INTOMESEE

I Raised My Two Kids Alone (ft. Laide Oropo)


Listen Later

Laide Alabi (Oropo) calls herself the Warrior. After losing her loving father at 15 and her beloved sister at 19, she found herself married young, divorced quickly, and raising two children completely alone without a blueprint.


In this deeply moving episode of INTOMESEE, Laide shares her journey from a "daddy's girl" whose self-esteem crashed after loss, to a fierce single mother who validates her children's feelings in ways she never experienced. She opens up about the pain of domestic violence, the reality of raising kids with an absent father, and why she refuses to stop sounding like a "broken record" about her past.


This conversation is a masterclass on resilience, the ongoing nature of grief (even 33 years later), and the importance of looking beyond the "brave face" mask we all wear.
