In this episode, host Bidemi Ologunde examines what respect looks like now through a Yoruba lens, asking how greetings, discipline, voice, consent, caregiving, and boundaries are being renegotiated across generations. When does respect become fear? How can elders guide without silencing? How can young people speak honestly without discarding cultural wisdom? This episode explores how Yoruba families can preserve honor, repair harm, and build relationships where respect survives as love, responsibility, and truth.
