Foreign Lady
Kilo shele eyin enyo me. Bawo ni? How una dey? In Yoruba that means "Hello my people how are you?" As a Nigerian-American, I started this podcast to give my perspective on different issues affecting women, parenting, relationships, dating, society, and more. I want to start using my voice as a force for change. I'm using this podcast to inform my listeners and to start conversations on difficult and uncomfortable subjects. So join me as I try to figure this podcast thing out while attempting to balance this thing called life.
