S2 EP3 - Failing and Starting Over From Scratch

S2 EP3 - Failing and Starting Over From Scratch

Some people are lucky enough to get a handle of their life early - to figure out what they want to do and to begin that journey. Some are even luckier to never have to doubt their identity, to not lose everything and or ever have to start again. Debola Ajayi wasn't that lucky. At 22, he had his life figured out but five years later, he lost everything.
His apartment caught fire, he lost his ministry, friends and even family. He got to the point where he had to rebuild from rock bottom and rebuild entirely differently this time. On this episode of the Vulnerability Podcast, Debola shared with Peace his starting over story. What happened that he lost everything? How did he cope? How did he begin to get himself back? What lessons has he learned so far? How did he manage a major life crisis at 27?

S2-EP2 Dealing With Grief

S2-EP2 Dealing With Grief

On this episode, Peace Itimi sits with Phidelia Imiegha as she shares the story of losing her mum. Phidelia talks about her she has dealt with / handled her grieving process in the last 5 years, how it affected her mental health and her relationship with God; and the things you should never say to someone who just lost someone close to them. 

This is a very sincere and open conversation, and we both hope this reminds someone out there that they aren't alone and that things can get brighter.

The Vulnerability Podcast Season Two Intro

Everyone has a story ...or two: Season 2 of the vulnerability podcast explores the dark, deep and vulnerable stories of ‘upwardly mobile’ young Nigerians. The stories you typically won’t see featured on social media posts or news features or interviews; the stories that remind us of our humanness; the stories that make us who we are - that show our pain and our strength; our struggles and then our victories; the battles we lost, the lessons learned and the battle we won.

Season 2 returns on Friday, August 21st 2020. We have 7 episodes of goodness for you. I hope you are as excited about this, as I am.
