In this empowering episode of Trybe Talks, Princess Nyah sits down with Narinda, a working mum who gets real about the pressure to do it all — and what happens when burnout finally catches up. From juggling family, career, and identity to learning the power of saying “no,” Narinda shares her honest reflections on what balance really looks like in modern motherhood.

Together, they unpack the invisible load that so many parents carry and talk about why slowing down isn’t failure — it’s survival. Through laughter, vulnerability, and hard-won wisdom, this episode reminds every mum that you’re allowed to rest, reset, and redefine what success looks like for you.
