Hellllloooo!!!!
I know, I missed you too! This time I came back with a guest, yay! She's none other than Ivy F. Ochieng and she's without a doubt, one of my favorite people!
Some of you might remember her as Ivy from this reel OR as my Kenyan sister/roommate from that reel but she's one of the very first friends I made when I moved to the US and was also my very first roommate in the US...so yes we go way beck! We forgot to mention but she also invited me to join her executive board as VP, Programming while she was President of @jabsatcornell, the African Students MBA club! And sure, I accepted! We served together 2021 - 2022 whilst being roommates (and held all the parties at our apartment, lol)
On a random day after work, I just thought to stop by at Ivy's apartment, order-in dinner and chat/rant about life lately with her. Then I also thought, what if we recorded our conversation, that would be fun, and here we are! It was definitely a much-needed girl time and it reminded me of the good old days in Ithaca as roommates.
As I approach my 1-year anniversary of graduating from Cornell/getting into Google, I'm reminded of the journey that led me here and the people I've come along with on this journey. Thanks for being a solid friend, Ivy and I'm so happy to be doing life in NYC with you!
This was very much a hair let-down, feet-up , wine-in hand kinda episode...and I think you'd actually enjoy listening as much as we enjoyed recording, haha!
With love from New York City,
Tolu & Ivy
P.S: We talk about how/where we first met and it was right here! November 12, 2020 - where the Black Girl Magic all began!
