For the Season 1 finale of They Say I’m Too Loud, I sat down with my mum and grandma to reflect on past episodes, react to my wildest transformations (yes, the braids, the tattoos, the bald head… nothing was off-limits 😅), and dive deep into some of the toughest dilemmas you’ve sent in.
💌 We tackled it all:
Should you charge family for your creative work?
Would you leave love for success abroad?
What happens when you fake your graduation… and the whole family throws a party?
Plus, grandma got real about growing up in the village, mum opened up about being called out for not “speaking enough,” and together we unpacked love, identity, success, and the family values that keep us grounded.
This episode is funny, raw, and a little emotional — the perfect way to close out Season 1. 💜

I sit down with Abena Boamah — Founder of Hanahana Beauty, content creator, and runner — to talk about her journey from growing up with nkuto (shea butter) in her home, to creating one of the most loved Black-owned beauty brands sold at Ulta and featured on Beyoncé’s Black Parade route.

Growing up Ghanaian-American and the way nkuto/yokumi shaped our skincare rituals
Why Abena didn’t start her brand earlier, and what sparked Hanahana’s launch
What ethically sourced shea butter really means and how she’s empowering women in Tamale through fair wages, healthcare access, and tech like kneading machines
The philosophy behind “there’s no need to be ashy” ✨
Running, routines, and how Abena balances wellness with entrepreneurship
Talking money, milestones, and what it feels like to see your brand grow beyond your wildest dreams
Our shared love for Ghana and Abena’s big vision for giving back
