Diary of an immigrant

At just 15 years old, Tosan left Delta State, Nigeria, and moved to Canada with no family here to lean on. Twelve years later, she's a nurse with her own podcast, and a story every immigrant needs to hear.

In this first episode of Diary of an Immigrant, Tosan opens up about growing up as an Itsekiri girl from Nigeria, navigating school and college alone in a new country, and the long road to becoming a nurse. She talks honestly about the struggle to get her papers, how therapy helped her through the hardest seasons, and why church and friendships became her lifeline.

For anyone thinking about moving to Canada, or anyone already here and feeling alone, Tosan shares real advice on building community, finding your people, and preparing for the parts of the journey nobody talks about.
