Washday Talks

In today’s long awaited episode we discuss what it means to be a Christian in the creative space, and the challenges and blessings that come alongside it. My friend, Dami has started a successful journey of content creation in the past year and has been able to explore the realities of loving Jesus on a public platform and the impact that makes. We also discuss the balance between unhealthy comparison and taking inspiration from other people’s content. There is a very thin line between the two. Navigating life as a creative can be difficult, but a supportive community and strong personal drive will keep you going. Throughout this episode I have inserted clips of my own creative journey over the past few years, all of which is rooted in my love for Christ. Enjoy the episode and follow Dami ❤️@DamiFadun Music by lakey inspired

Forgiveness is a personal journey - a decision that we make to release someone from an unhealthy hold in our heart. Unforgiveness is the breeding ground for bitterness, resentment, and anger. It can poison our relationships with others and our relationship with ourself. Forgiveness doesn’t require reconciliation, neither does it require you to forget the wrong done to you. It just requires that you let go, and it makes you all the better for doing so. You will be all the better for doing so - - - - - -

Watch today’s episode on how to overcome comparison and jealousy when it comes to building up your talents and aspirations. There is no beneficial fruit in unhealthy comparison, it leads to the breakdown of relationships and dreams. If one does not master their emotions in the place of comparison, they are at risk of ruining everything they have worked for. We must learn to be content in our own journey. We must learn to stay in our Lane.

Join us in today's episode on the value of connections with our guest Toni!

When I first met Toni I admired his ability to connect with people on a genuine level. In today's episode we discuss the importance of putting yourself into new environments and being intentional about the relationships we make and keep. Networking is more than just a corporate transaction - great benefits come from interacting with great people.

It would be a shame to deny ourselves the opportunity to grow with others. When we show up, we do ourselves a big favour.

Love is shown in the hard times, because it is tested in the hard times. You can't have perfect love if there isn't some conflict. Or rather, you don't realise you have perfect love until some conflict arises.

Self Help is ruining our social lives, self esteem, and personality. Not all motivational content is really motivational, choose wisely when looking for a quick inspirational video, not everything is as beneficial as it seems.

Ambition is great, until it's not. Don't get caught up in your thirst for success, remember there's more to life than riches and fame.

Fiction, a form a self expression, a window to the soul. As we get older we tend to gravitate towards the world of self-help and critically acclaimed educational books - of course knowledge is wealth, right? But what if I told you that the made up fantasies of our childhood held a type of gold unrivalled by any sophisticated manuscript, would you still view fiction as a pleasure of the past, or would you take it up as your greatest treasure.

We've all heard the common narrative, that we all have the same 24 hours in a day, the same access to higher education, the same opportunities as those around us. But is it really true? Do we all really compete on a level playing field? Does privilege really exist? One could argue that our society is fair and just, but personal experiences offer a different story. Personal experiences suggest that a meritocratic society is merely a myth.

The rise of TikTok has brought fame to many, and the pursuit of it to much more, it's a hotspot for information on anything and everything, a place to connect and to laugh. But is there something sinister about the app, and is it something we need to watch out for? Just how much of a grip does it have on our society? And how exactly do we get free?

Washday Talks, a place to be chatty.
