In this episode, Mpoomy sits down with Blaque Nubon,husband, father, and host of That Husband Podcast, to unpack fatherhood, forgiveness, faith, and what it means for men to truly lead with self-sacrificial love.

Together, they explore how we can raise healthier boys, love men more intentionally, and break generational cycles that have left so many men emotionally unsupported.

This episode is for everyone, whether you’re raising a child, loving a partner, healing from family wounds, mentoring young people, or simply seeking deeper understanding, this conversation creates space for reflection, growth, and healing.

Because healthier men don’t just change homes, they change communities.

At the beginning of the year, Mpoomy shared a screenshot from her Notes App on instagram, which was  a reflection written during the holidays, answering a question many of us get asked: “What would you say to your younger self?”

This solo episode is a gentle, wisdom-filled reflection on those notes, an invitation to slow down, live intentionally, deepen faith, and recognise the harvest already present in our lives.

This conversation reminds us that abundance isn’t found in doing more, it’s found in presence, consistency, discernment, faith, and joy.
