RAMBLINGS OF A WOMAN

As human beings, we want people in our life who will be with us through every event that happens in our life. What we don’t realise is that, just as much as we want those people present in our lives, the people around us also expect us to be present in their lives; going through every moment with them in the best way we can. This building and growing with one another requires a lot of grace, patie...

This episode looks at how we should learn to be thoughtful and caring manner we show for the next person’s needs, emotions and/or circumstances. It touches on how it is important ti think of the next person and how certain things impact them; what appreciation or reciprocation might look like to them.

Today’s episode looks at how I have had to hold space for every good thing that has happened to me. For the longest time, I thought that I had to be perform extraordinary things to feel like I deserved good things happening to and for me. It took away a part of who I am because I felt inadequate and the way other people’s wins looked bigger than mine. I had to learn how to hold space for my wins a...

This is a little pep talk from me to me. This is me saying goodbye to my 20s and looking for every good thing my 30s have to offer. It’s embracing the fact that moments have broken me but they’ve also made me rise up. It’s looking at moments and seeing how they’ve taught me to live the parts of me I deemed as unlovable. NB: My voice sounds the way it is because I was crying.

This episode looks at giving (yourself) in every relationship dynamic you encounter. I referenced myself and experiences heavily in this because as someone who thinks of themselves as a giver, I thought it was important to note that I was giving to everyone except myself. This created a great imbalance within myself which may or may not have contributed to how I was showing up for others.

In this episode I cover dating as a single mom (from my personal experience/perspective) and how there has been certain phrases that have made me double down my approach to dating in its entirety. Like I mentioned, I don’t categorise myself as insecure or anything of the sort, but certain words make you feel like having a preference and expectation as someone with a child is something that should...

I was probably going on and on but overall, this episode looks at giving the people in your life room to grow; this may include mistakes but it’s not inclusive of detrimental mistakes. And this is a different season altogether!!!

This episode looks at choosing what you want in gourmet relationships and understanding your core values, dos and donts as well as your negotiables and nonnegotiables…in a very haphazard way lol.

In a world full of rules and regulations on what sort of people you should date or form relationships with, I think one thing that has gotten lost in translation or isn’t spoken on is the need to be the things we want to experience.

This episode looks at how we should learn to like, love and appreciate the people we call friends. And it touches on how as individuals we should be able to define what friendship means to us. Just like a romantic relationship, friendships are to be nurtured and an amazing experience through it all.

Today’s episode is for Women!! It being women’s month, I would like to speak life to you. Go out there and be the beautiful woman you’re meant to be and experience the finer things in life. NB: I don’t own the rights to this song.

Today’s episode was inspired by another one of Eartha Kitt’s quotes “A man has always wanted to lay me down but he never wanted to pick me up,” and its implications or translation in the simplest way. Using phrases such as “if he wanted to he would” to elaborate my POV and how quite problematic that statement is.

In today’s episode, I touch base on how art impacted my life and personality (which is not very mysterious of me lol).

In today’s episode we look at something I quoted from one Earth Kitt’s video for a complete breakdown from my perspective of course; talking about how “relationships are meant to be earned and not compromised for” plus how she wishes to share herself with someone else. I will be sure to share it on my socials soon. NB: I let you enjoy the music a little longer towards the end lol

Today’s episode sees me speaking *personally* on the humdrum of life and how being away from full time employment affected my mental wellbeing to a certain extent. This is obviously a bit too personal to speak on, but, I hope you surround yourself with people who love you and support you. It’s easy to be cruel to yourself so be kind to yourself and take it one day at a time.

Today’s episode looks at the constant debates between gender and sex roles in relationships or marriages and how they’re being applied. I think it’s important to understand your person and form your relationship/partnership in a way that makes BOTH of you happy.

Today’s episode looks at the big love languages and a personal addition of mine. The take away note is to find ways of loving people in a way that makes an impact in their understanding of love. background audio :(. My voice was incredibly on the lower end of the monotone scale.

In today’s episode we look at the famous question “what do you bring to the table?” I think it’s important to phrase this question inwardly and ask ourselves [read as men] “what do I bring to the table/what does my table look like to start with?” I apologise my voice sounds a bit low, I am battling seasonal allergies.

This episode looks at the dating trends of older men dating girls <25. Kindly note that my opinion is subjective.

In this episode, I highlight certain differences between vulnerability and openness. This also looks at how the two are used interchangeably and can be confused for the other.

NB: There’s feedback on the mic and I apologise for that. This episode looks at the weird dynamics humans have created with regard to relationships. The over complication of how to relate to/with each other.

Speaking on the “gentle parenting” and the weird ways certain aspects of people’s childhood play/ed a role in how they see things.

NB: I apologise for the bits where my audio kept phasing out, my voice felt like it would go. But anyway, the show must go on!! Hyper independence can be such an isolating tool and it cuts down your need for connectivity with the people around you as a way to self preserve and protect yourself. I hope this explains how you can overcome it [to a certain extent] or rather sit with it and find ways t...

Welcome to 2024!!!! This episode being the first episode in 2024, looks at how this question is a “norm” especially in romantic relationships. I think there’s a lot to unpack with regard to this question that I may not have answered in its entirety but I hope there’s some semblance of truth in it that resonates with my audience.
