Thankful that God loved me enough to give me this amazing husband. I'm feeling so so blessed and so grateful. Thank you @gbohunmi_official for being the best 😘🤗.
This song really captures how I feel 😍♥️🥰😍🥹🤗🤩
Ways I bond with my baby girl include singing, dancing and practicing Yoruba and Igbo etc. One of our fave Youtube channels is @graciescorner . I genuinely believe Gracie's Corner is just as much for the kids as it is for us the adults. The music and the animation are top quality. The production, the lyrics are so so good too. True black excellence 😁😁😁😁💃🏽💃🏽💃🏽💃🏽

Sounds of Africa Museum @soundsofafrica1 curated an International Women's event titled “Ownership, Visibility, Legacy: Women in African Music” at the Amazon HQ in London.
I was one of the Panelists. Our conversations highlighted the essential role women play in the African music ecosystem — not just as creators and artists but also as executives, producers, creatives, strategists, and cultural architects.
We discussed authorship, equity, power, sustainability, and the long-term legacy of women in African music.
It was amazing to be in a room full of beautiful and accomplished women. It was such a lovely wholesome evening. It was amazing to share the room with @foladelef@lolamaja@abibabalola@afuathescot@tiffanysiawmisa@rosemariah_78@nanaadjoasikaa@nyashamichelle_@lanur_@gen0vevaumeh
This event reminded me how much I enjoy speaking engagements. One of my goals this year is to do more speaking engagements.
