Ep 50: Breast ironed at a very young age ft. Ayomide Aremu

Ayomide's breasts were ironed at a very young age which according to the mother, was to ward off men from abusing her by creating an illusion her breasts weren't fully developed like 'that of an adult. It's so sad that these practices are still carried out in this 21st century. I also shared my friend's experience undergoing breast ironing at a young age as well. I'd love to listen to your thoughts on Ayomide's story. Please drop a voice message through any of these links: https://anchor.fm/viola-the-radio-nerd/message or www.podpage.com/calm-down-podcast.

Ep 39: #hiswordforyou - Don't forget to thank God for those things you prayed for when they manifest

Remember those things you've been believing God for, for a long time? Do you recall they've already been answered? Okay, life went by so quickly but the last time you remembered, did you at least pause to take it all in and express your gratitude to God even if it was just 10 minutes of meditation and reflecting back to how faithful he has been. This episode is a reminder that God still appreciates gratitude and most times we don't need to do the most to say thank you to him. A grateful heart is a happy heart.
