A video of Ghanaian media personality Efia Odo has resurfaced on social media, showing her emotional and tearful reflection during a 2022 interview with nkonkonsa.com.
In the heartfelt conversation, Efia Odo recounted her experiences growing up in a single-parent household, revealing how those struggles have shaped her into a stronger and more insightful individual. With tears streaming down her face, she spoke about the painful journey that has led to a deep sense of self-worth and self-love.
“I’m thankful for all the suffering because it has brought me to who I am today. I have a profound sense of self-worth now,” she shared. “After enduring such pain, I refuse to put myself in similar situations ever again, as the burden is too great.”
Efia Odo also discussed her approach to forgiveness, acknowledging that while she is willing to forgive and move on from past hurts, her experiences have made her more cautious in her interactions with others. “Even if someone betrays me today, I might still offer them kindness tomorrow, because I recognize their humanity and the inevitability of mistakes,” she explained. “Growing up has taught me that not everyone will love me in the same way I love them, so I’ve had to adjust how I show love and be less open.”
She touched upon her ongoing relationship with her father, noting that while she is making efforts to improve their connection, it remains a work in progress and may never reach the level she desires. “Regarding my father, I’m still making strides. I answer his calls more often now, but it’s not yet where I’d like it to be, and it might never be,” she admitted.
