What Your Child’s Teacher Wishes You’d Stop Doing ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Whether you’re choosing a preschool, raising a curious toddler, or simply wondering if you’re doing enough, this conversation is for you. In this episode, I sit down with early childhood educator and founder of Little Explorers, Zakiya Ogunneye, to unpack what every parent should know about the first five years of a child’s life. We talk about school readiness, play-based learning, emotional development, and the everyday habits that shape confident, curious children. If you’ve ever wondered what your child’s teacher wishes parents understood, this episode offers practical wisdom, honest insights, and reassurance that will change the way you think about early childhood. Because raising a child who loves learning starts long before the classroom.

Episode 38: We Need to Talk About Veekee James

Success is easy to admire. The hard work behind it? Not so much. In this episode, I’m reflecting on the people who have quietly reshaped the way I think about work, consistency and excellence—starting with Veekee James. This isn’t an episode about fame or overnight success. It’s about showing up, doing the work when nobody is watching, staying committed through the boring seasons and choosing discipline over shortcuts. We’ll talk about why I’ve stopped chasing the easiest path, the danger of feeling entitled to success, and why I believe hard work will never go out of style. If you’ve been feeling discouraged, overlooked or tempted to quit, I hope this episode reminds you that the work you’re doing today is building the life you’ll thank yourself for tomorrow.

Hey New Mum! You’re not crazy. It’s Matrescence.

In this episode, Feyi explores one of motherhood’s best-kept secrets: Matrescence, the profound physical, emotional, psychological, and spiritual transformation that takes place when a woman becomes a mother. Just as adolescence marks the transition from child to adult, matrescence marks the transition from woman to mother. Why do so many women feel lost after having a baby? Why does your brain seem different? Why do you feel pulled between caring for your child and holding onto the person you used to be? For years, many women have mistaken this experience for failure, weakness, or even “losing themselves,” when in reality, they are going through one of the most significant transformations of their lives. If you’ve ever thought, “I don’t feel like myself anymore,” this episode is for you. You’re not broken. You’re not failing. You’re becoming. 🤍
