  • SHEILA & JACKIE - S5 | E4
    In this week’s episode of So This Is Love, we meet Sheila, a bright and eloquent twenty-something-year-old with the kind of wisdom that grief carves into bone. She tells the story of Jackie, her mother, a woman who made impossible choices in the name of survival but left her daughter unprotected in the hands of a man who wore the title of father like a disguise.Sheila speaks of silence; the kind that settles in childhood and alters the core of naivety. Of betrayal that came not just once, but many times, layered in religion and shame. Of a girl who tried to be believed. Of a woman who became her own witness.This is not a story of blame—it is a story of longing. For safety. For truth. For a version of love that doesn’t hurt.And in all of it, Sheila remains open-hearted. Determined to heal. Determined not to pass down the violence she was handed.This is one of the most powerful stories we have ever told.Consider supporting this podcast via our mpesa till number 9095819 or PayPal ⁠⁠⁠[email protected]⁠⁠⁠If you or someone you know is affected by domestic or sexual violence, find support here: ⁠https://www.instagram.com/s/aGlnaGxpZ2h0OjE3ODUzNDUyODYyMzIwNDA3?igsh=eXkyNWRmZW1lenh5⁠

  • ZURI & JABALI - S5 | E3
    Zuri thought she’d met the man of her dreams in a chance encounter at an immigration office. He was a gentle giant, strong, masculine and towered over her in that way that Zuri always wanted a man to do so to make her feel protected. And he spoke to her directly, with intent, in that way that made Zuri feel chosen. Their love moved fast, but to Zuri, it felt like destiny. What followed was a quiet unravelling, when charm slowly turned to control. This week, we explore the slow erosion of self in the name of commitment, the pressure to settle before you’re “too late,” and the silent cost of being chosen instead of choosing yourself.Consider supporting this podcast via our mpesa till number 9095819 or PayPal ⁠⁠⁠[email protected]⁠⁠⁠If you or someone you know is affected by domestic or sexual violence, find support here: ⁠https://www.instagram.com/s/aGlnaGxpZ2h0OjE3ODUzNDUyODYyMzIwNDA3?igsh=eXkyNWRmZW1lenh5⁠

  • Ella & Makaburi - S5 | E1
    She was the typical fresh-faced, doe-eyed high school graduate eager to embark on a new chapter after completing school. He was a man of God.Right off the bat, Ella is enthusiastic to make herself fully useful in the church. She is swept up in the glow of youthful faith and the promise of a community that feels like home. But when Makaburi, the charismatic leader everyone reveres, draws her closer, the line between spiritual mentorship and something far more sinister begins to blur.In this powerful and unflinching episode, Ella traces her journey through betrayal, silence, and a darkness she was taught to blame on herself. What happens when religious guidance crosses a dark line?This week, Ella shares a story that’s not just shocking—it’s a wake-up call. A powerful, painful, and deeply necessary conversation on grooming, silence, and reclaiming power.Consider supporting this podcast via our mpesa till number 9095819 or PayPal ⁠⁠⁠[email protected]⁠⁠⁠If you or someone you know is affected by domestic or sexual violence, find support here: ⁠https://www.instagram.com/s/aGlnaGxpZ2h0OjE3ODUzNDUyODYyMzIwNDA3?igsh=eXkyNWRmZW1lenh5⁠
