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.

프루스트 설문지| The One with Linda Jena – On Self-Exploration with The Proust Questionnaire: Episode 29 (2021)

The Proust Questionnaire, popularized by the novelist Marcel Proust, is a self-exploration questionnaire designed to help people uncover their outlook on life and personality and offer clarity on how they think and what they truly value most in life. Using some questions from the Proust questionnaire, my friend Linda and I explored ourselves.

Linda Jena, who hails from Zimbabwe, is currently getting her Ph.D. in Commerce, Texas. She is not new to the show, and as she cracks me up all the time, I could not think of any other person to do this with.

In this special episode, Linda and I shared some private truths about our personalities. All told, this was a brave expedition of self, bounded within the safety of a friend and sister.

I am curious to know this about you: "If money was no object, what (else) would you be doing in life?"

끝이지만| The One with Linda Jena – On The New Year And Other Stories: Episode 40 (2020)

I am really excited about this episode, not only because it's the last for the year and this third season, but due to the unprecedented last-minute switch that happened. My mom was originally slated for the show, but the epileptic Nigerian network made this impossible. Luckily,

Linda Jena, our Mosibling of the year, who came visiting during Christmas, stepped in, and we recorded an unplanned episode.

Zimbabwean-born, Jesus-loving, Texas-dwelling Linda is rounding off her Ph.D. in education. An introvert committed to the couch-life, we met at a conference for international students, and thanks to my influence, she is gradually becoming more outgoing. #teehee

In this episode, we reviewed the year 2020, her hopes and adventurous plans for the New Year (good-bye to the couch), her unwavering loyalty to the podcast, and her perception of Nigerians.

Linda revealed that she is single and ready to mingle; find out about her 'spec' when you listen.

We will be going on a break but will be back in April 2021 with the show's fourth season. Thank you so much for riding with us this year. We will still be here on Instagram @themoresibylpodcast serving you engaging content, so stay with us.

Happy New Year!!!

Mo!
