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.”
Tolulope Adeleru gets real about ambition, success, and financial independence, spilling the tea on what it truly takes to be a woman who refuses to compromise her dreams for anyone. From navigating culture, relationships, and societal expectations to owning your power and building your own freedom, this conversation is honest, raw, and unapologetic.
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 episode is for you.
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:
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
In this episode, we sit down with Lorna, founder of Binti Pads, who is tackling period poverty across Africa and reminding us of the privilege many of us take for granted: having the ability to choose from different pads. While some of us debate wings vs. no wings, countless girls are missing school because they don’t even have one pad.
We talk about dignity, access, and the reality of period poverty, plus the small but powerful ways we can change the narrative around menstruation.
Sis, let’s be real—how is something as natural as menstruation still surrounded by so much stigma, shame, and misinformation? From the rollercoaster of getting your first period, to the awkward hush-hush conversations in families and schools, to the reality of period poverty—this episode gets raw.
We’re busting myths, spilling truths, and asking the big questions: Is period pain exaggerated? Should men really stay out of period convos? And why are we still embarrassed about bleeding?

We sit down with Bidanya Barasa — girl boss, cancer survivor, and wellness advocate who doesn’t play when it comes to her health. After her cancer journey, Bidanya’s approach to life completely shifted. She’s intentional about balance, mindful about nutrition, and bold about saying no to hustle culture when it threatens her wellbeing.
Sis, let’s be honest — there is no reward for being the “Strong Black Woman.” We’re expected to grind, hold everyone down, and never break… but at what cost?
In this episode of That’s What She Said, we’re talking to you, girl — the one chasing the bag, building the dream, but also craving softness, ease, and love that lets you exhale. Can African women really have it all? Can we be both ambitious and spoiled?
At 28, Nelly Naisula made a choice most African women are told is too bold — she decided she never wants children, and made it permanent by tying her tubes.
In this unapologetic, real-talk conversation, Nelly opens up about:
Sis, motherhood has always been sold as the ultimate “you’ve made it” badge for women… but lately, more and more young African women are asking, “Is it actually for me?”
In this unfiltered convo, we’re pulling up a chair for both sides:
The mamas — riding the rollercoaster of pregnancy, childbirth & those sleepless newborn nights
The child-free queens — owning their choice, breaking traditions & building life on their own terms
From cultural pressure to the price tag of raising a child, to the new definitions of legacy & fulfillment — this two-part heart-to-heart gets real.
What if you could test for STDs from the comfort of your own room—no awkward clinics, no judgment, no waiting weeks for results?
This week on That’s What She Said, we’re joined by biotech innovator Violette Defourt, the brilliant mind behind a 15-minute at-home STI self-test kit that’s changing the game for young women everywhere.
Let’s be real—STDs are awkward to talk about, but silence is way worse.
Too many of us are navigating our sexual health in the dark because of stigma, fear, or straight-up lies we were told in school (or never told at all ).
Think only “promiscuous” people get STDs? Think you'd definitely know if you had one?
Think again.
In this episode, we break the shame and spill the facts:
Sis… can we talk?
Sex is everywhere — in the music, the memes, the movies. But when it comes to actually talking about it? It’s still whispers, awkward silences, and way too much guesswork.
From the gaps in sex ed to the pressure to perform, to reclaiming pleasure as a right (not a reward) — we’re unlearning, unpacking, and saying it all. No filters. No shame. Just real talk.
If you’ve ever felt confused, silenced, or lowkey faking it — this one’s for you.
