#SDWTS is an edifying, encouraging and entertaining podcast hosted by three young Christian women who are bold enough to share their thoughts and opinions on both spiritual and mainstream topics.

we've heard the statement “women marry who they can, men marry who they want” but we thought we'd go even deeper with the notion that men actually don't marry the loves of their lives but rather out of convenience. what are your thoughts, do you think there's some truth to this or is it a complete lie?
we know you've seen the commentaries/outrage online and if you haven't we thought we'd add our two pence! the highly rated film Sinners that was recently released caused quite a stir on social media not just for good reasons but bad reasons too; from exploring the film's various themes such as colonialism and spirituality, we discuss what it actually meant and whether the outrage was justified. let us know your thoughts down below, have you seen sinners yet & do you agree? If you haven't, why not?
in today's one, we're talking all things friendship; as we get older we recognise that friendships do require A LOT of effort however effort that's worthwhile and long lasting. do you think that people have stopped putting in that effort and distributed it to romantic relationships solely or naturally are we just drifting apart?
in this day and age of social media and everything being documented and caught on camera, anything goes unfortunately. if you've already seen Inside S2 on Netflix, then you'll know what we're referring to; should we, the public, hold influencers/celebrities accountable and how should that look? what should follow and how can it be rectified?
we thought we'd give you an insight into our current faves and what we're currently enjoying, so here it is; from k dramas, movies, TV shows and more! As well as what adulting currently looks like for us and whether we love it here, what's your favourite and least favourite thing about being an adult?
from the BBL aesthetic to quiet luxury; in today's episode we discuss the shift we're seeing not just on social media but in reality too, how brands have moved from pushing a particular type of aesthetic to fit the trends of today, which is the more modest, sophisticated look and what that actually means for society. what are your thoughts, is this shift influencing individuals & making people rethink/rebrand for important life choices?
we're so sorry for the wait but we hope this episode is somewhat worth it! (
do you believe in “the one”? and is there only one person that's for you in this entire world? well that's what we're diving into today and whether we believe in it; from meeting your person, to compatibility, healthy companionship and what that looks like overall! life is built on & around relationship, platonic or romantic they matter! we hope you enjoy this one!
today we're talking the beauty industry and social media! this wave of videos that are finding themselves online critiquing, bashing and/or exposing those in the beauty industry but also the other side of it; the lengths people will go to for a viral moment! we're seeing this more and more nowadays so we had to discuss and dive into it, let us know your thoughts, do people have a right to share their experiences online or has it gotten out of control?
happy new year cherie's, welcome back to another episode of Sitting Down With The Sisters we hope you're enjoying the season so far! we're back with another one and we thought we'd address a video we came across on social media whereby a single mum spoke on not having kids if she knew this would be her situation (of course not to spoil the episode ahead of time so definitely watch/listen for full context). this leads to what we think of the different family dynamics today, parenthood and more!
another lovely guest for ya, we have Helen with us and we're diving into what traditional womanhood looks like; do we consider ourselves traditional women, would we be okay with being a housewife/stay at home mum and men being the financial providers. do you think more women are gearing towards being traditional & is there a shift?
can you believe it guys, 2024 is coming to an end and we couldn't be more grateful for not only your support but just how good God has been! so we had to do our very own Sisters Wrap ft. Tobi, our highlights, what we've learnt, what we're taking into the new year and what we're expecting. please share some of your own highlights and what you're looking forward to in 2025!
today's episode we have another guest for ya and we're talking about secrets in relationships! should you have secrets and if so, to what degree? is it wrong to withhold or do you owe your partner every piece of information that you know? of course we couldn't do this one without a male perspective so we had to have our brother Tobi on.tobi's socials: tobi's instagram @timodulaja
it's the start of a new month and we had to start it off with our first guest of the season and we have the lovely Raphael with us! We explore what it means to date with purpose and what dating looks like as a Christian. Should dating as a Christian look different or can it be approached the same way as it is in today's society?you can find Raphael below:insta @getraphministry @otnarrow / @youthonthenarrowTV @godtv
today's episode we're looking at the pressure we put on individuals within the black community specifically those who don't hold the same "popular" views of the majority and what that means for them. we touch on the elections that took place in America recently, Candace Owens & how the media feeds into this by pushing a narrative and agenda to the wider audiences.
we hope you're enjoying the season thus far! in today's episode we're touching on the music industry and its agenda of conveying a particular message and pushing particular artists that can further feed the toxicity within culture and specifically the black community/culture. what are your thoughts, is music that deep or is it another thing people are overthinking?
what comes to mind when you hear “honour thy father and mother”? is it something you can say you actively do or is it a long lost concept that's being drowned out of our society? today we touch on what it actually means to honour our parents and what it looks like. does it still hold weight for you?
what's the difference between a Christian and a non-believer? should there be a difference between the struggles a Christian and a non-believer experience? should Christians have "easier/better" lives than non-believers? today we touch on what it actually means to be a believer and the hope we have because of Christ and why we believe there genuinely is and always will be a difference! what are your thoughts?
in today's episode we're diving deep into why we like what we like; is social media influencing and dictating what we like or is it because it's genuinely what we like? from the clothes we wear, to our lifestyles, we ask ourselves has social social media negatively influenced us and if so, in what ways? we want to hear your opinions too, so don't forget to join the conversation.
today we're discussing the notion whereby some people believe (and live by) personal information shouldn't be shared i.e. special news, whether it be an engagement or pregnancy. there could be multiple reasons why one wouldn't want to share this with their friends/family and we explore why and what that actually means for one's livelihood. do you think special news HAS to be shared with people?
in today's episode, we ask ourselves "are you a good person?" what does it mean to be a good person, are people good because of their life circumstances, are those that commit crimes bad people? can morality be defined by human beings? we delve into this, breaking down exactly what we believe! we hope you enjoy this one and we want to hear your opinions too!
in today's episode we have an interesting one for ya, can you go to a different church as your spouse? or do you HAVE to be at the same church as each other? can it work? is it the wisest choice long term? is it edifying for your marriage to be at different churches? what are your thoughts, we want to know!
in today's episode we discuss whether we consider ourselves conservative or liberal; from that we touch upon different ideologies flowing from both stances; feminism, abortion etc. and the extremism that can come with it and what we truly think. can you be both liberal and conservative or can you only fall under one? what are your thoughts?
