Anxiety, depression and other mental health issues are conversation topics that only happen behind closed doors and in dark corners. Away from the open because people are too scared to talk about these issues. In today's episode, we feature stories from people about their relationships with anxiety and depression. We have people tell us how they have coped with living with these things and all the in-between.
Today's episode in the final episode of our first season and also the final episode for our host Seyi Oluboba.

Over 40,000 students apply to Harvard every year and Harvard has an acceptance rating of just over 4.5% of those applicants. Thats a lot of rejection letters and every rejection letter can be said to have the same format.
What is the format for dealing with rejection? Accepting rejection tells stories of ordinary people and how they have dealt with rejection and the growth that comes with it.

Take a stand against Injustice I should do something; but what?
“… For the greatest fear of death is always that it will pass us by. And leave us there alone.” The words of novelist Fredrick Backman from his novel A man called Ove. Being left alone is something some would call a nightmare until you go behind the wall. In this week's episode, we hear 4 different people talk about being alone in ways that not only question the general concept but also shed more light on how different people define the word.

What do you want to be?
That question has always felt very limiting. Like there could be only one answer and that answer could never change.
In this episode, you will hear stories from people who don’t have a single answer and whose answers change multiple times. They talk about their careers, where they came from, where they are and where they are going to.
This is career day like they don’t do it in schools

Episode Summary
“Falling in love is like falling asleep. It’s slow at first and then all at once.”
In this episode, we explore what it means to fall out of love. Movies and Books have over told the stories of ‘happily ever after’ and not enough about ‘they were not meant to be together.’

Some things are difficult to talk about. Failure is one of those things. Considering that it is something that everyone has some experience with, it’s a wonder that we still feel so alone when we think about our failures.
In this episode, we had guests talk about their stories of failure and how they felt towards the idea of failing. We also talked about some fears of our own.

"Hark how the bells. Sweet silver bells. All seem to say. Throw cares away. Christmas is here,"
The portrayal of Christmas in media tends to be simple. There are certain things we have come to expect when the season rolls around: the songs, the carols, the decorations, the movies. It tends to tell a familiar story. In this Christmas bonus episode, we let people, the ones that aren't invested in maintaining any idea of Christmas, talk about how they experience the period. Some of the stories are what you would expect, some are not. Some people like Christmas and some people don't. And every now and then, something completely unrelated to the season comes and warps how you feel about it.
This week inside a bubble, we ask the question: "Do they know it's Christmas in Lagos?"

Productivity is one of those topics that people think about a lot... but from a distance. Starting a podcast, we thought that productivity would be a very crucial nut to crack. The 'Inside a bubble" team is made up of young, fresh out of Uni adults, and we are trying to build something great with this podcast. We realised that knowing how to be productive would be important, so we killed two birds with the same stone. We tried to figure out a productive way to make podcast episodes and also made an episode documenting the process.
In this pilot episode, we experimented with the format this podcast would take. We talked to people from just about as many works of lives as we could squeeze into 25 minutes. There is a content creator, a facebook ad creator, a software engineer, students and a fashion designer to mention a few. What we found is that all of these people do very similar things to get and stay productive.
This is not a self-help episode. We were trying to find a method for ourselves and in the spirit of involving the audience in our creative process, we made this pilot.

We want our listeners to be part of our creative process so we made a short episode where the hosts experiment with their chemistry. This teaser introduces the hosts of the podcast, Bisi and Seyi, and also gives a brief description of what "Inside a Bubble" is all about.
