DANG Members on sex work, relationship, motherhood, abuse | Dear Ife Series Podcast

For this Dear Ife Series podcast we invited three DANG community members for an open conversation about everything and anything, and what made it exciting was how it moved beyond comments on DANG’s social media into a real roundtable discussion. We talked about early beginnings, the influence of social media and how actively we engage on it, interactions with people from different backgrounds, honest opinions on giving men money, and how to curate relationships in a way that allows both partners to truly win and get what they want. While only three community members joined us offline, you are here online and now the conversation continues with you, so share your thoughts and do not forget to like, share, and subscribe.
