In this week's episode, I pretty much conclude my visit to Nigeria. I tie up lose ends and I exit. One of the major to-do things on my list of 13 things I had to do in Nigeria was meeting some Sweet Potatoes, and thankfully, it happened. It was not perfect, and it almost didn't happen because we only concluded on a venue the night before, and that's why I'm especially grateful for these ladies who showed up from near and far. Next time, it will be more organized. Thank you for coming out, Sweet Read More
Verastic Life #2: Lagos & A Fun Media Tour
The second episode is up, Sweet Potatoes! After I successfully posted the first episode last week, I could not believe it was time to edit yet another episode.

Should I Tell My Friend That Her Husband Is Cheating On Her?

I have been popping pain killers everyday cause I go to bed and wake up with a headache. My nose is stuffy, and my throat hurts from all the sneezing. Ada Verastic gave me the cold, but hers isn't half as bad as mine. Anyway, a Sweet Potato sent me this pressing question about catching her friend's husband cheating, and I have responded via video. Please share your own Read More
Video: Behind The Scenes Of The Listen To Your Mother Show
It's been a week since I was honored to speak at the Listen To Your Mother Show, and I can honestly say that I'm still very high from the event. I wish we could do this every weekend! Before the show started, my heart was pounding gbim gbim like it was going to jump out of my chest, but as soon as my name was called, I walked "majestically" to the podium. In fact, I stood up before my name was completely called. Igwe, Ada Verastic, Grandma, Aunt Chinelo, Aunt Ifeoma, Funmie, and Solachi Read More
