We are currently navigating a season of intense spiritual warfare where negative influences are increasingly visible in our daily lives.

In this powerful episode of Let’s Talk Ifa, we strip away the surface-level labels to examine "Demon Time"—a modern term reflecting a deeper crisis of spiritual and moral decay. We discuss how the abandonment of ancestral traditions and codes of conduct has left a void, making our communities vulnerable to external influences and destructive behaviors. From the impact of social media and substances to the lack of communal structure, we explore the forces that contribute to this "zombie" state of existence.

This discussion serves as a strategic call to action. We move beyond the "theatrical" side of spirituality to focus on building tangible solutions: Rites of Passage, independent institutions, and a return to the disciplined raising of the next generation. It is time to move from "showboating" to true nation-building, ensuring that our culture serves as a shield for our children.

Health is wealth.

When the world outside is in chaos, the strength of our community must become our greatest sanctuary.

In this timely episode of Let’s Talk Ifa, we address the anxiety and frustration many are feeling following the recent election. We move beyond partisan politics to offer a powerful wake-up call: it is time to stop giving our power away to a system that wasn't built for us and start investing in ourselves. Guided by the wisdom of Ogunda Meji and Irosun Meji, we explore how to shift our energy from worry toward building "Black Wall Street" models that ensure our survival regardless of who is in office.

The discussion highlights the urgent need to reclaim our power through local action—focusing on independent schools, rights of passage, and economic sovereignty. We dive into the importance of forming communal "think tanks" to solve our own problems and returning to a nationalist mindset where we prioritize loving and supporting one another.

Connecting with those who came before you isn't just a ritual—it's a lifelong conversation that fuels your destiny.

In this episode of Let’s Talk Ifa, we explore the profound importance of Ancestor Veneration and why it serves as the absolute bedrock of African culture and global spiritual traditions. We dive into the reality that the transition from the physical plane to the spiritual realm does not cut off communication; rather, it transforms how we interact with our lineage.

The discussion highlights practical ways to begin your own practice, from the simple act of calling their names to the powerful communal experience of sharing a meal with the departed. We share moving examples of family traditions—such as the annual repaving of a matriarch's grave—that prove you don't need to be an initiate to honor your roots. Whether you are setting your first ancestor plate or looking to deepen your existing connection, this episode provides the clarity needed to walk with the strength of a thousand generations at your back.

Our children are the living bridge to our ancestors—it’s time we build a path for them to cross.

In this episode of Let’s Talk Ifa, we move beyond the "me-first" mentality of titles and flashy clothes to address the critical need for infrastructure for our youth. Guided by the wisdom of Ogunda Meji, we explore the vital roles of families in nation-building where men build, women preserve, and children become the nation. The conversation highlights the immediate necessity for Yoruba-centered education, rites of passage, and the creation of independent schools to ensure our spiritual system remains sustainable.

We discuss why children must be focused, intentional participants in shrines and festivals rather than being distracted by technology. The episode outlines a vision for systemic training through junior councils and departmentalized temples where youth can specialize in everything from rituals to agriculture and business. We also propose a strategic plan for economic sovereignty, calling on the community to pool resources to purchase land and facilities so that our destiny is no longer controlled by outside landlords. Finally, we call for a return to the "village" mindset, where the entire community shares the responsibility of discipline and upbringing to prepare the next generation of leaders.

In this powerful episode of Let’s Talk Ifa, we dive deep into the foundations of Orisha worship in the diaspora. The conversation is sparked by a rare find—the Olorisa Training Handbook from the Oyotunji African Village, written in the early 1980s by the visionary Oba Efuntola Oseijeman Adefunmi I.

We explore the rigorous journey of the Yawo (new initiate), discussing the essential roles of discipline, humility, and character-building that are often overlooked in today’s generation. From the revolutionary roots of the Oyotunji Kingdom in the 1970s to the profound Aboku ceremony—the ritual death of the ego—this episode serves as a masterclass on what it truly means to transition from an initiate to a seasoned priest.

Whether you are a seasoned practitioner or a new seeker, join us as we honor the ancestors and the pioneers who "got it from the mud" to ensure our traditions survived.

Culture cannot survive without unity.

There is power, money, and knowledge in the Ifa / Orisha community—but division keeps it scattered. Unity is not about everyone being friends; it’s about moving with structure, purpose, and shared responsibility.

This conversation calls for collective action: shared institutions, economic circulation, schools, businesses, land, and systems that reflect our values. Other cultures build and protect their communities by working together. The same must be done here.
