#WithChude

For years people have been asking me: What’s your own story?

This year, I am finally saying yes and sharing a part of my story. The part I think the world needs to hear today.

When my show hit its stride, I stopped saying yes to interviews because I wanted to focus on listening, on hearing, on being a channel for others. I wanted to have something significant to say to the world before speaking again.

I believe that time has come.

My book ‘How Depression Saved My Life’ will be out in April 2025 and it is a memoir of my life from 2014-2024 - a journey that led me through depression, heartbreak, thoughts of suicide, quitting my job as CEO and landing here as host and creator of #WithChude. It tells a story I believe the world urgently needs to hear today.

To help me prepare for the release of the book, I have some heavy hitters starring as guest-hosts on this show - with me as guest. I am honoured by all the people who either offered or said yes.

The first special is with my sister and friend, the chart-bursting actor, producer and director — Omoni Oboli.

She reached out to me last year to say ‘you need to tell your story and I want to interview you’ and it’s because of her that we came up with this special series.

This is one of the deepest, truest, most heart-felt conversations I ever did. We cried, both of us, as I told never-before-heard stories about my life, my emotions, my mother, my career, and the moments when I thought it was all over and I wanted to end it all.

This interview will move and bless you deeply. ❤
