Welcome to Liberian Girl Unfiltered, where every episode begins with a movie or a song that has shaped, inspired, or challenged me. From classics like Coming to America and Her Sister’s Keeper to unforgettable songs that became the soundtrack to different seasons of my life, I connect the stories we love to the life I've lived. Each movie or a song lyric becomes the doorway into a deeper story.
Have you ever stopped yourself from doing something because you were worried about what people would say? Let me tell you, sometimes the biggest hater is that little committee in your own head!
In this episode of Liberian Girl Unfiltered, I’m getting real about fear, self-doubt, starting over, and learning to show up as your authentic self, even when people are rolling their eyes. From launching my podcast to realizing that life is too short to keep putting our dreams on hold, I’m sharing a reminder we all need to hear.
So whether you want to start a business, launch a podcast, travel the world, or simply step into a new season of your life, this one is for you.
Fire the committee. Stop waiting for permission. Your life is happening NOW! And if they want to roll their eyes, chile, just make sure they don’t strain them watching you grow!

Coming to America: From Liberia to “Siberia”
Coming to America: From Liberia to “Siberia”
What happens when a Liberian girl growing up in America becomes so embarrassed by her accent and where she comes from that she tells people she’s from… Siberia?
Inspired by one of my all-time favorite movies, Coming to America, this episode takes a funny, honest, and sometimes uncomfortable look at growing up between Liberia and America, dealing with stereotypes, bullying, culture shock, and the pressure to fit in. From “Africa” to Kunta Kinte, and eventually reclaiming Salamartu with pride, this is a story about identity, belonging, and learning that your greatest inheritance isn’t what you have; it’s knowing who you are and where you come from.

Bonus Episode: Are We Ok? On Xenophobia, Africa, and What We Owe Each Other
This isn't an easy conversation, but it's one we need to have.
As anti-migrant violence and xenophobic attacks unfold in South Africa, Africans across the continent and throughout the diaspora are asking difficult questions about belonging and our shared humanity. In this bonus episode, I examine what's happening, why it matters, and what it says about us as a continent: fear, history, leadership, accountability, and the responsibility we have to protect one another. This episode isn't about choosing sides. It's about choosing humanity.
Please listen with an open mind and join the conversation.

Liberia - A Rose Pt 2
The story continues. In Part 2, we revisit Liberia, which many remember with nostalgia, a time of a thriving economy, vibrant communities, and simpler times. I'll take you back to my childhood days of playing outside until sunset, listening to folktales, enjoying endless games of Ludo, and rushing home before 6 p.m., not because of a curfew, but because that was when the television came on. Join me as we explore the petals of Liberia's past and reflect on the memories, culture, and experiences that shaped a generation.

Liberia - A Rose with Petals and Thorns - Pt 1
In this episode of Liberian Girl Unfiltered, we begin a journey through Liberia's complex and fascinating history. Using the powerful metaphor of a rose—beautiful yet thorny—we explore the nation's origins, the arrival of freed Black settlers, the indigenous tribes who called the land home, and the foundation of a country shaped by both hope and hardship. Join me as we uncover the petals and thorns that have made Liberia what it is today.
