24: A Honest Truth on Why I Disappear and The Silence
Hi Listeer!
It has been a long, hot, silent minute; I wish I didn't have a reason for ghosting you all, but I do—quite a lot of reasons.
I am grateful for the message I received on Twitter asking where I had been.
I want to make this as short as possible. I took a break to focus on my academics, thinking that if I did, I might be able to finish up on time. Unfortunately, I have bad news: I am still here. Oh, how can someone have been pursuing a postgraduate degree since 2019? See me see trouble! If it's not ASUU, it's COVID-19; if not COVID-19, it's the department; if not the department, it's the PG school. Throughout this journey, I keep blaming myself for deciding to study at a Nigerian university.
Secondly, I got a well-paying 9 to 5 job in 2022, remotely though, and left it in 2023 with no plan. Honestly, I wasn't growing, seeing as the company was doubting whether they needed to keep my position or not. I could see the signs that my position would be cut off, so I left while my dignity was still intact.
Thirdly, the inflation in Nigeria has finally gotten to me. I am sick, exhausted, poor, tired, and frustrated; I, who never thought of leaving the country, have started considering it. I am so scared because I don't even have anything going on at the moment.
Moving on, I've decided, for the billionth time, to focus more on Novellisteer this year, which led me to make some decisions:
Moving the hosting to a hosting company that accepts payment in Naira.
Renewing the domain name because I want to build this.
I am currently searching for a manufacturer in Abuja that can supply me with the high-quality material I need for the physical product we are starting.
I am going to delegate someone to be in charge of repurposing our content. Still searching.
I am building Novellisteer with this audience in mind: multipotentialite women, first daughters, multi-passionate women, and ambitious women.
I am going to focus on Novellisteer's primary channels, which are: Blog, Podcast, & YouTube.
Novellisteer is going to launch a free WhatsApp community and paid membership; I'm still working on a strategy for the membership, but you can join the free WhatsApp group if you fall among the Novellisteer audience here

12: Can I Afford The Life After It
Welcome to another episode of the Novellisteer Podcast, recently watch a drama that made me question certain in my life that seems novel to people around, it is not quite easy when you don't have a clear path of thinking the way you do and having all this thought of whether you should leave your life to fate and start being irrational.
There are a lot of lifestyles that exist in this world, yes it might look interesting and appealing in that you want to achieve that lifestyle or that thing that we sometimes forget to ask ourselves "if I can afford the life after that"
Relax, do not stress and take some notes.
