Growth and Embracing Change

When we look back on how far we've come in life, many of us just really feel nostalgic, I mean, I do. More than that though, I realized today how important it is for us to acknowledge to ourselves the difference in our lives. Mentally, Emotionally, Career wise, Financially and Spiritually. To actually take note, to laugh, maybe even cry but to pay attention. Listen as I share.

Is it as easy to see the good as it is the bad? 

So I am a firm believer that we control our reactions to stuff. Circumstances, people and all. I got a fresh perspective reading a book. Listen as I share thoughts.

Thanksliving: Actually really being thankful

"Make visible what, without you, might perhaps never have been seen" 
Robert Bresson. Today as some form of not being overly focused on the things outside our control, I have learnt that living thankful lives makes us happy and more productive. Listen as I share.

Focusing on Stuff we cannot control 

Sometimes we learn the best lessons from not too good moments. Listen as I share my lessons

While we are Waiting 3 (Waiting and Gaining Strength)

Today I talk about rerouting as something we could do in this time. It's amazing how there is strength in waiting and strength in uncertainty. Listen to my thoughts.

While we are waiting 2

Today I talk about waiting as preparing, tarrying, expecting and forseeing. I contrast with wasting (time, opportunities and resources).

While we are Waiting

So today, I begin a series on waiting . I have had to think a lot recently about all my plans and how uncertainties are taking over. I share deeply my thoughts because I think this is a period when we just wait. Waiting can be depressing or uplifting. I hope mine is uplifting, follow this space as I share.

Stuff to get you through this time 4

Tried out music... Tell me what you think.

Stuff to Get you Through this Time 3: Mummy says.

Today is so special, as in this time of social distancing, I got my mom to record an episode with me 🙊🙊🙊.... Check out my new episode. And check out Mother😂.

Stuff to Get you through this Time 2

Listen in

Stuff to get you through this time

So, I thought to share stuff that would help all of us in this time. Listen in

The Pandemic and A Christian

So this is not my regular content, but I figured this is a time for people to be together (albeit not physically though) and I thought I'd lend my voice. Listen in, I hope I share hope, I hope we stay careful.

Now and Tomorrow

Today we talk about the places we are at now and the places we hope to get to... Listen to our Now and tomorrow... Ohhhhh... I had guests😍😍😍

Women and Capacity: The virtuous Woman

Listen to Christian Women share their views on gender equality and the need for women to draw strength from each other...

Bad days, struggles, battles and God

What do you do when you start to feel suffocated? That stuff is not working... That your process is scary? Listen as I share

People and Mindspaces

The bible says to guide our hearts with all diligence, and I say to us to guide our mind spaces with all diligence too. Listen as I share.

Losing Stuff and Hope

What do you do when you lose the ability to do the only thing you felt you could do almost flawlessly? What if you lost your voice? Or your good looks? What if you lost your freedom (you actually go to prison)? What if you lost a loved one? What if you lost your sight? What on earth would you do? Listen as I share Hope.

The Strength in Weak Ties

So, mathematical sociology teaches us that in interpersonal relationships, there are strong ties, weak ties and absent ties. I find the weak ties theory really interesting though and I share with us what I think about it. Today, I talk to us about people who we meet on our way to fulfilling purpose, people who may not stay in our lives but who genuinely just existed in it at the said time to help us. And we could also be part of another person's circle of weak ties... Understanding this makes life a little less complex, listen as I share.

People who uplift

I have talked about a lot of stuff in the last 40 episodes but never really about the right relationships. Today, I talk to us about our associations, and the importance of letting people who uplift us stay in our lives... Listen in

Visioning 3

An effective vision needs to be: Inspiring, strategically sound, Documented and communicated... Listen in as I shed more light.

Visioning 2

The importance of writing down our visions is so we waste no time. Today though, we go steps further. So we don't stop at writing, we get physical pictures of all the stuff we want to achieve and we make VISION BOARDS... We run when our minds see pictures, but we fly when our eyes see pictures.

Visioning 

So today I begin my podcast for 2020. It's a new season and so, I talk to us about why our visions and plans are so important. I focus on the ability to revisit our visions and pull ourselves together as an important aspect of visioning. Listen in.

Closing: Appreciation 

I have had the best year, because I had a wonderful and supportive audience. Thank you for sharing in my joy and for sharing my dream. God bless you... Special Mentions🙊🙊

Moving Forward: Successes and Failures 

Moving Forward may mean continuing or Actually moving on. Its continuing when the timeline for our set goals is not up. It is moving on when there is nothing we can do about our failures.

How to make an Informed Evaluation

Self Evaluation requires a retreat, it requires paying attention circumspectly to our lives, our goals and their timelines. To make an informed Evaluation, we must withdraw and be pensive. We must also write down our goals, milestones, successes, failures and short comings. Listen in

The Purpose and Importance of an Informed Evaluation

We Evaluate to improve effectiveness, to see clearer paths, to be able to make informed decisions, we evaluate to measure progress. Listen in to get the full gist

Evaluation and Moving Forward ( My E & F Series)

As the year ends, I try to do an evaluation on various areas of my life. I will be sharing tips on the importance of keeping records of milestones, successes, failures. Listen in.

The Courageous Man

To Celebrate all men. All fathers, husbands, brothers, uncles, cousins, nephews, lovers, friends, colleagues, mentors, teachers and every man we meet. To Make a Difference for Men and Boys. Celebrating the International Men's Day. Lending support to all men, reminding them to persevere in spite of danger, pain, failure, disappointment. Where are you men of courage?

Consistency: The Hard Time

This episode is an encouragement. I share a few hard times (personal experiences and the experiences of others) in the pursuit of their aspirations. Listen in.

Perfect Conditions

Today I talk about waiting for prefect conditions before we start to pursue our vision. I don't think there's ever a time when we'd not have fears about the stuff we want to start. I tell all my listeners that perfect conditions delay all of us. We must rise and not just want to rise. But to rise we must start and hope to grow.

Sex for grades? A stifling Educational System? What exactly is wrong with our system?

So for this episode I sit with two of my favorite people to discuss stuff that affect the undergraduate Nigerian.

Patrick shares his opinion on the recent SexforGrades trend and we try to discuss solutions. To him, this is something that can cause him to loose his sleep at night. Patrick gives some really good and workable solutions. It is his opinion that in a lecturer-student relationship there is unequal power and so the rebuttable presumption of sexual assault should be in favour of the student, but this is rarely the case as lecturers got each others backs. 

Lota on the other hand talk about how it is painful that the Nigerian Educational System is stifling. He gives vivid examples of how students have been denied Visas even while trying to represent the Nation outside of Nigeria. He talks about the budget for education and how it does not meet standard requirement. To him when a fish starts to get bad, it starts from it's head and the Nigerian Government and Management Boards of Universities contribute in stifling the efforts of students.

Asking Why: Purpose

Today I talk about Why I started podcasting. I talk about how I have to ask myself why I do everything now. Why United Nations? Why podcast now? I figured with some help that when you ask why, you define your purpose and you don't waste anytime.

1st Segment: Strategezing... 2nd Segment: It will heal but we can help

Just Talk 25.mp3
*FOR NIGERIA*

 *It will heal, but we can help*

So this Title was gotten as I recorded this episode. Margaret gets the title credit as it was her line. For this first episode of my FOR NIGERIA series, I have a discussion with two amazing young women.

Arop Margaret ( My Maggie): Co-Founder The Greener Picture. This young Nigerian Lady is taking great strides alongside some other people to inform communities about the need for a clean environment. Again, when I hear her talk, I get amazed at how much people can do even with so little. One of her favourite lines about the environment is that we have a right to clean air. The Greener Picture has planted over 150 trees to ensure the air we breathe is fresher. I told her that when I looked at the United Nations SDGs, I see the stuff she's doing... she has been fulfilling some SDGs and not even meaning to. I am so glad I could catch her to have this chat with her. 

Tchinyereh (as I like to call her) is so pro women. She believes she can change people's Idiosyncrasies about women one pair of ear at a time. She has interests in entertainment and she is a firm believer that young people can do so much by just trying to start. She has said to me, "what hurts you most in Nigeria? Find a way to change that". Tchinyere said something that's still really funny to me during our chat. She said to Maggie and I, "when you are passionate, just talk, it doesn't matter how you sound or the mistakes you make" 

I am so glad this series is up... October will be a great month. Great translates to Nigeria. October is Nigeria
