In this heartfelt episode of Our Greener Pastures, we sit down with Dapo, who shares his journey of moving to Canada to pursue a master’s degree in engineering and landing a high-paying job soon after. However, things took a turn when he lost his job due to internal company changes he hadn’t anticipated. During the pandemic, Dapo found himself unemployed for over a year and five months, a challenging period that brought feelings of shame, depression, and uncertainty as his plans unraveled. Dapo opens up about the valuable lessons he learned during this time—lessons about resilience, self-awareness, and finding strength in unexpected setbacks. He also reflects on the emotional toll of feeling like you're falling behind and how he eventually overcame the mental and emotional challenges that followed. This episode is a candid exploration of career setbacks, personal growth, and the power of perseverance in the face of adversity.
