Feeling stuck after the holidays or post-uni life? Same. This episode is all about getting back on track—balancing work, rest, and personal growth while figuring things out. Let’s talk burnout, fitness, self-care, and embracing the journey. Tune in for a real and honest chat! 💫✨
Girllll, I’m backkkk! 🎉 Life after uni has been a whole thing. From navigating jobs, graduation, and big lessons like “faith without works is dead,” to my not-so-restful six weeks in Zim, it’s been a whirlwind. I’m also sharing my vision for this podcast and how I want it to be a space of purpose and mentorship for women like me figuring out life in their 20s. Let’s catch up, reflect, and get ready for the glow-up season ahead! ✨
Unemployment hits different, especially when you’re navigating visa struggles and trying to figure out life in a new country.
In this episode, I'm breaking down how to turn this tough season into a time for growth, self-care, and finding purpose. I’ll discuss dealing with comparison, trusting the process, and celebrating others’ wins while staying hopeful for your own. This isn’t just a setback—it’s a setup for your next big move. Remember, your time’s coming, and the blessings are just around the corner. 💫
YAPPERS UNITE!
Buckle up—this episode is a bit longer than usual, but trust us, it’s worth every minute. We're giving you an unfiltered look into our deep conversation with Tendai about the diaspora experience. We dive into everything from migration patterns to balancing new cultures with old roots, navigating Western spaces, and the complexities of identity when you're far from home.
Tendai shares real talk about the challenges of work, multicultural relationships, and the nuances of DEI (diversity, equity, and inclusion) in the workplace. We even touch on Zimbabwean healthcare, the idea of returning home for good, and how generational shifts are influencing activism. It’s packed with insights, laughs, and moments that will hit home for anyone who’s lived in-between cultures.
P.S. - I wanted to include perspectives that speak to the male experience, so to my male audience enjoy!
After a break, I'm finally back! In this episode, I’m catching you up on where I’ve been, finishing uni, and dealing with the weird post-grad blues. It’s a casual chat about what life’s been like lately and what’s next for me and the podcast. Nothing too deep, just a real catch-up. Let’s get into it!
Soooo this episode is very vulnerable and very honest...it will probably make you laugh, cry but most importantly reflect. I discuss the most common ups and downs of adulting - choosing your own path, and the loneliness that comes with it. I'm a girl's girl through and through so instead of begrudgingly going through this season I have decided to lean into it and embrace where I am at. If you're going through something similar, I hope this episode makes you feel less alone and if you're not going through this feeling I hope you make an effort to check on your friends that are.
Anyway, love and light till the next time! :)
Join me for a candid and heartfelt catch-up episode where I dive into an honest conversations about life recently.

Here goes nothing...but my FIRST book review! This week's episode focuses on the ' Black Girl's Manifesto for Change - Taking Up Space' by Chelsea Kwakye and Ore Ogunbiyi. I genuinely believe that every black girl who is about to go to university, is in university or has graduated needs to read this! It is a book that has a lot of material that equips you with words for certain situations that you may go or have already gone through. It includes topics that I am very passionate about and I hope you enjoy my review as I talk about personal experiences of my own.

So this is a follow-up to my last episode, we are coming full circle people! It's been a very hectic weekend and my voice is a bit hoarse but I hope you enjoy my honest and transparent opinion on the chaos of your 20s. In this episode I discuss graduation blues, changing dynamics between my parents and I, the changes in friendships, updates in my romantic relationship, and personal growth! The only constant in life is change, it's hard but necessary although it may be chaotic it is for the best.
Anyway, see you on the next one!
I'm back on my zoom! This episode is inspired by the current changes that I am experiencing in my life - very scary and very humbling but I think its normal for people in their early 20s to be growing and going through. There's a line in Andy Mineo's song Uncomfortable that reads 'comfort be the thing that'll make a king fall' and I honestly believe that growth does not occur in comfortable places and this is just a period of time where discomfort is necessary. I hope that you enjoy this episode and please feel free to share your thoughts with me!
Also a shoutout to my unofficial manager Tino, my cousin who stays encouraging and pushing me to create content that I love! <3
This one is a bit controversial but it needed to be said! Christina, Rahema and I discuss the touchy subject of staying friends with people who may not necessarily get along and the nuanced stance that often needs to be taken or at least considered.

After a long break I'm backkkk! In this episode I discuss emotional vulnerability and dealing with negative emotions. My episodes are largely based on how I perceive situations and go through life generally and this is one of them. I hope you enjoy and do not forget that it is okay to be vulnerable! Reach out to your community you're not alone <3
Here's to not getting cancelled! 🥂 On this episode I have my lovely friends Sally and Chris and we speak about our uni experience as POC women navigating education, opportunities, social life and dating at a majority white institution. I hope you enjoy the episode and feel free to message me and share your experiences! It's a safe space over here <3
Hello, guess who's back! Today I am with my day one Nyasha, we reflect and discuss settling in romantic relationships. We cover the aspects of culture, peer pressure and insecurities that often lead to women settling for less than they deserve. Nyasha and I are based in different countries and we recorded through the SpotifyforPodcasters app for the first time! So please be kind when it comes to the reviews and opinions :) I hope you enjoy the episode!
Guess who's back!! Thank you so much for over 600 plays I appreciate it so much! This episode is about letting go of academic validation which can be really difficult when it's something you have grown up with and it is a big part of your identity. I unpack some of the ways that I have tried to deal with it and it has been through understanding that this life is meant to be lived (and to achieve). I hope you enjoy the episode and I'll see you on the next one!
The podcast is back with another feature - one of my closest friends, ride or die, and my homegirl <3 - Rahema. In this episode, we discuss friendship breakups, a very painful but common thing that happens during your early 20s. We discuss what we think causes them, how to navigate through the pain, and what we've learnt from the demise of such relationships. I hope you enjoy this episode and take a couple of notes.
Welcome back to another episode! This episode is about how to establish/assert your independence within different relationships in your life be it family, friendships or romantic relationships. I hope this short episode helps you realise some of your personal goals and you enjoyed it.
