The Taboo of Casual Dating & Free Loving in African Culture

<p>Things get juicy when Joy from <a href="//www.joytalkslove.com">Joy Talks Love</a> and Journalist/Aspiring Men's Relationship Coach <a href="https://muckrack.com/nicholas-asingwire">Nicholas Asingwire</a> examine sociocultural factors that impact dating and sexual experiences of African men and women. In African culture, we are taught as people, and as a society, that we should find a suitable mate, fall in love, get married, and if you are so inclined, have children, and live happily ever after. The reality is that younger generations who are more liberated are taking different paths and following very non-traditional routes when it comes to dating in general. In this episode, we explore why is it looked down upon if someone takes a different path?</p> <p>—</p> <p>Cohosted by 🎙<a href="https://www.instagram.com/niwaroll" rel="ugc noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@niwaroll</a> and <a href="https://www.instagram.com/afropreneurchi" rel="ugc noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@afropreneurchi&nbsp;</a></p> <p>---</p> <p>Special Guest Psychologist is <a href="//www.instagram.com/allannmwasa">@allannmwasa</a><a href="https://www.instagram.com/hazel_muriro" rel="ugc noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"> </a>- Clinical Psychologist | Ugandan LGBTQ+ Rights Activist | Mandela Washington Fellow 2021 | Tony Elumelu Fellow 2018</p> <p>---</p> <p>Curated by <a href="https://www.joonafrica.com/" rel="ugc noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">JOONAFRICA</a> in partnership with <a href="https://www.muwado.com/" rel="ugc noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">MUWADO</a></p> <p>Sponsored by <a href="https://www.sproutlyconsulting.co/" rel="ugc noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">SPROUTLY</a></p> <p>Powered by <a href="https://mcimediahub.com/" rel="ugc noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">MCI MEDIA HUB</a></p>

Mental Health & Dating in African Culture

<p>Dating someone who struggles with their&nbsp;<a href="https://overlandiop.com/">mental health</a>&nbsp;issues may be challenging, but it is possible to construct a healthy relationship with a solid effort and the proper boundaries. Learn from our fave Ugandan creative writer <a href="//www.instagram.com/moodysilverlining">@moodysilverlining</a> and poet <a href="https://www.instagram.com/lusthepoet/">@lusthepoet</a> about how online <strong>dating</strong> affects <strong>mental health</strong> and behavior. In this episode, we get a better understanding of how it influences body image, self-confidence, and hookup culture and how music, poetry, spoken word, and other art forms provide the healing energies to navigate these convoluted spaces.&nbsp;</p> <p>—</p> <p>Cohosted by 🎙<a href="https://www.instagram.com/niwaroll" rel="ugc noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@niwaroll</a> and <a href="https://www.instagram.com/afropreneurchi" rel="ugc noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@afropreneurchi&nbsp;</a></p> <p>---</p> <p>Curated by <a href="https://www.joonafrica.com/" rel="ugc noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">JOONAFRICA</a> in partnership with <a href="https://www.muwado.com/" rel="ugc noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">MUWADO</a></p> <p>Sponsored by <a href="https://www.sproutlyconsulting.co/" rel="ugc noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">SPROUTLY</a></p> <p>Powered by <a href="https://mcimediahub.com/" rel="ugc noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">MCI MEDIA HUB</a></p>

Attachment Styles in Relationships: What is their role in Adult Relationships?

<p>What is your attachment style? Is it good for relationships or does it set you up for heartbreak?&nbsp;In this episode, we continue to discuss the “Affairs of the Heart”.&nbsp;</p> <p>Culture plays a significant role in the variations observed in the manifestation, expression, and meaning of attachment behaviors. Africa is home to multiple cultures, with distinct organizations of caregiving relationships underlying the development of attachment. Our guest psychologist aims to consolidate knowledge about African attachment by describing recently observed <strong>attachment patterns</strong> in older African adults.&nbsp;</p> <p><br></p> <p>Cohosted by 🎙<a href="https://www.instagram.com/niwaroll" rel="ugc noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@niwaroll</a> and <a href="https://www.instagram.com/afropreneurchi" rel="ugc noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@afropreneurchi&nbsp;</a></p> <p>---</p> <p>Special Guest Psychologist is <a href="https://www.instagram.com/hazel_muriro" rel="ugc noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@hazel_muriro </a>of <a href="https://www.instagram.com/mindful_uganda" rel="ugc noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">mindful_uganda</a></p> <p>---</p> <p>Curated by <a href="https://www.joonafrica.com/" rel="ugc noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">JOONAFRICA</a> in partnership with <a href="https://www.muwado.com/" rel="ugc noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">MUWADO</a></p> <p>Sponsored by <a href="https://www.sproutlyconsulting.co/" rel="ugc noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">SPROUTLY</a></p> <p>Powered by <a href="https://mcimediahub.com/" rel="ugc noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">MCI MEDIA HUB</a></p>
