In this episode, Funmi and Fikemi unpack the emotional reality of living together again as adults: the pressure to "fit back in," navigating independence under your parents' roof, adjusting to a home that has changed while you've been away, and learning to give yourself (and each other) grace through the transition.

They also explore the tension many young adults experience when returning home after living abroad, the evolving role of parents as their children grow into adulthood, and why humility, curiosity, and honest conversations matter more than control.

Whether you've ever dreaded going home, struggled to reconnect with your parents, or wondered how families can stay close through life's changes, this conversation is for you.
