Lisa moved to Nigeria for love. But what happens when the life you move into leaves little room for you to be yourself? In Part 2 of Lisa Gaitho’s story, we pick up where we left off: Lisa is back in Kenya, unsure of what to do next, when she meets a boyfriend and decides to move to Nigeria. What follows is a very different life from the one she grew up knowing. Living with her boyfriend’s family, Lisa encounters unfamiliar cultural expectations, struggles with the pressure to conform, and begins to feel increasingly disconnected from herself. Eventually, she returns to Kenya, where her search for belonging takes another unexpected turn. She becomes deeply involved in Christianity, only to begin questioning some of the beliefs she had embraced.This part of Lisa’s story explores relationships, identity, faith and what happens when finding your place in the world starts to feel like losing yourself. This is Part 2 of Lisa’s three-part story. Catch up on Part 1 before listening, and join us next Monday for the final chapter.

She Quit School, Moved Countries & Questioned Everything She Believed PART 2 | Legally Clueless Ep 396

After eight years of loving someone, what happens when you finally find the answers to the questions you’ve been asking all along? In the final part of Ann Wachera’s story, we pick up after another painful breakup with the man Ann once believed she would marry.Ann tries to move forward. She blocks him. Unblocks him. Goes to therapy. And eventually, the two find themselves back in each other’s lives.Then one day, he comes to Ann’s apartment. When he steps away to move his car, he leaves his phone behind.Ann knows the password. She opens WhatsApp.And what she finds forces her to confront the truth about the relationship she had spent eight years trying to understand. There are multiple women, including women Ann had questioned him about while they were together. There are conversations, photographs and eventually admissions that make Ann question not only who this man was, but who she had become inside this relationship. In this final chapter, Ann reflects on betrayal, waiting until marriage, the difficulty of letting go, the questions she still has, and what healing looks like when part of you still loves the person who hurt you. Ann’s story also leaves us with a bigger question: what does it mean to choose yourself when you have spent years choosing someone who repeatedly did not choose you? This is the final part of Ann Wachera’s three-part story.

I Thought I’d Marry Him. Then I Learned The Truth PART 3 | Legally Clueless Ep 394

What if the shame you carry about your body was never yours to begin with? In this episode of For Mannerless Women, Adelle sits down with Connie Tipis, clinical psychologist and Co-Founder & CEO of Double Dee’s Lingerie Kenya & Uganda for a conversation about body shame, body confidence and learning to come home to ourselves. Connie shares how growing up fuller-busted changed the way she moved through the world. She stopped swimming, covered her body and learnt very early that having breasts could attract judgement, assumptions and shame. That experience would eventually lead her to co-found Double Dee’s and spend the next decade having intimate conversations with women about our bodies from inside fitting rooms across East Africa. Adelle and Connie talk about the ways girls learn to hide their bodies, the striking differences Connie has observed between Kenyan and Ugandan women, wearing beautiful underwear for yourself, mirror work, taking pictures of the body you have today, and why caring for your body can look very different when the goal becomes health and longevity rather than making yourself acceptable to other people. IN THIS EPISODE: – How body shame begins for African girls – Growing up fuller-busted and being sexualised early – Why body shame can stop girls from participating in sports – How our upbringing shapes our relationship with our bodies – What Connie has observed about women in Kenya vs Uganda – African traditions around women’s bodies, sexuality and pleasure – Wearing lingerie for yourself, not somebody else – Mirror work and learning to actually look at your body – Why you should take pictures of yourself now – Choosing strength, health and longevity over appearance – Connie’s reminder to become a “selfless, selfish woman” RESOURCES MENTIONED: Double Dee’s Lingerie — Kenya & Uganda <a href="https://doubledees.co.ke/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://doubledees.co.ke/</a> The Sex Lives of African Women by Nana Darkoa Sekyiamah <a href="https://www.darkoathewriter.com/sex-lives-of-african-women" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://www.darkoathewriter.com/sex-lives-of-african-women </a> Seeking Sexual Freedom by Nana Darkoa Sekyiamah <a href="https://www.darkoathewriter.com/seeking-sexual-freedom" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://www.darkoathewriter.com/seeking-sexual-freedom</a> Share this episode with a mannerless or almost-mannerless woman in your life.
