This week on Let's Talk with Avah, I'm asking a question that has genuinely puzzled me for years: how do side chicks cope?

Not from a place of judgment, but from pure curiosity because I know myself well enough to admit that I don't have the emotional capacity for it. We talk about public love versus private validation, why some people settle for hidden relationships, and why I want a love that is loud, intentional, and unmistakably mine.

Somewhere between Instagram anniversary posts, secret WhatsApp messages, and a little emotional chaos, this episode becomes less about cheating and more about self-worth, visibility, and what it means to feel truly chosen.

If you've ever wondered whether you'd survive being "the other woman," or you've simply asked yourself, "How do people do this?", pull up a chair. We're talking about it.
