Summary

I left Nigeria at 18 with two overpacked boxes and a mother who marked both the blessings and the curses in her Bible before she let me go.

Eleven years later I'm back. And this episode is the real story of what those years made of me.

Not the highlight reel. The survival mode. The losses back to back. The rooms I wasn't supposed to be in. The version of myself I lost to hustle and the slow work of finding her again.

If you've ever carried the weight of being the one who made it, this one will find you where you are.
