MotherWell Podcast

Mrs. Isioma Aihie, our very first guest and first viral moment on the podcast, returns to the MotherWell couch for a deeply honest conversation about faith, entrepreneurship, and trusting God while building a business.From navigating the realities of running a business in Lagos to learning how to surrender control and lean on God through uncertainty, this episode is filled with wisdom for every woman carrying vision, responsibility, and ambition.We also touch on motherhood in a new season, including life as an “empty nester” whose 21-year-old son has moved back home, turning them into unexpected roommates 😭This conversation is rich, grounding, and a reminder that sometimes faith is the strategy.

Behind the Emmy Nominee: Raising, Seeing & Nurturing GreatnessIn this episode, Feyi sits with Foluso Gbadamosi, mother of Simisola Gbadamosi, Nigeria’s youngest Emmy nominee, for a powerful and deeply insightful conversation on raising gifted children.Together, they explore what it really means to see your children as God sees them, beyond behaviour, beyond pressure, and beyond comparison.This is a conversation about stewardship, not control.About recognising potential early, nurturing it with intention, and creating the kind of environment where children can truly thrive.Foluso shares her journey of raising a child with exceptional talent, the discipline, the discernment, and the quiet work required behind the scenes.If you’ve ever wondered:• How do I recognise my child’s gifts?• How do I nurture them without overwhelming them?• How do I partner with God in raising my children?This episode is for you.Because every child carries something special.The question is, are we seeing them clearly?

Sometimes, you have to bully the bully.In this episode, Feyi talks about modern-day spiritual warfare, the kind that shows up as fear, doubt, insecurity, and the quiet lies we start to believe about ourselves.Because the real battle isn’t always external. It’s internal.This is a reminder of who you are:God’s masterpiece, created in Christ Jesus for good works, which He prepared in advance for you to walk in.When you know that, everything changes.This episode is about standing on truth, rejecting the lies, and taking your power back with faith, boldness, and authority.

This week on the MotherWell Podcast, we’re talking about money, but not in the way you’re used to.I’m joined by Ibi as we unpack the heart behind The Mum Fund 2.0 and why this is more than just an event, it’s a movement. A shift. A call for women to stop sitting on the sidelines of wealth building and start making intentional, collective financial decisions.We talk about what it really means to be “my sister’s keeper” in this season, financially, professionally, and personally, and why community might be the missing piece in how women build and sustain wealth.This episode is honest, practical, and deeply necessary. If you’ve ever felt unsure about money, behind on your financial journey, or like you should be doing more but don’t know where to start, this conversation is for you.Because the truth is, we rise faster, and stronger, together.And maybe, just maybe, this is the moment everything changes. 💫

In this episode, Feyi sits down with Wunmi Durosimi-Etti, A chef founder of Ounje a company putting Nigerian cuisine and hospitality sector at the forefront of global culinary innovation and recognition. In this powerful conversation, Chef Wu shares all about growth, resilience, and rewriting your story.Becoming a mum as a teenager, she had to navigate life, motherhood, and identity all at once. Years later she has forged a thriving career and is making her mark in Nigeria’s culinary space.This is a story of grit, evolution, and becoming. A reminder that how you start does not determine how you finish.

In this episode, Feyi candidly shares all the things she wishes she knew when she became a mum for the first time.From the emotional shifts to the physical changes, the expectations versus reality, and the lessons learned along the way. This is an honest reflection on what motherhood really looks like.Whether you’re a first-time mum, preparing for motherhood, or simply reflecting on your own journey, this episode offers reassurance, perspective, and a reminder that you’re not alone.Because sometimes, the things we wish we knew are the very things that shape us the most.

On this week’s episode, Feyi is joined by her friend and sister Dodos Uvieghara for an honest conversation about building a life and career that doesn’t follow the traditional script.In an episode titled Motherhood & Unconventional Careers, they talk about what it means to pivot, evolve, and pursue paths that may not make sense to everyone else.From unexpected opportunities to bold decisions and seasons of uncertainty, this conversation explores how motherhood can reshape the way we think about ambition, purpose, and success.If you’ve ever felt like your path looks different from everyone else’s, this episode is a reminder that sometimes the unconventional road is exactly where you’re meant to be.

In this episode, Feyi sits down with Dr. Esther Longe to talk about what it means when God is growing your roots.Sometimes growth is loud and visible. Other times, it’s quiet, hidden, and happening beneath the surface. When nothing seems to be moving, when the spotlight is off, when progress feels slow, could it be that God is strengthening you from the inside out?This conversation explores surrender, identity, resilience, and the kind of spiritual maturity that only comes from deep roots.Because when God grows your roots, He’s preparing you for fruit.Tune in for a grounding, faith-filled conversation that will shift how you see your “hidden” seasons. 🌿✨

In this episode, Feyi is lamenting.What do you do when God answers your prayers, just not in the way you imagined?What happens when the plan shifts and you’re left blinking like, “Lord… this is not what we discussed”?This is an honest, slightly dramatic, faith-filled conversation about refining seasons, unexpected detours, and trusting God even when you don’t understand Him.Because one thing about God, there is always more healing.There is always more growth.And as long as You’re the one driving this thing, Lord…Your servant is ready. 🤍✨F7RMi7xTMLAizYMwhaaU

You asked. I answered. No dodging 😭This week’s episode is a full Q&A with questions straight from this community.It’s honest, it’s unfiltered, and it’s very MotherWell.

In this episode, Feyi responds to a powerful question she was recently asked: Can motherhood coexist with fear?Her answer? Fear is a prerequisite.From the moment you conceive, you are afraid. Afraid of losing, afraid of failing, afraid of not being enough. And yet, you show up anyway.This episode explores how fear doesn’t disqualify you from being a good mother. It often confirms how deeply you care. Feyi unpacks the difference between fear that paralyses and fear that protects, and how faith meets us right in the middle of it.If you’ve ever loved your child so much it scared you… this conversation is for you. 🤍✨

It’s 2026 and Feyi Is already going through it. In this episode, she looks back on the lessons and blessings from December 2025 and reflects on the fact that the new year came in swinging. Swaddle is very much overdue (past 40 weeks and still loading), Instagram permanently disabled our accounts, and honestly, nothing is going according to plan.But we laugh. We vent. We regroup. And somehow, God pulls up like, “Relax, I’ve got this.” A reminder that even when things feel shaky, He’s still very much in control.If you started the year already tired, confused, or side-eyeing God just a little… this one is for you. 😭😂🙏🏾

As the year winds down, we slow things down on MotherWell and take a moment to reflect. In this special Christmas episode, Feyi shares her heart on the lessons of the year, the moments that shaped her, and the quiet joys that carried her through motherhood.It’s a gentle conversation about gratitude, faith, family, and finding joy in the midst of the chaos. A reminder to pause, breathe, and celebrate how far you’ve come.Whether you’re wrapping gifts, cooking for loved ones, or stealing a quiet moment for yourself, this episode is your invitation to rest, reflect, and soak in a little Christmas joy. 🎄✨m2BCWer6rte1e5TZLY8V

Send us a textThis week on the MotherWell Podcast, Feyi does something different,  a Bible study turned heart surgery on Isaiah 60.In this passionate, spirit-led episode, she breaks down how this scripture reveals God’s prophetic blueprint for Nigeria: to rise from obscurity into light and glory. But here’s the tension;  the average Nigerian is tired, disillusioned, and done praying for the country. And that’s exactly where the problem lies.Who will tarry in prayer over this nation? Who will believe again?With humour, honesty, and a spark of holy defiance, Feyi shares how God gave her a heart transplant for Nigeria and how she’s now on the lookout for a small company of believers to stand in the gap. (“I don’t need more than seven of you,” she laughs. “If one can chase a thousand, seven can chase a billion and there are only a few hundred million of us anyway!”)It’s bold. It’s heartfelt. It’s a call to intercession for the nation we love to complain about, but that God refuses to abandon.🎧 Listen now on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, and YouTube.#MotherWellPodcast #NigeriaWillRise #BeFruitful #LetUsMotherWell #FaithBasedPodcastHope you enjoyed this episode, Follow Feyi on Instagram MotherWell Swaddle The Luxury Collection
