E24: Cross-Cultural Motherhood - African Moms Discuss FGM, Pregnancy, and Community

Ndakhte Lo, Mia Guisse, Dieyla - what's the common thread?! Ooohh I was mad today. Seeing these stories of Senegalese artists really annoyed me because it highlights such a problem in our community where we underestimate the importance of marriage!!! SO many women go through this type of pressure and scrutiny in the background, and we never hear their stories. I implore everyone watching to think deeply about these topics and reflect on how we can be better going forward. We rush to be married sometimes so much that the divorce comes just as fast. We have to do better, and our society needs to stand up for these injustices. IDK what these ladies might have done wrong in their respective marriages (nobody is as white as snow) but nobody deserves to be mistreated in this manner. SMH.

In light of Senegal's new and youngest African president, Bassirou Diomaye Diakhar Faye, I wanted to make this quick video to congratulate him and his team and also speak about my experience as someone living in the Diaspora.

For Africans living in the Diaspora, when it comes to family members, close or extended, there's a predicament between financially helping them and putting yourself first. Often times, you have to choose between a combination of external peace and internal turmoil or internal consciousness and external blame. It's not as straightforward as one might think.  Socials: Instagram: @aida.guisse__ Instagram: @jeunemamanpodcast The Jeune Maman Podcast - available wherever you listen!
