Join me for my late night reflections on adulthood, entrepreneurship and everything in between.
This podcast serves as an on-air journal for my sleepless nights of overthinking.
So yes I am not religious and I do believe in God. I'm still trying to figure out all this as I had a religious education. On my quest for spirituality, I am looking for an African-centred spirituality.
After watching hours of Nollywood and Ghallywood, I am becoming tired of the stereotypes used by the directors, scripwriters. Could you please try to bring complexity to your characters?
I always asked myself why no matter how much women fought and no matter how furious I got during conversations with men , it just seemed it didn't change anything until...
How would you define yourself? Gender first? Or skin colour? Or nationality? This week I ramble about exactly that who are we?
In this episode, I answer to Eric Olander and Cobus van Staden from The China Africa Project podcast episode named: Why "Nambia" is so important to the China-Africa narrative.

I review a book "The 5 love languages" by Gary Chapman. I just realised we all have different ways we want to be loved and show love.

Since I started my own business I feel unstable emotionally, going from highly motivated and joyful to doubting all my decisions. How about you? How do you deal with all these fears and mood changes?
on my attempt to transition from full time employee to solo entrepreneur, I'm realising I still think like an employee sometimes.
Even though I am African I am tired of being the go to person for everything Africa during a conversation. I might actually not be the expert you think I am.
