In this heartfelt episode of Pod For Yah Girl, we’re shouting out every mama for the strength, sacrifice, and spiritual depth you carry—especially in light of yesterday’s emotional Mother’s Day. You are our Go Girl this week!

We also dive deep into a powerful conversation: how do women of color walk fully in their God-given purpose without feeling the need to erase their culture to “fit” the Christian mold?

From building Afrentic to birthing Pod For Yah Girl, I share how culture and calling don’t have to compete—they can co-labor. This one is for every woman navigating purpose, faith, and identity.

Plus, we anchor the episode in the Word with scriptures that show your background isn't baggage—it's the beginning of your breakthrough.

In this episode,2 Nigerian Girls take it home—literally and culturally. Joined by the vibrant and insightful Niekachi Nwogu, My Big Sis! We unpack what it means to grow up African in America. From navigating strict parenting and cultural expectations to celebrating our heritage, we laugh, reflect, and honor the beautiful (and sometimes complicated) journey of embracing both identity and individuality.

💭 We talk:

• The beauty and boldness of African culture

• How faith and family shape our womanhood

• Breaking generational stereotypes while still honoring where we come from

• What we wish more people understood about the African experience

This one’s for the daughters of the diaspora—who carry the sound of drums and the weight of dreams. 💫

🧡 Tune in now for truth, tea, and a whole lot of cultural pride.

In this special episode of Pod For Yah Girl, I'm joined by my girl Kia Pitts for a real and refreshing Christian Girls Chat. We get vulnerable about the bad days we've recently faced — the moments that challenged our faith, tested our patience, and made us question if we were doing enough.

Together, we talk honestly about:

• How bad days hit different when you're trying to walk by faith.

• The thoughts and emotions we wrestle with as Christian women.

• How we’re learning to persevere through the "bad day blues" with prayer, community, and God's promises.

If you've ever had a tough day (or week) and wondered how to keep pushing through while staying anchored in your faith, this conversation is for you. We’re reminding ourselves — and you — that bad days don’t define us, and God's strength shines brightest when we feel the weakest.

✨ Come be encouraged, laugh a little, and leave with a little more hope to carry into your next rough patch.

Does being a Christian mean staying quiet about politics ,poverty, racism, or injustice? Or are we called to speak up?

In this bold and faith-filled episode of Pod For Yah Girl, we break down what the Bible actually says about advocacy, using our signature segments—Pat Yo' Weave, Faith-Filled, and Go Girl. If you’ve been wrestling with whether to speak out or stay silent, this episode will shift your spirit.

It’s time to stop shrinking and start showing up for what matters. Let this word remind you: God is the advocate—but He uses YOU.

In this powerful continuation of our conversation on the “Strong Black Woman,” we shift from culture to Kingdom in our Faith Filled segment.

In Episode 29, Nwugochi dives deep into 2 Corinthians 12:9 – “My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness.” What does it really mean to be strong when you’re constantly told you have to be? Is there room to be soft, vulnerable, and needy—in front of God and your sisters?

We challenge the narrative that strength means silence, and we embrace the truth that God’s strength is made perfect in our surrender.

💭 Topics Covered:

• Biblical truth vs cultural expectation

• The burden of “being the strong one” in every room

• Permission to fall apart and still be favored

• Practical ways to build faith when you feel like you're failing

If Part 1 spoke to your experience, this episode will speak to your spirit. Tune in and tag your sisters—you don’t have to carry it all alone.

🎙️ Pod For Yah Girl

Nwugochi sits down with our GO Girl, Cierra Fly Bobo—entrepreneur, speaker, author, fashion designer, and certified Nonviolence365 trainer—for a powerful conversation on what it really means to carry the title "The Strong Black Woman."

Together, they unpack the layers of strength, vulnerability, and healing through the lens of faith, purpose, and personal growth. From mentoring over 10,000 girls through her organization FLY Life Inc., to making space for storytelling in fashion with her brand June Marie, Cierra opens up about the pressure and privilege of being seen as a source of strength for so many.

💬 In the Pat Your Weave segment, we explore the origin of the “Strong Black Woman” trope—where it comes from, how it's been used to both empower and oppress, and what research says about its impact on Black women’s mental, emotional, and spiritual health.

📖 And in the Faith-Filled segment, we dive into the scripture: “His strength is made perfect in our weakness” (2 Corinthians 12:9)—and what it means to rest in God’s strength rather than perform for the world.

✨ This episode is for every woman who’s ever been told to “be strong” when all she needed was space to feel, rest, or be held.

In this powerful solo episode, Nwugochi Alice Lewis dives deep into the toxic culture of competition and how it hinders the progress of women of color. Instead of seeing each other as allies, many are trapped in cycles of comparison, insecurity, and unnecessary rivalry—and it’s holding us back.

Nwugochi unpacks:
🔥 How competition is rearing its head in our daily lives
🔥 The root causes of insecurity and comparison
🔥 Why collaboration over competition is the key to collective success
🔥 The role of faith and sisterhood in dismantling divisive mindsets

It’s time to shift the narrative and embrace the fact that we are stronger together. This episode is your wake-up call to drop the competition, walk in confidence, and build with your sisters instead of against them.
