Summary
Episode 1 of Season 8 is here !!
In this powerful and personal episode I sit down with the multi-talented Queen Naija for a real conversation about growth, grace, and glowing from the inside out.
We talk about so much from body image, to the pressure to be perfect, mom guilt, and learning to love yourself at every stage. We talk therapy, fasting from social media, honoring our faith, and how she’s shifting the way she shows up as a woman, artist, and mother.
