In this heartwarming episode of Trybe Talks, host Nyah reconnects with her longtime friend and creative powerhouse Shakira Nerissa — a choreographer turned best-selling author, teacher, and mum of three (with another on the way!). From working on iconic music videos to writing hit novels and TV scripts, Shakira opens up about her evolution as a woman, creative, and parent.

They dive into the highs and hard lessons of the entertainment industry, the power of resilience, and how motherhood continues to shape their drive and purpose. With candid reflections on juggling family life, rediscovering creative confidence, and finding strength in community, this conversation is equal parts inspiring and relatable for every parent who’s still “in the trenches” — building, dreaming, and growing.
