In this episode of the show, we have #ChitChatWithMo, our debates segment. I am joined by Cristine Edusi of Blagape and Manny Ade, a gospel music enthusiast and all round creative. We discuss some of the disparities between Christian men and women when it comes to the issue of abstinence or celibacy, as inspired by an article penned by Cristine called “Single, Celibate, Christian men are out of stock”. We explore some of the reasons why this is the case, some potential solutions, and more. Enjoy!

In this episode, we have Jeffrey Boadi, health and wellness guru who experienced the tragic loss of his spouse, Jass. He talks us through his background, how he pivoted into the wellness space, meeting Jass, how she became instrumental to his pivot, their life together, her sad loss and how he grieved and healed utilising wellness practises, leaning on his community online and offline and God.

In this episode, we have #ChitChatWithMo, and I discuss something I have been experiencing recently: social media fatigue. As a content creator and consumer of content, I find the current climate of content overwhelming on both sides. I’m sure  many have been feeling the same too.

In this episode of The MoChunks Show, for #ChitChatWithMo, we discuss some of the pricing of wedding services, including bridal makeup, videography, photography and more. For a while, I’ve held the opinion that the wedding industry needs regulating, especially within our communities as it can come across as exploitative sometimes.

What are your thoughts on some of the pricing of services within the wedding industry? Worth the price or too much at times? Let me know in the comments!

In this episode of The MoChunks Show, we have #ChitChatWithMo. I discuss the resurgence of the housewife, with women getting annoyed at feminism for pushing them out into the workforce when they’d rather be at home. There’s definitely a romanticising of some of the labour that has to be performed even when primarily attending to domestic tasks such as home making, child rearing and more. Enjoy this video essay!

What are you thoughts?

This week on The MoChunks Show, I discuss, Navigating Jealousy. Jealousy, the green eyed monster; an often vilified emotion that without the correct tools to navigate may result in terrible endings. Jealousy is more common than we think and can actually become a healthy, positive emotion, if channelled correctly, towards inspiration or practising contentment, for instance. Enjoy!

What are your thoughts on navigating jealousy?

Are you someone who gets jealous and at what level?

Do you think jealousy can be turned into a positive emotion?

In this week’s episode, for #ChitChatWithMo, I talk about one of the biggest breakthrough afrobeats artist of 2022, Asake! His rise to fame is definitely one that I’ve been observing in awe. To me, his success is a fantastic illustration of the phrase - “luck is what happens when preparation meets a moment of opportunity”. Asake was so ready, that when he met his catalyst, Olamide, things really took off for him.

What are your thoughts?

Have you observed Asake’s success story so far?

Do you find it inspiring?

What other success stories do you know of and love?
