The More Sibyl Podcast Presents: 다시 시작하자, 우리|The One with Mo!Nologue - On Diverse Stories, New Perspectives: Episode 1 (2024)

Dear Mosiblings,

In this episode of The More Sibyl Podcast, we welcome you all to Season 7 with immense gratitude. Reflecting on our journey since April 2018, your support has been invaluable. This season promises engaging and diverse discussions on workplace dynamics, personal resilience, and more. Entering our sixth year and seventh season feels surreal yet immensely rewarding. Reflecting on this journey, I'm reminded of the wisdom shared by Ira Glass about the creativity gap. He aptly described the initial phase of a creative journey as a period where there's often a disparity between our vision and the quality of our work. While it may be discouraging when our efforts fall short of expectations, it's essential to recognize the significance of these early steps in our growth process.

Embracing the imperfections of our early episodes was key to reaching Season 7. This season, we'll continue our authentic storytelling, exploring diverse experiences, asking tough questions, and building community. As we gear up for Season 7, we're expanding our team. If you're a young creative looking to join us in post-production, brand sponsorship, or social media management, send your resume and cover letter to talktomo@mosibyl.com.

On a personal note, the past few months have been filled with both challenges and growth. While I eagerly anticipate sharing my stories with you, some are still in progress to ensure that everyone's privacy and dignity are respected. Season 7 will serve as a celebration of diversity, featuring engaging narratives, and unveiling fresh perspectives.

Thank you for being an integral part of our journey. Here's to an enriching and inspiring Season 7!

아프리카인과 한류| The One with Chulu Chansa – On Africans and Korean Entertainment: Episode 30 (2021)

Africa is a beautiful continent with rich and diverse cultures. We are bursting with stories, but our global impact has had a minimal reach. Chulu and I reflected on our childhood memories as Africans, the evolution of media, and our shared love for Kdramas. Way before The Squid Game garnered the cross-national status it has gained, Chulu and I have more than two decades' combined worth of experience indulging in Korean entertainment. The Squid Game is one example of Korean entertainment's broad reach and acceptability, and we are excited about this.

Chulu Chansa, this week's guest, is a Zambian podcaster, a writer of modern African culture & lifestyle blog, the host of the Africana Woman podcast, a transformational speaker, and mentor. She joined me on this episode to explore the different aspects of the entertainment industry and mostly Korean entertainment.

In this episode, we talked about our favorite shows and what we love about Korean dramas, what African countries can learn from Korea, and the potential of boosting tourism and cultural explorations in Africa via a boon in the entertainment sectors.

Though the views we expressed in this episode are subjective and can change, this episode is generally entertaining, insightful, and nostalgic. It's also a testament that when someone from the southern part of African meets another from the West, it's always a fun time!

PS: Are you a Kdrama lover as well? Have you ever considered learning the Korean language?

슬기로운 의사생활| The One with Dr. Roli Iwere – The Making of a (Nigerian) Medical Doctor & Other Stories: Episode 28 (2021)

Brain drain is characterized by the emigration of highly skilled professionals to other countries. Right now, there is a high rate of doctors being recruited by other countries. Last month alone, the Saudi Arabia health ministry organized a recruitment test in Abuja, where over 500 Nigerian doctors showed up for the interview!

Dr. Roli Iwere, a Nigerian-born-Ghana-trained medical doctor, was a high school friend, and it was great catching up with her after a long while. She shared some of her experiences growing up in Nigeria, schooling in Ghana, and now working as an attending in the US.

In this episode, Roli shared her thoughts about the Nigerian healthcare system, her experience as a medical doctor in the COVID era, and more stories about her connection to Ghana. In addition, you will get to know whose side she picked in the Nigerian-Ghanian Jollof war. If there is anything to take home from this episode is that it is okay to start all over again, with a spoonful of Jollof in tow - the Naija kind.

Listen for more on her exciting stories and share some of yours too if you are an ex-pat or you just love to travel.

진다바드 아프가니스탄| The One with Arzo Yusuf – Zindabad Afghanistan: Episode 27 (2021)

This episode is one intense and emotional conversation about Afghanistan, the veil of oppression, and the US influences. This is about a connection to a home country; it is about untold stories and education.

Arzo Yusuf, my Afghan-American guest, is the Executive Director of Angel's Nest helping foster youth with resources. She is also a social impact entrepreneur of an indie beauty brand, a portion of proceeds is donated to helping foster youth and sex trafficking survivors. She is also a political asylum refugee born in Afghanistan and displaced after the Soviet invasion. In this episode, she shared her story and that of her family. Being born in Afghanistan around the war, her family fled to safety in America, where they eventually settled.

Her connection with Afghanistan, her firsthand knowledge about what is going on in Afghanistan, and her involvement in helping the people in her community are why I chose to have this conversation with her. The media has sold us their story, which isn't always the whole story. This episode is raw, real, informative, and educational all at the same time.

We want you to be a part of this conversation. Share any contribution you have on any social media platform by using the hashtag - #Afghantalk and we will find you.

PS: Thanks to dad, Mr. O.O Ogunsanya for providing some questions to enrich this episode.

Peace,

모 /Mo!/

한부모 가정| The One with Doc. Peace Uche (Again) – On Thriving with a Single Parent: Episode 26 (2021)

The quality of parents' relationships makes a difference to children in many ways. Unfortunately, some people's behavioral patterns have been influenced by the parent's split or constant conflict. However, my guest in this episode has chosen to focus on the positive and consciously set the negative aside.

Doc Peace Uche was on the show earlier this year, and now she's back to share a more personal and vulnerable story about her growing up. She is a doctor of pharmacy, transformational rhythmic speaker, empowerment guru, and radio show personality.

In this episode, Dr. Peace shares with us how growing up in a single-parent household has shaped her life and shared how she hopes to do things differently. This episode will encourage you and inspire you to lead a forgiving and positive life. We also talked about parents' roles in being more active participants in their children's lives above and beyond marital conflicts.

Doc Peace commented that the episode felt therapeutic; we hope it encourages you as well.

Best,

모 /Mo!/

Today's episode is an uplifting story of a woman whose encounter and journey with God made her whole.

작업 역동성| The One With Tutu Popoola - On The Workplace Dynamics Of The “Woke” Generation: Episode 17 (2021)

We are in the digital era, a time when Gen Zers and younger millennials are changing the traditional patterns of the workplace. To discuss this growing trend, I have Tutu Popoola on the show.

Tutu is the Lead Consultant & Founder of SleekHR, an outsourced HR Consultancy for StartUps, Scale-Ups, and B Corps. Businesses hire her to help them make sense of how UK employment law impacts them, remain compliant, and build a great people experience for their employees from entry to exit.

In this episode, we talked about the unique characteristics of the Gen Zers and younger millennials related to their work ethics and heightened awareness of political and social issues. We also considered ways of bridging the generational gap in the workplace and ways employers can adapt to the changing times.

This episode is a must-listen, especially for anyone seeking ways to connect with the younger generation.

요마마 라이스| The One With Judy Jean Kwon - On The Adventures of Korean American in America: Episode 16 (2021)

All over the world, America has been idolized as the country of dreams where stars align favorably, and the grasses are greener. But, unfortunately, Judy's experience was different.

Judy Jean Kwon is an actor, director, and producer. She grew up in a Korean American video store, where she fell in love with the art of filmmaking and storytelling. Born and raised in Los Angeles, Judy split her time between South Korea and America. She started acting at 17 and has since appeared in numerous films and television series and acted in more than 100 commercials.

In this episode, Judy talked about her challenges as a Korean American immigrant, the adverse effects the American system had on her family, surviving systemic racism, and her attempt at promoting Korean American representation in Hollywood. Yet, through it all, Judy has maintained her cheerful side and even taken back the very name that was used to taunt her to rebrand herself as, "Yo mama rice."

Judy's new movie series has an unusual title; find out when you listen. Follow her on IG @yomamarice

여자가 원하는 것| The One with Dr. Taiwo Adedipe and Dr. Ibukun Sonaike – On What Women Want: Episode 15 (2021)

This week we're signing off on The Relationship Series; we hope you have enjoyed the episodes so far. For the final episode of the series, I have Dr. Ibukun and TDawg as my guests.

Dr. Ibukun is from Lagos, Nigeria, where he received his medical degree. He worked as a primary care physician before studying public health and epidemiology at the graduate level. He currently resides in Washington, where he is training in pediatric critical care, and hopes to improve healthcare in resource-limited settings, especially for very sick children.

In this episode, TDawg and Dr. Ibukun talked about their dating experiences. I got to ask them some burning questions that women want answers to regarding situationships, cheating, and what single women are doing wrong in their search for the right man. TDawg also shared some marriage tips with Dr. Ibukun, who is recently engaged.

To round off this series and allow you to interact with the guests, I am hosting a live Singles Panel Discussion this weekend. If you have enjoyed the series, then you are going to love the LIVE show even more.

아버지의 유산| The One with Chief Ganiyu Hassan and Funmi Ajao – On Fatherhood, Life, and Legacy: Episode 14 (2021)

What's a relationship series without an episode that touches on the first relationship we all encounter- family. In honor of Father's Day coming up this Sunday, we have a father-daughter duo to talk about their relationship for the first time ever.

Today we have Funmi Ajao, my friend since College (the Rachel to my Monica), and her dear father, Chief Ganiyu Hassan. Funmi is a pharmacist, widely experienced in clinical and hospital pharmacy practice with over ten years of working experience. Asides from her other interests, she is passionate about mentoring and counseling, which can be attributed to her intimacy with God and her dear dad's impact on her life.

Chief Hassan is an 85-year old Nigerian man who loves his family and country dearly but loves God much more. As a Muslim, he calls for peace and coexistence with others. He's an astute and honest businessman with decades of experience in shipping commodities across the world. Spending time with his family is very important because he's passionate about sharing wisdom and impacting the lives around him.

In this episode, we explored Chief Hassans's role and accomplishment as a dad and granddad, his passion for education, emphasis on love and unity, and his unrelenting faith for a better Nigeria. Chief also dished out parenting advice and some powerful words of wisdom.

Here's wishing all the amazing Fathers out there a very happy Father's Day! And I love you, Dad!

나이지리아의 6월 12일: The One with Adaeze Nnanna On – The Brewing Tensions in Nigeria: Episode 13 (2021)

Nigeria is the most populous black nation on earth and also my homeland. The country has been plagued with security challenges for over a decade, but the condition seems to have worsened over the past few weeks. To discuss this hot topic, I have Ada – an Igbo Nigerian whose tribe was threatened in President Muhammadu Buhari’s (Nigeria’s president) now-deleted vituperative tweet.

Adaeze Nnanna is a lawyer, travel enthusiast, and the founder of Tourmate by Ada the Explorer, a tourism business where she organizes private and group tours in Nigeria and around Africa. She is passionate about cycling and volunteering, especially during her free time.

In this episode, we talked about the heightened state of insecurity across various regions in the country and the nonchalant attitude of the government to address these issues. Ada shared her views on the secession movement, Twitter ban, effects of the current situation on her tourism business, and her sense of belonging as an Igbo woman, and security tips for intending travelers, especially those from the diaspora. Also, in this episode, we delved a bit into the history of the Biafra war and its implications in fueling the IPOB movement in Nigeria.

In times like this, we need all hands on deck and, most importantly, a sense of shared unity regardless of our tribe and geo-positioning; listen to the podcast to find out how you can help.

미혼 여성의 삶: The One with Jirade Bepo - On Being Single: The Female Perspective: Episode 12 (2021)

In continuation of our ongoing relationship series, we will be talking about the female perspective of being single.

Our guest is Mojirade Bepo, a God-lover with a unique and special personality. She studied Hotel and Catering Management at Yaba College of Technology, Yaba, Lagos, and is the CEO of Jirade Diadem; a Catering Outfit specialized in producing indigenous dry snacks. She also doubles as my c̶r̶a̶c̶k̶ plantain chips supplier (erhmerhgerd, they are so delish!).

She enjoys telling edifying stories and is passionate about seeing families well established with priorities set right. For fun, she loves to travel, sing, and dance.

In this episode, Jirade was candid about her journey as a single lady in her early forties, letting us in on the emotional challenges and the social discrimination she has endured on account of being single, as well as how she overcame them. We also talked extensively about how she handled the negative emotions that arose with the wedding of her younger siblings, managing loneliness, and her hopes for the future.

Jirade left nothing on the table in this conversation; listen to get all the details.

PS: If you are in Nigeria and need some decadent dry snacks like p'chips and chinchin, hit my girl Jirade up via here: 08034116905 or on IG @jiradeventures. Trust me, one taste, and you are hooked. Why? Ten years later, I am still hooked, haha.

미혼 남자의 삶| The One with Akinola Akinlawon – On Being Single: The Male Perspective: Episode 11 (2021)

We are dedicating this month to all our single listeners and kicking off this relationship series with the male’s perspective on singlehood. To do justice to this topic is Akinola Akinlawon.

Akin, popularly referred to as “A.K.,” is a technocrat, critical thinker, gaming enthusiast, strategist, and friend with a reputation for being an architect of individual and organizational positive change. He earned his bachelor’s degree with honors in computer science from Cameron University in Oklahoma and has served as a leader in various capacities while being awarded numerously for his visionary involvement, commitment, and academic excellence. He holds a Master’s degree in Management of Information Systems at the University of Houston and owns an independent I.T. consulting business called Digital Designs and Engineering. He spends his spare time as a teacher, pianist, and poet.

In this episode, Akin shared his reasons for being single and was vulnerable enough to give us exclusive information about his previous unsuccessful relationships and the lessons he learned. We also discussed his opinion on males feeling intimidated by independent women, reasons why men “ghost” women, and of course, we attempted to answer the age-old question, “where are all the good guys?”

Akin dropped some hot tips for single ladies who are searching and hoping to be found. Listen and thank him later.

In the words of singer Whitney Houston, "the children are our future," and it's only fitting that we pay them their dues on today's episode, which happens to coincide with Children's Day.

On the show today, we have Elizabeth Bamidele, a 10-year-old who likes reading and being creative. She's a Nigerian but lives in the UK with her parents; she is the founder and creator of her YouTube channel called Sparklight Kids Club. It is a channel with inspirational videos, educational activities, and creative/fun challenges for kids and pre-teens to help build their confidence, develop their creativity and empower them to become better people.

In this episode, we talked about her journey to online content creation, her inspiration and vision for her channel, as well as her creative process. We also learned more about her family and social relationships and how she's helping her community live better lives through her content.

The brilliant Elizabeth had a word for parents and adults seeking a better relationship with their children - out of the mouth of babes, indeed! Find out when you listen and subscribe to her channel (link is in the show notes).

Thank you, Elizabeth, for gracing us with your presence on the show.

내 머리 속의 목소리| The One with Sis – Rising Above the Voices – The Journey So Far: Episode 9 (2021)

Two years ago, we featured the story of a Nigerian lady living with schizophrenia. She chose to be anonymously called Sis (not real name). Many of our old-timers may remember her because we helped raise funds for her medications – and we thank you for responding adequately to this request.

In honor of mental health awareness month, we have Sis back on the show to talk about the journey so far living with schizophrenia for almost a decade.

In this episode, we talked about her present health condition, the effect of the illness on her everyday life and social interaction, her hopes for the future, and how best to support others living with psychosis.

If you are wondering what has become of her mental companions, Yetunde, Emem, and the charming Christopher, you should give the episode a listen.

의학의 이면| The One with Dr. Ibukun Sonaike - The Other Side of Medical Practice: Episode 8 (2021)

The medical profession is undoubtedly one of the most influential and admired professions globally, but what's on the other side of it? My guest, Dr. Ibukun, did justice to this question.

Dr. Ibukun is from Lagos, Nigeria, where he received his medical degree. He worked as a primary care physician before studying public health and epidemiology at the graduate level. He currently resides in Washington, where he is training in pediatric critical care and hopes to improve healthcare in resource-limited settings, especially for very sick children.

In this episode, we talked about the expectations versus the reality of the medical practice, comparing the US health system with that of Nigeria and highlighting areas of improvement and matching into residency programs. We also discussed at length the fine line between humanity and professionalism, striking the work-life balance in a rigorous profession, and what it means to be married to a doctor.

Dr. Ibukun shared some vital career advancement tips relevant to all professions, and Dr. TDawg also made a cameo. Don't miss this episode!
