I Said What I Said

This week, we’re joined by Fareedah Abdulsalam, Product Marketing Manager at Busha, to talk about all things money. We get into our personal money problems, the habits we’ve inherited, investing, the concept (or myth?) of building generational wealth and how finances can shape our friendships and romantic relationships. We also get a little delulu about the levels of wealth we’d love to attain.

The dilemmas don’t disappoint either. One listener is in serious distress after lending her fiancé $10,000, while another has been paying for everything in her relationship only to receive a prayer for her birthday.

It’s a banger as always. Enjoy this special episode brought to you by our friends at Busha! Busha! Busha!

This week, the ladies are joined by Alexis Adelu Sanya-Kawa and Zulu Anyaogu from the Mirabel Centre for a very important conversation on sexual assault, domestic violence and survivor advocacy.

As usual, they start the episode with a quick catch-up, dive into a few listener dilemmas, including some exciting updates from previous entries.

Alexis and Zulu then guide us through the incredible work the Mirabel Centre has championed over the last 13 years as a sanctuary for survivors. They break down the institutional gaps in the system, the challenges survivors face when seeking help and healing, and the legislative reforms required to ensure lasting protection and justice.

This is an eye-opening and deeply insightful episode.

This week, it’s just the girls and they had a timeee.

From Nigeria’s endless stress and FK’s hair drama to Jola’s Abuja adventures, the episode quickly goes from ranting to reminiscing. The ladies get into parenting in the age of social media, Nigerian boarding school stories and the very questionable ways adults treated teenage girls experiencing puberty.

Unsafe spaces are back this week, along with FK’s glow up mission and hilarious dilemmas to round things off.

This week, the ladies are joined by the sensational Chef Demilade Akingbe for a hilarious and completely unfiltered episode.

We kick things off with the heavy realities of living in Nigeria and the big debate over whether public figures actually have a responsibility to speak up.

Things take an extra chaotic turn as the group gets into sex work, oddly specific turn-offs, and Demilade’s iconic grocery store date. For this week's unhinged dilemmas, we tackle the messy fallout of sleeping with a close friend’s younger sister, and toxic exes who suddenly realize you’re wife material. Finally, Demilade spills all the behind-the-scenes tea on her MasterChef Nigeria journey and shares the exciting things she has cooking next for My Friend’s House.

This week, the ladies are joined by Ayanfe for a truly unforgettable episode. We start with a quick catch-up, then get into some dilemmas that go from confusing to completely unhinged. One listener’s husband is refusing to have children until his siblings do, another is grieving her sister while secretly falling in love with the husband she left behind.

Then Ayanfe takes us through his incredible life story, from how he first got to Lagos to ending up in an orphanage after an accident. He shares what daily life was like, the relationships he built there and what it took to eventually reconnect with his family. He also opens up about living on the streets with hustling boys and choosing to hold on to his honest craft instead of going back to that life. It is honest, emotional, hilarious and a beautiful reminder of resilience, grace and finding your way back to yourself.
