À propos de cet audio

In this episode, we explore the layered experiences of life in the diaspora. From the transition out of Nigeria to life in Canada and the UK, we unpack what it means to carry your culture with you and how that culture shifts in new environments. We talk about boarding school life post-Nigeria, navigating the clash between Nigerian and Western values, and the unique challenges of raising children with a sense of identity that spans continents. Esther shares why she prioritises her daughter learning French over Yoruba, while Mofi opens up about her deep need to return to Nigeria regularly even when her queer identity complicates that connection. This episode is about reconciling love for home with the realities of building life elsewhere and how we stay connected, even from afar.
