POWER TRAP
Power today. Gone tomorrow. There is a saying that absolute power corrupts absolutely. What I want to talk about today, I don’t think is absolute power. It’s something else. It’s an illusion of power.
WHEN FAMILY BECOMES A WHATSAPP GROUP
THE FAMILY WE USED TO KNOW When I was growing up, family wasn’t just the people who lived in your house. Family was much bigger. There were grandparents. Aunties. Uncles. Cousins. Neighbours. All were family and they were all around us. Today Family is becoming something like a long distance relationship. Where do we go from here?
DECLINE OF DECENCY?
Have we lost our sense of decency? When did modesty become old-fashioned and showing everything become the norm? From pyjamas and bonnets in public to revealing fashion, wedding dresses and the pressure to look forever young, I wonder, have we lost our sense of dignity, privacy and appropriateness? There is beauty in every age. There is beauty in being feminine. There is beauty in being masculine. There is beauty in modesty. And there is beauty in keeping some things private.
Season 15
SHE WALKED SO I COULD RUN
She Walked So I Could Run A Conversation Between Two Generations of Women “She walked so I could run. And perhaps one day, my daughter will run because I dared to walk.”
A TALE OF TWO CITIES - WOMEN OF CHANGE
What can you do today that your grandmother could not do? Women have been instrumental in bringing about change in their countries. Through protest, courage and determination, women fought for political power, social change and a better future. Their resolve in the face of adversity helped pave the way for greater freedoms and opportunities for the generations that followed. But what happens when ordinary women are faced with extraordinary circumstances? Join me as we explore two countries where ordinary women did extraordinary things when circumstances demanded it.
Season 14
THE AFTERMATH OF JONASI
The Aftermath of Jonasi The Polygamist sparked conversations around the world, but what happens after the story ends? Let's look beyond Jonasi's character to the lives he leaves behind: broken relationships, wounded children, damaged trust, and the lasting impact of selfish choices. We also ask difficult questions about healing, accountability, self-worth, and whether cycles of pain can be broken. This isn’t a review of the series. It’s a conversation about the people living with the aftermath, and the hope that healing is possible. What are your thoughts? Join the conversation in the comments.
OWN IT - ACCOUNTABILITY
An explanation is not the same as accountability. Sometimes our reasons are valid. Sometimes they even help people understand us. But understanding why we did something doesn’t remove the need to own that we did it. Accountability isn’t proven by never being wrong. It’s proven by what we do when we are.
DELAYED RECOGNITION DOES NOT MEAN YOU FAILED
Delayed recognition does not mean you failed. Are you in a season where you feel overlooked… unnoticed… or discouraged… Remember this: being invisible is not the same as being insignificant. Your value is not determined by recognition. Your value is not determined by the timing of your recognition. You are not insignificant.
STRENGTH TO CARRY ON
Hello and welcome to Coffee with Temmi. How are you doing? Today, I want to talk to the woman who is tired… the woman who keeps showing up, keeps carrying, and keeps giving, even when life feels heavy. This episode is about quiet strength, unseen burdens, and the resilience it takes to carry on when so much is being asked of you.
DISCIPLINE IS ALSO FEMININE
This episode, explores the idea that discipline and femininity are not opposites. Drawing lessons from the inspiring story of The Six Triple Eight and everyday life experiences, It reflects on the quiet strength of showing up, keeping promises to yourself, protecting your peace, and staying committed even when it’s difficult. A gentle reminder that women can be soft, graceful, and deeply disciplined at the same time.
