Being a young adult is already difficult but being Nigerian too? And in Nigeria?!! Can I get a break??? Join me in unpacking this mess weekly...(I hope!) & perhaps, together, we can make sense of it.
31st March 2025 : The first episode of the year and Shame wear me two-piece
A cool Saturday night, Pink Gin, Lemonade and Tonic Water and my favorite girl! She gives an update on Lagos dating and Nysc camp while I add semi drunk comments. Nothing serious just two tipsy best friends and a mic…
September episode in October, who else can?✨✨I sat with You in this episode to discuss a few observations I've made about us and I've come to the conclusion that people-ing might not be my strongest attribute! I don't know about you sha unless you tell me in the comments
Hey guys! Aisha sat with me to give an update to her last episode here. This update was very necessary for all my single girlies who listen to the #DIL series. It highlights her growth and realizing that dating is challenging and maybe taking a back seat while your Eleda/ Chi works it out is not a bad idea.
Hi my beautiful babes! This is dedicated to every one of you who listens to me. I hope you learn a thing or two, love yourself more & learn to see people for who they are. I'm not perfect but circumstances have made me learn about humans earlier than the average Nigerian girl. That being said, stay safe & I love you. xoxo babes
April & I sat with my childhood friend to bring you some tea, laughs, little trauma and hot swear for who?!? Lagos men! Get ready, it's a rollercoaster!
Wake up! It's the first of the month! Hi! It's been forever yeah but I'm here now & I'm trying to show up more here. It's been a rough year but we deyyyyy
I dislike how we have no control over what happens to us as children because those experiences form the core of who we are as adults. It's hard to unlearn these behaviors & learn healthier habits. However, if we choose to remain the same person, to what end? --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/nigerianinmy20s/message
This is life lately & a bit of why I have been absent on here. Anyways, cheers to a better mood & a wonderful year ahead! All of us looking for love, may we find & may it be secure, warm & wonderful!
Yup, you read right! Skincare abi you hate yourself? I think the funniest people are those who believe beauty is fair or light skin. Please educate yourselves & follow @theskinpriest & @iameniolao, they are doing the job of educating people on how to care for themselves properly. A word is enough for a smart human.

“Felizzz na dee dad! Panpan! Felixxxx na dee dad! Tantan! Prosperous wonder Felixx see dad” Jingu bell greetings my lovessss! As you can tell, this is a Christmas episode. I'm sharing tips to surviving Christmas & Black Friday because if you spend all your money in Dec, Jan is 31 days long! Don't over swipe or do “savings or current”. And you better have segtual activities responsibly, I don't know where to do aborshun oo…God be with you❤️
The year is winding up & what better way to end it than me b*tching about how terrible adulthood & family is? Enjoy✨
“When we marry, our kids will be smart” said a man that I just met last week. Sir, disappear in my front! Nobody is desperate for marriage here plis
Hey! Been long you saw me but na Lagos cause am. I'm not describing much here, just know that the dating pool is nonsense. Doings from there should not shock you
Update ooo…shine your eye! Dating a Lagos person is not for the weak my love
Healing is not a straight path & I just realized it. Vulnerability is not a weakness. Admitting that you're slipping & asking for support from friends is not weakness. Healing is messy & by all means, take your sweet time Baby❤️ BTW, Love you Precious
Hi guys! First off, I used my mic wrongly and all the sounds are so loud. I'm so sorry
Chitchat about my small wakawaka in Lagos & where I've been
In a society where we are conditioned & groomed to be mothers & wives, choose to be more! Explore, travel, live independently, date for the fun of it, go on unplanned weekend trips, girl trips etc before choosing to share your life with another person. You're young only once…enjoy each year! Make money & spend it too! Save! Just be independent & happy Baby because marriage comes with responsibilities (big ones). And if you want to marry early, by all means DO! Marry someone who supports you as you grow & learn together. ⚠️BOTTOM LINE: Marry when you are ready & not when your family is ready!!!⚠️ --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/nigerianinmy20s/message

Answering the epic questions “why are men so emotionally laidback & insensitive?” & “why are women so dramatic & sensitive?”, I give you an insight into why we seem so different despite being human beings with almost the same organs
Heavy stuff. Yes, that's all. It comes in 3 parts because I kept adding to the episode. Also, I sniffed a lot because it's morning & I have asthma mahn…clogged airways. Please help me to manage
Warning ⚠️ My eyes got blurry with tears while preparing for this & my heart broke over & over as I recognized some things. I'm doing this for those of us who are confused as to why we act the way we do. Doing this for acceptance, love & healing. Childhood trauma, impact & ways to heal.

Aka Weray dey Disguise! Hey You, did you miss me? No? Ugh, never mind that. I'm here again with something that affects all of us regardless of gender. People that like you & pretend to be your friend instead of coming out straight. Listen, talk let's know what exactly you want because pretending won't get anywhere except earn you disdain & distrust from the person
On today's episode, my friend Dayo takes over the reins of my podcast & I become the interviewee
Yup...you read right. This is an episode about mangoes & the role genotype plays in relationships but yeah Mango
“Sugarbaby”, “Sugardaddy”, “Gigolo”, “Old Cargo”, “Gold Digger” etc are a part of the many words used to describe people in relationships with older or younger people. Should Age really matter in affairs of the heart? Does a huge age difference play a major role in relationships? Are the concerns of family & society grounded in some unspoken rule? Many questions I try to unpack in this episode... --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/nigerianinmy20s/message

Ever heard of the phrase “Love Language”??? Well, this is a beginners guide to this interesting concept & the important role it plays in relationships
Pained? Heartbroken? Sad? Crying? Tired of the flashbacks? Don’t let the pain push you into becoming a bully on the internet. It may seem like a good idea but it is not. It takes you back on your healing journey, makes you look extremely foolish & incapable of emotional control. --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/nigerianinmy20s/message

That tweet you saw that annoyed you, do you need to react? Is it necessary to react?? Ask yourself. Why don’t you feel the need to protect your peace on social media? There are the “block” & “mute” buttons to sanitize your TL, so use them instead of engaging in meaningless word war with strangers! Also, forgive me for the mouth sounds
18 mins of catching up & jokes
We are tired of living in fear. We are tired of being objectified. We are tired of being told that we could have prevented it. Not SLUTS. Not OBJECTS. Not PROPERTIES. Just WOMEN. #justiceforUwa #justiceforBarakat #justiceforJennifer #justiceforTina --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/nigerianinmy20s/message
It’s okay to opt out of a relationship that you no longer excites you. It’s NOT okay to remain in one that you want out of & continue to inflict pain on the other party.
