Pst. Toluwani Odukoya joined us on the podcast and it was truly an unforgettable conversation. Ife spoke with her about what it means to grow up as a firstborn daughter, navigate life as a pastor and woman of God, and carry the responsibility of leadership that often comes with being the first. There is so much depth, insight, and real-life wisdom in this episode, and you definitely don’t want to miss it. More importantly, this conversation is not complete without you, so we would love for our community to share their thoughts and perspectives.
