Episode 7: Expiry Dates

So apparently women are given deadlines in life that equates them to their value.

This notion is not only derogatory, but also very backward and was brought about by a Narcissistic comment we saw on Instagram where a man said that a woman after the age of 29 is as bad as sour milk.

We take a deep dive into analyzing why a man would be so disrespectful to all women after that age, especially when most African men are raised by the maternal societies

Episode 5: Shaking Off Childhood Trauma

 

This episode looks at the effects of how some things we experience as children, affect us greatly once we are adults.

Sometimes, we even bury the trauma deep inside our hearts as it was too painful and confusing as a child to deal with, and this adversely affects us as adults.

We then see the remnants of our trauma trickle into our day to day lives as adults, and we end up making our current relationships suffer the burden of our pain.
