About this listen

Welcome to It’s Free Period!, a bi-weekly podcast where we chat about personal growth, career moves, along with regular doses of secondary school nostalgia. We’re Mofi, Esther, and Aisha, three Nigerian women who met in Year 8/JSS2 centuries ago (okay, 2005 lol). This is us taking a break to figure life out together, just like we used to during our free periods back in the day. Come hang with us as we catch up, share stories, and navigate all of life’s twists and turns. Get comfy, press play, and settle in!

  • Episode 12: Apply Now, Conceive Later
    Jul 25 2025

    This week’s episode was all about catching up! How did Mofi’s first ìtọ́jú Mentoring event go? How did Esther survive a week of solo‑parenting? And how is Aisha settling into work and life in Nigeria?


    We discussed the realities of childcare in Canada — the hunt for the right daycare and never‑ending waitlists. Aisha and Mofi talked about the “sibling tax” they pay as older siblings, while Esther couldn't relate and proudly admitted to doing the taxing instead. We rounded things off with our summer and future plans (which may or may not include a group trip with you, our listeners 👀).


    We hope you enjoy the episode and yes, the sound quality is better this week 😀 As always, we’d love to hear your thoughts so join in on the conversation by leaving us comments on Spotify or Instagram.

  • Episode 10: Between Grace and Goodbye
    Jun 27 2025

    In this episode, we explore the tension of staying in relationship with people we don’t agree with. Is cutting people off always the answer? What’s the cost of continuing the relationship? Can we draw the line between discomfort and danger? We explore how much grace is expected and whether that grace gets in the way of accountability, especially when there is an imbalance of power. Esther shares why grace and understanding should be at the center of disagreement. Aisha and Mofi ultimately agree but with reservations as they reflect on who is always expected to take on the burden of educating and extending grace, and at what cost. We wrap the episode by sharing our accountability goals and ask ask for grace as we move through them.

    Enjoy the episode and let us know what you think. Thank you for sticking with us for 10 episodes. We’re looking forward to 10 more with you.

  • Episode 9: On do-overs
    Jun 13 2025
    We’re backkkkkk! Catch up on what we each got up to during our month-long break and how successful we were on our accountability goals (Spoiler: Someone may need to lay hands on Esther at this point). We also took a trip down memory lane and discussed the things we might do differently if we had to go through high school all over again. Enjoy the episode and feel free to share your own thoughts on what you would do differently!
