In our ongoing fertility series, we're thrilled to have a special guest—my ever-supportive husband, Taiwo Adedipe, affectionately known as TDawg, TMoney, and Brown Eyes. He's a family physician and public health practitioner. His passion for his wife and work and familiarity with our show make him no stranger to our audience. Switching gears a bit, I invited my husband to join me today to shed light on his perspective as a pillar of support during our infertility journey. 

This episode delves into the emotional complexities that supportive partners face while navigating roles as lovers, supporters, and more, all while remaining sensitive to the challenges of infertility. We discuss the emotional strains and connection hurdles that infertility can introduce.

Wrapping up, we outline the goals of our fertility project and TDawg's initial reaction when I proposed the project. We share some endearing moments, discuss our shared love for pickleball, and offer a few tips for playing the game better. Lastly, we encourage our audience to discover and pursue their passions.

Joining us this week is the remarkable Dr. Damilola Balogun, a true multi-talent and someone we affectionately call "multi-talented" for good reason. She isn't just a dentist and dental surgeon; she's also a partner in her dental practice, an accomplished event planner, and a savvy entrepreneur. Fun fact: She actually planned my wedding 11 years ago, so I'm particularly excited to have her on the show!

During our conversation, Dr. Damilola takes us on a captivating journey through her career path. She opens up about her decision to pursue dentistry, even though nobody in her family had ventured into "a science-related course" before. She candidly shares her challenges and how her unwavering passion for dentistry took shape. She also recounts her journey from being a partner at her previous workplace to her bold entry into the event-planning industry.

We then explore the universal childhood fear of visiting the dentist and receive valuable tips on maintaining optimal oral health from Dr. Damilola herself. Our discussion meanders through her remarkable ability to balance the roles of a mother, dentist, event planner, and entrepreneur. We gain insight into the evolution of her marriage and career.

As our conversation unfolds, Dr. Damilola regales us with captivating event-planning anecdotes. We wrap up our discussion by peeking into the future of her dental practice and event planning ventures. She reflects on her values as a mother and offers valuable advice on instilling those values in her children. Dr. Damilola leaves us with encouragement and affirmation long after the show concludes.

서른 다섯이 되다| The One with Mo! – On Version 3.5: Episode 31 (2021)

Being on the receiving end of questions feels strange but in a good way. I turned 35 recently and decided to have a reflective moment with my friend, Linda.

Linda is back! Linda Jena, my dear friend, and sister, came back from the Proust questionnaire interview with even more deeply reflective questions. Linda is one of the show's most committed supporters. She is from Zimbabwe and is currently pursuing a Ph.D. degree at Texas A&M University in Commerce, TX.

This episode was soul-searching and self-reflective for me. In this episode, we talked about living life, joy, pride, faith, the importance of finding your tribe, and most importantly, learning lessons and moving forward amidst grief and disappointments.

Brace yourself for bolder stories, and please let us know how we can better serve you and what topics you'd like for us to explore.
