About this listen
Some stories begin with loss.
And some lives are shaped by what survives after it.
In this raw and deeply human conversation, Pastor Tolu Odukoya opens up about the moments that changed everything — losing her mother, stepping into a calling she never wanted, and the quiet ways God prepared her for what was coming.
She speaks with honesty about:
Knowing her mother was gone before anyone said it
Why she isn’t afraid of death
The real reason she never wanted to be a pastor
Encouraging her father to remarry — and choosing the woman
Sensing her father’s death before it happened
What loss teaches us about living intentionally
This is not just a conversation about ministry.
It’s a conversation about becoming — through grief, through truth, through calling, through courage.
