The Young God

"The [child version of me] is who I go to when I'm lost as an adult... She also helps me raise my children." - Oluwatunmise

In this episode, Rodney has an intimate conversation with his friend, Tunmise Kuku, an author, journalist, life coach, and host of a podcast called Mindfully, with Tunmise.

At 6 years old she suffered the first sexual violation that would trigger a series of unfortunate events that defined the rest of her life. Through it all, she never lost touch with that 6-year-old girl. At 46 years of age, Tunmise is the little girl that survived. For the first time, she opens up about her life experience in great detail — her relationship with her late parents, the sexual and physical abuse she suffered, and how she exorcised the demons before they overcame her. Hers is a one in a million survival story.

An episode about inner child work, trauma, toxic masculinity, motherhood, mental health, passion, purpose, forgiveness, and the invisible hand of God.

"Are you connected to your partner or are you merely attached to them?" - Rodney

Episode 3 of The Young God's Lover's Series is about how our relationship to loneliness affects the quality of our romantic relationships. Rodney states that 1-in-10 couples are actually enjoying their relationship. In order to make sense of that totally made-up stat, he opens the pandora's box of his unpopular opinions about loneliness, dating, romance, intimacy, sex, situationships, and the mindset that 'cockblocks' true connection from taking place.

Once again, Rodney pulls back the curtain of his legendary love life to show how it's done. Use this episode to measure the quality of your relationship and to learn the mindset that enables romance.
