About this episode

The episode features Ayanfe sharing his incredible life story and discussing various listener dilemmas.

This week, the ladies are joined by Ayanfe for a truly unforgettable episode. We start with a quick catch-up, then get into some dilemmas that go from confusing to completely unhinged. One listener’s husband is refusing to have children until his siblings do, another is grieving her sister while secretly falling in love with the husband she left behind. Then Ayanfe takes us through his incredible life story, from how he first got to Lagos to ending up in an orphanage after an accident. He shares what daily life was like, the relationships he built there and what it took to eventually reconnect with his family. He also opens up about living on the streets with hustling boys and choosing to hold on to his honest craft instead of going back to that life. It is honest, emotional, hilarious and a beautiful reminder of resilience, grace and finding your way back to yourself.
