next. Other times, it’s watching life unfold for everyone else while you’re still trusting that your own story will make sense. And in the middle of it all, there are lessons, questions, and moments that shape who we become. I opened up a conversation about the waiting season, the stories we carry, and what it means to keep going when life doesn’t happen on our timeline. Because sometimes, the waiting isn’t just the time before the story begins. It’s part of the story itself. We want to hear from you! • Have you ever been in a season of waiting that changed your perspective on life? • What has waiting taught you about yourself, your faith, or your journey? • If your current season of life were a book, what would you title it? We’d love to hear your story. Your experiences, reflections, and lessons might be exactly what someone else needs to hear.

Till next week, Yourpenship

    HOUSING PALAVA: Flat Hunting & Other Near-Death Experiences

    DEAR LISTENER, Welcome to Yourpenship: and in this season of Loving Lagos, this episode captures the grit, humor, and heart of surviving and thriving in Africa’s busiest city. In this episode, we wage war on one of Lagos's greatest trials: the spiritual rite of passage known as house hunting. From "executive mini flats" with no doors to balconies that are literally just a single plank, join me as i dodges fictional agents, near-demolished buildings, and the temptation to accept sheer nonsense just for a moment's peace. It’s a full-body workout for your patience, budget, and last ounce of dignity. If you’ve ever or never been told “ajah to ikoyi is just two bridges away,” been shown a bathroom with no door, or considered sharing a prepaid meter with 15 other people, this episode is for you. 💌 Share your story with us! What’s the worst thing an agent has ever told you? Have you seen a house so bad you had to laugh? We’d love to feature your flat-hunting horror stories on the podcast! 📧 Email us at: [Your Email Address] 📱 Follow and DM us on our socials: YourPenship (@yourpenship) • Instagram photos and videos ——————————————————-YourPenship | Facebook——————————————————-TikTok - Make Your Day 👉 Don’t forget to follow, leave a review, and share this episode with a friend who’s ever lived or worked in Lagos!
