Innocent Actions Of Women That Men Take As Flirting || DISCUSSIONS

Men can sometimes get ahead of themselves and misinterpret a woman's actions for flirting. She smiled at you and now you think she wants you to walk her down the aisle. She did a nice gesture and now you want her to meet your mother.😂 You people need to be calming down.🤣 She complimented you doesn't mean she's into you or she's flirting with you. While I'm not generalizing or marginalizing men, I think men need to understand better so you don't think there's green light when the bulb💡 is off. Ladies, what experiences have you had with men misinterpreting your actions for flirting?🙃 Hit the play button and listen to myself and my guest, TRACEY ANYANWU, discuss on "INNOCENT ACTIONS OF WOMEN THAT MEN TAKE AS FLIRTING". Listen, share, and I'll love to hear your feedback in the voice message section.❤💜 Check out The JacquieTalks Podcast on IG and Twitter!!!

Comparison: The Thief Of Joy || DISCUSSIONS

We've all been there. We've all done that. Show me one person who doesn't have an experience with comparison and I'll show you someone with six eyes. For real though, we've all had an encounter where we either compared ourselves to others or compared one person to another. But why compare though? When Theodore Roosevelt said "Comparison is the thief of joy", he wasn't joking. It has made people to feel inferior or superior to others and neither is healthy. Tune in to today's podcast episode where professional makeup artist, IFEOMA IYIACHA and I discuss on the topic "COMPARISON: THE THIEF OF JOY." Listen, share, and I'll love to hear your feedback in the voice message section.❤💜 Check out The JacquieTalks Podcast on IG and Twitter!!!

Building Castles In The Air || DISCUSSIONS

We have ambitions and dreams; and we all envision our future and how it'd be from time to time - how the garage will be filled with luxury cars ranging from Lamborghinis to Bentleys, and more than twelve figures in the bank account. Sounds cool, right? But then, are you building castles in the air? Are those dreams and aspirations you have simply a projection of you not cutting your coat according to your size? Or do you believe it's just you dreaming big?😏 Listen to this episode and I'd love to hear your feedback!

Supporting One's Dreams & Businesses || DISCUSSIONS

We all have dreams and I’m sure some of us here also have businesses or business ideas. Regardless of whether it’s a dream or business, as humans, we thrive with support from others. This support can come from family or friends and can be financial or moral. Unfortunately, this support isn’t gotten always and this can deter someone in chasing his or her dreams, especially if the person is in one way or another dependent. It can also cause bad blood and resentment. What happens to those who do not support your dream or business? Join me and our guest today, MELODY AMAIZU, as we discuss on today’s topic! Share your experiences in the voice message section or leave a message or comment on IG or Twitter @jacquietalks

We are tired! #ENDSARS #ENDBADGOVERNANCE

What are the stops to make and bridges to cross on that journey to your destination? WHAT IS THE MEANS TO YOUR END? Join MezieAfrica and I as we discuss on this.

Respect || STEREOTYPES

We often hear "Respect is reciprocal", "Respect is earned and not demanded". But is this actually practiced in our society? Or do you also think the opinions, thoughts, feelings, knowledge, standards, values and beliefs of the younger ones and subordinates are looked down on by the older ones or superiors simply because the former is not as exposed or experienced as the latter? Have you ever been told the words "You must/should respect me!!!" by someone? Say something in the voice message section. Share too!!!😊

8 Nigerian Stereotypes || STEREOTYPES

In every country, there are stereotypes that people believe whether they are within or outside the country. Nigeria, my country, isn't left out. So here are 8 general stereotypes in Nigeria believed by Nigerians and Non-Nigerians. Saying if they are true or false are MY opinions and I stand to be corrected. Do let me know using the VOICE MESSAGE BUTTON which stereotypes you have experienced as a Nigerian or which stereotypes you have in your own country. Share and I'd love to hear your feedback!!!

Nollywood Mentality || STEREOTYPES

Nollywood (Nigerian movie industry) has had us watching movies where one person looked down on or turned down another because of status or didn't help when it was needed. Then the storyline will go on to show how the person who got rejected becomes well-to-do in future and then whoever rejected or looked down on him, comes back apologizing and asking for mercy but doesn't get it. It's all entertainment with a good lesson but do those stories really play out all the time in reality the way movies tell them? Or are you among those who in reality believe someone who didn't do good to or for you will suffer in life and you go about hoping bad things happen to them? Listen, share and I'd love to hear feedback! Let's relate in the voice message section!😊

Anklets and Waist Beads || STEREOTYPES

A woman who wears anklets or waist beads or both is deemed a certain way by society. The stereotype with this means the woman is seen as "loose", "promiscuous", "diabolical" or "uncultured". Truthfully, some women wear these ornaments to adorn themselves, to make fashion statements or to uphold cultural heritage. But people generally discriminate against these ornaments and some men don't want have anything to do with women who wear them. Do you think there are deeper meanings to wearing them? Do you think women should be allowed to wear whatever it is they like? Do you prefer any of the ornaments to the other or do you like both? Listen, Share and I'd love to hear your feedback.

A Man's Emotions || STEREOTYPES

A man, even from training as a young boy, is told not to be emotional. No matter how a situation might be to make him vulnerable, showing emotion will make society regard him as less than a man. I ask you, what are the pros and cons of this stereotype? How has it affected our male gender? How long will they continue to bottle up their feelings? How should they exercise emotional discipline even when they are being expressive of how they feel?

Marriage || STEREOTYPES

Today's episode talks about the marriage stereotypes in the Nigerian-African community. As a woman, if by 30 or older you aren't married, the society sees you as "OLD CARGO". Even if you are still in your 20's, because you don't want to be seen as OLD CARGO by the time you're 30, you fall into the pressure of finding a marriage partner by any way. Can the same be said for men? Also, there are those who see marriage as the end point of life. They don't believe in having personal goals and achieving them before marriage or even in marriage! Once you're married, you're good to go and that's the end of the road! Well, what do YOU think about these stereotypes? Say something in the "Voice Message" section.😉😊

Home || STEREOTYPES

Stereotypes shape our perspectives and mindset of people, places and things. Sometimes these stereotypes do more bad than good to a person or place's image. Sometimes they aren't even true!😣 Sometimes they are!😂 Today's episode talks about the stereotypes in the home of a Nigerian-African Community.
