Our TWSS Nigeria host, Teniola Aladase, sits down with the phenomenal Eniola Mafe Abaga, a Nigerian development strategist and unapologetic champion for women’s leadership across Africa, who gets real about the idea that “women can have it all.” She asks the question we’re all thinking: is this really empowering, or just another way society piles pressure on women?

Drawing from her own journey, Eniola breaks down what “having it all” actually looks like for her… and what it definitely doesn’t. 

Spoiler: it’s not what the Instagram highlight reel makes it seem.

In this episode we sit down with Stephanie Busari to talk about radical women, power, and what female leadership really looks like when women stop shrinking themselves to fit the room.From navigating male-dominated spaces to challenging respectability politics, Stephanie reflects on what it takes for women to lead with courage, clarity, and conviction in today’s world.

Good girls don’t make noise.
Good girls don’t protest.
Good girls don’t challenge power.

So what happens when women decide to be bad?

In this episode, we’re unpacking radicalism, activism, and why being “too much” might be exactly what this moment demands.

Hosted by Hafsat Abdullahi, and joined by our TWSS NG Squad Oreoluwa Adetula and Toluwanimi Garba, this conversation asks the hard questions:

• Why are outspoken women still labeled “radical” or “dangerous”?

• Why is boldness celebrated in men but punished in women?

• Is activism the new blueprint for change?

• And what does it really cost women to speak up?

• Why we all need to be more radical.

Press play. Join the conversation. Be a “bad girl.”

Hosted by Teniola Aladese, Tolulope shares her personal journey, lessons learned, and bold advice for women who are tired of being told to “wait” or “settle.

Hey sis, gather round.  
Because apparently… a woman owning a car, earning good money, or having her life together is now “intimidating”? 😂

In this episode, we’re breaking down what it really feels like to navigate a man’s world as a woman who refuses to shrink. From being the only woman in the room to being told your success is “too much,” we’re unpacking all the wild rules society creates for women and why we’re done following them.

Hauwa sits with Ore and Emem for a raw, funny, honest girl-to-girl conversation about money, power, confidence, patriarchy, and the freedom that comes with owning your voice (and yes, your assets 👀).

Sis! ...This week we explore how money shapes ambition, relationships, confidence, and the kind of futures women are allowed to imagine. From cultural expectations to silence and shame, we unpack the subtle and not-so-subtle ways society limits female success.  

Hosted by Teniola Aladese, this conversation is personal, loud, emotional, and honest in a way that feels like gist with your closest girls Veronica Aduoga and Gold Nnena, we’re spilling ALL the tea on:

1. Why so many women are scared to own their ambition
2. The pressure to rely on a man—and the guilt when you don’t
3. How money shapes confidence, choices, and the kind of love you accept
4. Sugar baby culture and the fantasy vs reality
5. The “kept woman” life vs the independent woman life
6. Why some men get uncomfortable around successful women

Girl, if you’ve ever been called “too ambitious,” “too independent,” or made to feel like wanting more makes you less feminine—pull up a chair.

Gurrl! … this one goes out to every woman hustling in the creative world and feeling like the odds are stacked against her. From Nollywood sets to music studios to viral art, women are claiming space, but sometimes the game is shady, the doors are closed, and the stereotypes are everywhere. So how do we flip the script?

Our executive producer Mudzithe Phiri is here to chop it up with two queens who are literally changing the narrative:
Jacinta Olibie – the young creative whose viral work is making the internet stop and stare.
Tiny Braz – music producer and artist proving women don’t just show up, we LEVEL UP

This episode is for the young women dreaming big, for the creatives tired of being silenced, and for anyone who wants to see women run the show, in every way possible.

Sis, grab your headphones… it’s time to claim your creative power

This week on That’s What She Said, we’re flipping through Nigeria’s Political Playbook and asking the hard question:
Why are women still sitting on the sidelines when it comes to political leadership?  

Hosting this powerful episode is Chidera Muoka, your no-nonsense sis who’s tired of the “women aren’t ready” narrative. She’s joined by:
Zainab Taiwo — a young teacher with big dreams (and yes, future president energy).
Ezinne Okoro — a law graduate and born leader who’s already shaking things up beyond the university gates.

Together, they’re keeping it real about what it takes to dream big as a Nigerian woman, when politics keeps telling you to sit small.

So, sis, grab your tea, get comfy, and let’s talk power, patriarchy, and possibility 

From “marriage defines your worth” to “speak softly, you’re a lady,” Nigerian women have grown up navigating a rulebook written long before them.

In this episode, your host Hafsat Abdullahi  social justice poet and global youth leader, sits down with the bold Precious Ejima and the fearless Praise Oyenian to unpack the tension between culture and ambition. Together, they dive into the ways tradition quietly shapes how women think, speak, and lead 

We’re breaking down how cultural expectations around marriage, dress, speech, and inheritance quietly shape a woman’s worth and asking, is our culture preserving identity or limiting potential?

 It’s honest, it’s uncomfortable, and it’s necessary

You know how they say “it’s just social media”? Yeah… we’re not buying that.

Because for so many of us, the digital space is our stage, our business, our diary, and our revolution.

In this episode your girl Hauwa sits down with two powerhouse women, Josephine Lawrence and Oyinkansola Osikoya, to unpack what it really means to be a woman online in 2025.

We’re getting real about:
The pressure to look perfect vs. the power to inspire
Beauty standards, filters, and finding your voice
Turning followers into movements and influence into leadership
 And of course, surviving trolls, patriarchy, and the double standards women face online
