This episode brings it all together.

We talk about why women and girls are so often failed at the very beginning , from the shocking reality that laws are still needed to stop grown men from marrying 9-year-old girls, to the systems that limit safety, opportunity, and choice. When girlhood isn’t protected, it shapes everything that comes after.

With Ayomide Solanke, we unpack how early injustice connects to why so many women are forced to leave home to thrive, why global platforms become survival and strategy, and why women who make it internationally are still pressured to “give back” in impossible ways.

Pull Up sis

This one matters

Nigerian women are making it to the world stage Grammys, global boards, international rooms we were never meant to enter. And yet somehow, the first question is always.

“Okay but… what have you done for Nigeria?”

In this episode of That’s What She Said Nigeria, we’re getting into the real tea. Why do women often have to leave the country to thrive? Is it survival, ambition, or simply a lack of opportunity at home? And once a Nigerian woman makes it globally does she suddenly owe everyone grassroots impact too?

We’re talking global stars, big leadership rooms, and the unspoken pressure Nigerian women carry to represent, give back, fix systems, and still stay humble.

Pull up, sis.

You’re going to feel very seen

We’re not waiting for the system to finally decide we deserve a seat.
We’re building our own table.

In this episode, Onyeka Nwobu keeps it real, the system wasn’t designed for us, so why are we acting like we’re supposed to fit in?

We talk about:

• Why “waiting your turn” is the biggest lie you’ve been told

• Why you don’t need permission to be powerful

• How to stop chasing validation and start creating your own lane

• What it really means to build a system that works for you

This one is for the women who are done asking, and ready to take.
Press play and get ready to feel a little uncomfortable (in the best way).

You did the school thing. You got the qualifications. You showed up ready to work.

And then the workplace said… lol, good luck.
In this episode of That’s What She Said (TWSS), Chidera Muoka is joined by TWSS Squad besties Temitope and Deborah to unpack the workplace battles women are constantly fighting, from being overlooked and talked over, to navigating office politics and office harassment that’s disguised as “banter,” “jokes,” or “compliments.”

If you’ve ever left work questioning yourself, your worth, or whether you’re asking for too much — this conversation is for you.

Pull up sis. Let’s talk about it

Joined by the host with the most, Teniola Aladase, and our incredible TWSS Squad sisters, Sufiat and Precious, we sit down for an honest conversation about modern womanhood, work, relationships, and the outdated expectations that refuse to leave. From the pressure to “have it all,” to navigating a society that wasn’t built with women in mind, this episode unpacks leadership, financial independence, domestic labour, relationships, and what true partnership should look like today. Pull up a chair, sis.
Let’s talk.

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.”
