This episode is a reflection on life lately, the exhaustion of going through the motions, feeling stuck, and the quiet ache of waiting for breakthrough. I open up about seasons of tiredness, emotional weariness, and how sometimes we search for excitement in the wrong places. But even in brokenness, there’s hope because we can always return to the Potter to be made whole again.

I also share why I believe journaling isn’t just therapeutic…it’s healing when you write to God. Your journal is your journey: a space to track your growth, remember God’s faithfulness, and record your prayers, pain, and progress. After all, how can you count your blessings if you haven’t written them down? This episode is for anyone feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or in need of a gentle reminder that healing is possible and your journal might just be the place it starts.

This episode is a straight-to-the-point episode. Funny enough, I didn’t even record it at home. it came to me while I was on the move, and I had to capture it right there. At first, I thought about naming it “You Can’t Fight This Battle on Your Own,” because that’s exactly what it’s about. In this episode, I talk about the power of prayer not just for the big things, but for everything. I share how I once believed I didn’t need to pray about certain things because they felt like things I deserved like a salary I worked for. But now I know better: everything in life must be prayed about.

I dive into how prayer changes our approach to challenges, including how to deal with difficult people at work, at home, or in everyday life. This episode is a reminder that you don’t need to fight every battle, your battles belong to God. Whether the situation feels close, easy, or already yours, pray without ceasing. Give it to God. That’s where your strength comes from.

In this powerful episode, I tell the story of the prodigal son but with a twist. Have you ever judged a Bible character and thought, “That could never be me”? Yet, somehow, your heart, attitude, or actions mirror their story?

We unpack the journey of the Prodigal son, the believer who, after receiving God’s blessings, drifts away thinking they can do life on their own. From claiming our spiritual inheritance too soon, to squandering what we were never meant to handle apart from God, this episode is a heartfelt call back to the Father.

💭 Through relatable analogies like:

Flying without wings

Branches detached from the vine

Pedaling a bicycle without pushing again

we explore how spiritual detachment might feel okay for a while, but eventually leads to emptiness, exhaustion, and a need to return home.

This episode is a love letter to the ones who wandered. Prodigal Sons and Daughters invite you to come back home to the Father whose arms are wide open.

✨ Whether you’ve been distant, distracted, or doing life on your own strength, this is your reminder: Home is where the healing begins.

On this Children’s Day, we’re raising our voices for those who are often silenced: children brought from villages to cities under the guise of opportunity only to become unpaid househelps, domestic workers, and victims of abuse.

In this HER_stories episode, we speak on stories like Obiageli’s , a child whose life changed overnight when she was taken from her parents and forced into labor. We talk about how normalized this system of child domesticity has become in our homes and communities, and why cheap labor isn’t worth the cost of a child’s life.

This is a call to action for families, neighbors, and leaders to protect childhood, provide proper education, and create real support not hidden servitude.

Children are not househelps. Children are not for rent.

In this episode, we reflect on recent events in Nigeria, including the tragic impact of academic failure and systemic glitches. From stories of students who gave up too soon to moments in our own lives when we’ve asked, “Is it really worth it?”—this episode explores the dangers of tying your identity to one outcome, and the importance of learning how to face failure with resilience.

We also dive into personal choices: career moves, past relationships, and life-changing decisions—urging you to weigh your options not just with logic, but with purpose. Whether it’s going back to your past, giving up on your dream, or settling in negotiations, the real question is: is it truly worth the cost?

I didn’t feel like recording this episode, but I showed up anyway. In this honest and unfiltered conversation, I talk about what it really means to be consistent, even when motivation is low. I share personal updates on completing two courses, growing on LinkedIn, and hitting a milestone of 100 plays on the Her Stories Podcast.

But this episode goes deeper.

I reflect on how communication more than tone or intention shapes our relationships, and how teaching others to speak and listen well can transform how we connect. I also touch on something more tender: recurring patterns of pain and trauma, and the scripture that says, “Affliction shall not rise a second time.” What happens when old wounds try to reappear in new forms? What does healing look like when you’re no longer in a vulnerable place?

From navigating social media pressure as a creative to understanding the weight of our digital footprints, this is a reminder that showing up matters even when no one is clapping.

This is the Consistency Episode, because sometimes that’s the victory: doing it anyway.

In this soul-baring episode… but isn’t every episode?😇 I share a personal journey through the anxiety of graduation, the power of AI in creating a career plan, and the bold decision to take control of my boundaries. From saying “No” without guilt to confronting intimidation at the market, this episode is both witty and weighty. I dive into the importance of assertiveness, how society teaches girls to shrink, and the dangers of silence in the face of abuse. I also reflect on a haunting story of a girl who couldn’t speak up and why our children must be taught to use their voices. Inspired by Chimamanda’s words, “Be kind, don’t be nice,” this is your reminder that kindness isn’t weakness and silence isn’t strength. Plus, a word of encouragement from Genesis 26, Stay where God has placed you, even in famine. There’s purpose in your placement.

Listen. Reflect. Choose You.

In this vulnerable episode, I share a personal testimony! Also shared about heartbreak, healing, and how the Holy Spirit became my comforter when no one else could. I reflect on how God showed up for me not just in answered prayers, but in the quiet, painful moments of emotional pain. We also talk about the value we place on ourselves and how it reflects in the relationships we choose to stay in. Sometimes, walking away isn’t just about them it’s about loving yourself enough to leave. Whether you’re healing from heartbreak, seeking clarity in your relationship, or wondering if God really sees your pain this one’s for you.

This episode is layered with resurrection joy, personal advocacy, and raw faith-filled reflections. I begin with the power of the atoning blood of Christ—how it doesn’t just cleanse but covers completely. I share a childlike analogy I used while teaching at a retreat, and then reflect on a week filled with excitement, weariness, and being unexpectedly called to lead.

I talk about the conversations in our heads—the silly ones, the tired ones, the deep ones—and how sometimes, it’s not about speaking louder, but looking inward. I share my thoughts on advocacy, how the idea of reusable pads was born from a personal experience of not being able to afford pads, and why I believe it’s not just about donation drives, but sustainable impact.

There’s also a moment of vulnerability—when I almost felt discouraged because someone else was doing what I had in mind. But God reminded me that there’s still space, that my voice matters, and that my vision can be unique.

I wrap up with a revelation I had while reading about Isaac and Rebekah—about family patterns that delay God’s promises, and how prayer, insight, and awareness can break those cycles.

This episode of Her Stories Podcast with Chisom is giving real-life gist meets heart talk meets Bible study girl chat.

From being overwhelmed with work and online courses (sis, I nearly gave up — but I’m not quitting!), to reflecting on my wins like revamping my LinkedIn and writing about gender-based violence, it’s been a week of both chill and chaos.

I’m also spilling a very personal story — let’s just say a certain church guy was giving green lights and mixed signals that had me almost putting my life on hold. Whew. But lessons were learned: don’t pause your purpose for unclear intentions, and don’t let vibes confuse your vision.

Then we chat about a sweet BellaNaija-style story that proves being kind is never wasted — but even kindness has its boundaries.

And to wrap it all up? We go straight into Bible girl mode with a mini Bible study on Rebecca — her character, her posture, and the quiet strength in being prepared and positioned.

This episode is funny, faith-filled, and full of gems. It’s for every woman navigating soft life, purpose, people, and maybe a little confusion too. Grab your tea — let’s talk.
