Love and display of affection are pals that should not be pulled apart. The display of affection can be restricted to places it’s shown, people it’s shown to and maybe time it’s shown. But never should display of affection be restricted to the couple only.

As you dey think

As you dey think

Remember when we used to fight as kids and we say ‘whatever you think for me is what will happen to you’. Remember? Oh well, that’s a reality in some way. Whatever you think towards yourself is the first foundation to everything in your life - the heights you attain, the relationship you keep etc.

So, if you are hungry for an external change, you need to start the revamp internally - from your thoughts.

I have listed out how you can exercise power over your thoughts. The things that influences your thought. How you can naviga te through the heights you desire first from your thoughts.

Listen to this podcast cooked with love and start the work so you can have the year you deserve.

PERCEPTION

PERCEPTION

PERCEPTION they say is everything.

There’s a whole layer to you beyond the fine reflection you see when you stand in front of the mirror.

This layer determines what you do, take, define, accept and say. It’s a part of you that brings every aspect of your life to a point.

It’s also the part you would likely give cognizance too. So, what perception of yourself do you have?

Don’t know? You can build one.

Don’t snooze. Just listen.

JAPA!!!

In a bid to find love and feel loved, many people have settled for being assaulted in relationships. They believe they can change their partner or atleast make them better even when the partner has shown no willingness in that direction.

So, why manage an assault now when you can learn all there is to it and start defining what you want for yourself from a spouse now. Listen to this podcast and awaken the secured you.

The REBIRTH

The REBIRTH

Last week, Nigeria continued travailing in the birth of a new Nigeria. We aim to hold our government accountable. We felt we were getting somewhere and didn’t know what laid ahead of us. The incident that happened on the night of 20.10.2020 is forever engraved in our memory. The massacre of young Nigerians as they sang the national anthem cannot be forgotten. As if that downcast was not enough for the week, we realized COVID-19 palliatives were hoarded, hoodlums were looting and destroying private business. In all of this, the president’s speech gave us no hope and didn’t recognize the youths effort for a better Nigeria thus far. Should these incidents kill our ray of a new Nigeria? No! In this podcast, I spoke about how our past weeks travails are the foundation of a rebirth Nigeria is experiencing. I spoke about how we can prepare as we will all experience this New Nigeria in our life time by God’s grace. Listen and prepare for the Nigeria of your dreams.

SÒRÒ SÓKÈ

SÒRÒ SÓKÈ

October 8, 2020 birthed a movement in Nigeria that started with ending a part of the Police Force but soon metamorphosed into demanding for a better Nigeria. The youths of the country is demanding for better governance, transparency, accountability, an end to corruption and many other factors that have dragged the country to debris. This movement is one that has not been seen or experienced before. It has also proven that the Nigeria we are clamoring for can work as the operations of the protest has shown so. This podcast commends the protest that has been done so far, gives advice on how it can be better and informs the youth of the difference between us and the generation of our Father’s who are not giving us the expected support we need at this time. A new Nigeria is emerging and #EndSARS is just the beginning of what is to come. You should listen.

KARMA; An Heart healing tool

KARMA; An Heart healing tool

That you gave someone your best and they rubbed it in your face doesn’t mean that narration will be your life story. It doesn’t also mean that person would not find another person who would give him/her their best. Rather than focus on the negative side of Karma, why not focus on the positives it will bring your way if you see the right actions. As supposed wishing whoever hurts you a bad Karma why not bask in the good that you have done, knowing it will come to you bigger and better. Rest in the good you have done. Let it heal your heart cause knowing the earth will revolve and Karma will serve you what you give should reassure you. Want to know more, listen.

TALENT na jara

TALENT na jara

Few days to the release of this episode, a popular Nigerian musician sang in his song ‘Grace na koko, Talent na jara’. This means God’s hand is essential in the workings of man.

GROW OR DIE

GROW OR DIE

We have heard words like CREATE OR DIE, INNOVATE OR DIE, DO OR DIE etc. These words have only reflected the need to make moves or be persistent in one or two areas of life. What then happens to the other areas of life? Areas of life that might not directly put money to your pocket.

Beyond what our financial status is, we owe ourselves the honour to grow. Grow in every area of life.

This need is the reason we commenced the new series GROW OR DIE.

In this episode, we put growth and mindset under the microscope. Listen to hear the result.

MUMU: An act of strength in vulnerability

MUMU: An act of strength in vulnerability

As much as there is no manual for how to perfectly navigate through a relationship, there are basics that are ‘what they are’. One of which includes being vulnerable to your partner. In Nigeria, it would be said that you have ‘MUMU’. This word in relationships have come to be synonymous to dependent, slow, passive and unreasonable. However, the plain truth is that these synonyms and the truth the word as been made to represent are fallacies. In this podcast, we debunked this famous myth. Don’t just listen, subscribe.
