Dose of Duality
Every beautiful human is made up of many sides. Public Persona, Private Person. Partner, Independent Human. Creative, Professional. Strong, Vulnerable. Fighter, Lover. On this ever-evolving journey of life, co-hosts Deja Riley + Alicia Ferguson invite you to listen to the Dose of Duality podcast. Together we’ll move through conversations that explore opposing viewpoints, look at both sides of situations and showcase how a variety of emotions and multiple perspectives can coexist within every experience. Wellness, culture, relationships, social issues and more will all be explored together and celebrated. You’ll spend time with very special guest hosts and guests along the way - bringing you a weekly Dose Of Duality.
Dose of Duality
Ep 21 | Nigerian, Catholic & Queer
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
How does a Nigerian, Roman Catholic, homophobic young woman evolve into a fluid, queer, limitless ethereal being? You’ll have to listen in on this special conversation between Deja and Tochi Fatima to find out. We journey through her early years living across Africa, Europe and the Middle East and how she learned to question the boxes she was being placed in by her family, religion and society. Living in America helped her find the freedom to be fully herself and is now happily married to her wife, Lex, and breaking other boundaries and boxes (literally) as an architect. We dissect the duality that is queerness and a serious difference of opinion on cereal etiquette, and we’re not talking Fruit Loops vs. Cinnamon Toast Crunch.
