On A Serious Note: Recent Episodes
Yimika Fagbenro
On A Serious Note is a Personal Development based Podcast where I share - from my experience in my career - things I learnt over time that helped me improve and grow as a professional. I'd cover a few salient topics (questions) and entry to mid-level professionals are faced at different times in their career.
Join me and Simi as we discuss data, fashion, community and all things enjoyment! There are some interesting stories in this one including an unlikely tale of 'English Pasta'.
Join me and Clive as we chat about his superpowers and how, along with some fun personal stories, they've all shaped his unique approach to life. Even the Amsterdam wind makes a guest appearance!
Oh, here's the podcast we referenced from Diary of a CEO about happiness.
In this episode, I delve deeper into strength-based personal development, building on the previous episode. I explore the discovery of my strengths and provide real-life illustrations of how they come into play. Enjoy!
In this episode, I finally introduce something I've been wanting to for almost three years - Strength-Based Personal Development (I don't sound nearly as serious as this in the recording). I'm thrilled to have found a starting point and excited for the next few weeks/months of sharing. Enjoy and share!
This episode was recorded a few months ago with a very good friend, Kayode. We discussed a lot including influenced turns he took on his professional journey, an ironic situation in the context of where he is now and generally reflected on certain opportunities that could have been. I hope you enjoy this one as much as I did!
