In this episode of the Motherhood Series, host Tinatswe Mhaka sits with Naisula, a Kenyan woman who made the decision to tie her tubes at 27. Naisula shares what it was like to make such a permanent choice at a young age, reflecting on the questions she held, the clarity she felt, and the weight of stepping outside of deeply ingrained cultural expectations of marriage and motherhood. She speaks about her relationship to motherhood, how she came to embrace a child-free life, and the ways this choice continues to shape her sense of self and possibility. Her story opens up a tender conversation about joy, freedom, and imagination: the small pleasures of living life on her own terms, the expansive futures she dreams into being, and the courage it takes to define womanhood beyond motherhood.
