The More Sibyl Podcast Presents: 아홉 번째 계절| Season Nine Is Here, And I'm Not Pretending Anymore | Episode 1 (2026)

Season 9 is here. And Mo! is not arriving polished. This season opener is a monologue; no guest, no research framework, no retrospective lessons tied with a bow. Just Mo! sitting with you in real time, naming what has been true for a while, and telling you exactly what Season 9 is going to be.

Here is what is on the table:

The number NINE. Why this season hits different mathematically, culturally, spiritually, and personally. (Hint: Your girl’s turning 40)
A season eight recap that actually means something. The surrogate episode that nearly quadrupled download records, the prostate cancer series, and why ten downloads on one episode still kept her up at night, in a good way.
Dispatches from Seoul. Mo! is in South Korea on a Fulbright US Presidential STEM Scholar appointment, doing research on cancer survivorship at Seoul National University. But something quieter is happening, too: sitting with a traditional Korean medicine practitioner and reckoning with what Korea kept, and Nigeria lost.
The sleep conversation. She's not sleeping. Not a rough week, not jet lag. Something deeper. She's exploring EMDR therapy and asking hard questions about what it means when a high-functioning woman's body finally starts sending invoices.
A preview of season nine. Rest, ambition, identity, faith, and a new series on the quiet ways marriages unravel before anyone says the word divorce.

If you have been calling something fine that is not fine, this one is for you.

The More Sibyl Podcast Presents: The One with Mo!- Mo!nologue II: Unmasking my Thoughts

Another monologue coming your way this week courtesy yours truly. In this episode, I got a bit intimate with the mic and shared a lot of the thoughts circulating in my head. Think of it like I was reading my diary aloud.

So, what things did I unearth in this episode, exactly? A lot, actually. Beginning with some personal reflections on stress, rest, and therapy. I also talked about all the travels I did this summer – spanning 11 cities and states and one foreign country, the 5-week cancer fellowship done at the NIH (National Institute of Health) and the amazing people I met, the implications of my beloved therapist quitting her practice, and how my imminent birthday is giving me major depression vibes.

Finally, I am turning 33 in a couple of weeks and I’d like ALL of the attention from that to go towards my educational scholarship – The 33 Project. My goal is to identify and shortlist 33 indigent children in Nigeria who will benefit from the scholarship for a given period of time. I am hoping to raise $3,300. Look out for more information on that, especially how you can be a part of that (yeah, I need your money :-D), please and thank you!
