Tarari Kalango ]]>She quit her job in London with nothing lined up. Three months of unemployment followed. And she wouldn't change a thing.

➡️ In this episode of The Yadah Podcast, I sit down with writer, blogger, and professional Tarari Kalango for a deeply honest conversation about faith, career transitions, creativity, and what it really means to trust God when the path isn't clear.

Tarari shares the story behind leaving her consulting job in London after feeling a strong conviction from God — before having another role secured. What followed was three months of unemployment that she now looks back on as one of the most meaningful seasons of her life. From bonding with family to hosting church small groups to walking into a role that moved her to the US in two weeks — this is a story about what obedience and faith actually look like in real life.

We also get into her journey as a writer, the story behind her Substack blog "God Bless These 20 Somethings," why she believes writing is 90% reading, and the advice her mother gave her about the "destination mentality" — the dangerous idea that happiness is always waiting at the next destination.
If you're in a season of uncertainty, waiting on God, navigating a career transition, or trying to figure out what to do with a creative gift, this conversation will speak directly to you.

Tarari Kalango full<![CDATA[When God Calls You to Let Go of Your Dream Job | Hearing God, Faith & Life Decisions ft. Tome Buluku]]>God spoke to him in a dream… and he said no to his dream job.
➡️ In this episode of The Yadah Podcast, we sit down with Tome Buluku for a very real and honest conversation about faith, purpose, and what it actually looks like to follow God when it doesn’t make logical sense.
Tome shares his journey from Nigeria to the UK and now the US, studying at Harvard and Wharton, building a career in consulting, and being faced with opportunities most people would say yes to immediately. But in the middle of all of that, he felt God calling him in a different direction and had to make a decision that required faith, obedience, and trust.
If you’ve ever wondered how to hear God’s voice, how to make big life decisions as a Christian, or how faith connects to your career and purpose, this conversation will speak directly to you.

We talk about hearing God through prayer, dreams, and quiet moments, and why sometimes clarity doesn’t come the way we expect. As Tome puts it, “Prayer opens up realities to you that you didn’t even know you needed”
➡️ This episode also dives into faith and mental health, the role of therapy in personal growth, mentorship, leadership through service, and what it means to live with intention as a young Christian navigating real life. It’s not about having everything figured out, it’s about learning to trust God step by step. If you’re in a season where you’re searching for direction, questioning your next move, or trying to understand God’s timing, this is a conversation you don’t want to miss.

Ayo & Demi]]>What does healthy male friendship actually look like when it goes beyond surface-level conversations and outdated masculine expectations?

In this episode, we explore how trust reshapes male friendships — creating space for honesty, accountability, and genuine connection. Through personal stories and lived experience, this conversation unpacks the quiet ways masculine stereotypes limit men’s relationships, and how intentional brotherhood can offer something deeper.

We talk about the importance of safe spaces, the role of faith and shared values, and why trust is the foundation of lasting male friendships. This is an honest reflection on what men need from one another, and how friendship can become a place of growth, support, and purpose.

Whether you’re navigating friendship as a man, supporting the men in your life, or simply curious about how community shapes us, this conversation invites you to rethink what connection can look like.
