In this episode, host Bidemi Ologunde spoke with Funke Kola-Amodu, a longtime friend. The conversation started with some fun ice breakers and then an analysis of some pros and cons of social media in terms of its impact on raising children in the diaspora, positive and negative effects on self-esteem, helping law enforcement officers catch cybercriminals, preference falsification, social comparison issues, and the inadvertent online portrayal of false lifestyles that are not reflected in real-life.

Funke also shared some advice for immigrants on how to adapt, improvise, and overcome the social, cultural, and economic challenges they will face in a new country.

Funke is also the founder and CEO of My Dukiya, an apparel and clothing business that celebrates Black Fashion worldwide. You can find out more on Instagram: @mydukiya and mydukiya.com.
