Episode 5 - SEN Manhood within the Black Community

Episode 8: Letter To Our Autistic Sons

In this tender episode, Tola and Tiwa write and read love letters to their sons, raw, honest words that hold grief, pride, forgiveness and fierce hope. They speak the things they’ve longed to say out loud: the small joys, the hard truths, and the promises they make for the future. One of the quiet, often unspoken struggles for SEN parents is imagining what life will look like for their child when they’re no longer here. In this episode we don’t wait for that moment; we voice the things we want our sons to remember, whether we are here or not. This is a quiet, heartfelt space for any parent who’s ever needed to name their love, their fear or their dreams. Grab a cuppa (and maybe a tissue), and if it moves you, try writing one of your own, then tuck it away or share it with someone who needs to hear it. 💛

Episode 7 : Sisterhood, Friendship & The Village

Tola and Tiwa share a warm, honest conversation about the power of sisterhood, how friendships hold us, how tribes are built, and what real support looks like for SEN families. Expect stories about moments that have shaped friendships, the importance of having, and being, a good sister, setting kinder boundaries, and practical ways to grow a village that keeps you nourished. Tune in for laughter and real talk about the friendships that help us breathe and bond. 💛

Episode 6: Family Affair: SEN Fatherhood , SEN Grandfatherhood & Culture

In this heartfelt conversation we welcome Tiwa’s dad and Tola’s husband to the mic. They share lived experience of fatherhood and grandfatherhood, as Nigerian men - within SEN families. How culture and faith shape their responses to autism, and the practical ways they try to support the women and children they love. Expect candid reflections on masculinity, the hush around difficult conversations, and actionable suggestions for partners, dads and granddads who want to show up better. This episode is a warm invitation to the whole village — come listen, learn and step forward together. 💞
