Writer. producer. strategist.
I'm Mbiye Kasonga — a two-time iHeartMedia award-winning podcast producer and the founder of Moyo Media, a boutique production studio built at the intersection of culture, storytelling, and brand impact.
Before launching Moyo, I spent years in corporate marketing strategy and market research, helping Fortune 500 companies turn data into decisions. That background is still the engine under everything I do — strategy-first production that goes beyond good audio
client work
I also make my own shows. Unbound is a bookish podcast celebrating the culture and craft of reading. Sylly, co-hosted with writer Tembe Denton-Hurst, uses books, articles, and cultural moments as a launching pad for unfiltered conversations about identity and what it means to be a Black woman today.

My client work spans beauty, fashion, lifestyle, and culture. I'm the senior producer behind Naked Beauty, iHeart's Best Beauty & Fashion Podcast two years running, and have helped build brand partnerships — including a campaign with Glossier — that earned coverage in Vogue Business, Glossy, and WWD.
