Description: After quite the sabbatical, the podcast is back and even better. This week, we are joined by the iconic Nigerian fiction writer and poet, Yejide Kilanko, [https://yejidekilanko.com/] who graces us with her presence this week on the podcast. She gets honest with us about her early days in writing and growing up in Ibadan, Nigeria, as a young woman navigating her own travails before her career took off. In her recent book, Daughter Who Walk This Path, [https://www.amazon.com/Daughters-Who-Walk-This-Path-ebook/dp/B08CGMBJPY/ref=books_amazonstores_desktop_mfs_aufs_ap_sc_dsk_1?_encoding=UTF8&pd_rd_w=wYtcW&content-id=amzn1.sym.9c9a049f-252a-49d9-a8c2-e300a1663200&pf_rd_p=9c9a049f-252a-49d9-a8c2-e300a1663200&pf_rd_r=139-1303763-3702306&pd_rd_wg=WVBFD&pd_rd_r=63e9ffde-d918-4480-9685-5667ea577a3d] she tells the story of the spirited and intelligent Morayo who grows up surrounded by school friends and family in Ibadan. She walks us through all the BTS of writing this book, and we couldn't get enough of it. Enjoy this amazing episode! Key Takeaways: 1. Writing is the purest form of expression 2. Children feel and see everything in the home, and so it is important to ensure that as adults, we curtail our behaviours around them, 3. It is important to surround yourself with strong and authentic role models, especially as women, and with time, they will shape your own voice.
