About this episode

The episode explores Faraja's journey of faith, love, and self-discovery within the context of her family's religious beliefs.

Faraja and Nanga is a deeply personal story about faith, love and the quiet courage it takes to choose your own path. Faraja grew up cherished by her father, Nanga, and was the apple of his eye. She was raised in what she remembers as a happy and stable home after her mother’s sudden absence. When her family later became Jehovah’s Witnesses, life shifted in subtle but significant ways. Faraja followed the rules without question until romance, curiosity, and a growing sense of self began to ask more of her. Support this podcast via our mpesa till number 9095819
