Why, Who & What?
Yes, I love deep conversations. These days, I have refined what I consider a deep conversation: the kind that is interesting enough to engage in and has the capacity to produce change within. Such conversations include those that build me up to be a better version of who I am today, tommorrow. In...

From Nonsense to Great, Rate Your Attitude
You would think that the title is click baiting you, till you listen and then you realise it doesn't do this episode enough justice. But it's just about how much journeying I could go in finding a title for the episode. Two interesting stories, different characters, different outcomes, and very...

The Most Dangerous Name You'll Ever Answer To
There is a difference between acknowledging that you do stupid things and saying to yourself, 'I am stupid'. The first refers to a behaviour. The other refers to an identity. The difference in lived experience determines the extent to which a person will move, regardless of the opportunities or...

What Shaped Your Version of God?
What if the God we know is a version of God that was created through the filters of our past, pain or parents?

You Are Teaching Your Child What You Do Not Want Them Copying
As adults, we have the responsibility to pass on the lessons for living a good life to our children and others through intentionally modelling good habits, behaviours, and properly expressing our emotions. Emotions are neither good nor bad; they are merely signals, indicators of something lurking...

You are mean, you just don't know how
This is not ragebait; it is about one of the many conversations we will do well to start having.

Why Fear & Negativity Bonds Us More Than Love
The more I pay attention to people, the more I observe myself, the more conversations I have, the more I find myself asking a question that I genuinely do not have a complete answer to. Why does it seem easier for human beings to bond around negative emotions than positive ones? Why is gossip so...

This is NOT Your Final Version - HDD
After I was done recording, I realised one huge thing I had left out: what we say in our heads matters, maybe even more than what we say with our mouths. I hope that we can begin to tune the monologue, some do dialogues, in our heads to align with the Final version we would love to see of ourselves.

When 'Thank You' Isn't Enough
One of the journeys I have been on this year actually started sometime around the middle of last year, and that journey is gratitude. And that discovery, that even though I see myself as a thankful person doesn't mean that I am a grateful person as much as I thought I was, has been uncomfortable....

Sitting with Understanding (Part 2)
Understanding and agreement are not the same thing. I think many people struggle with communication here because they think that when they come to understand the other party, it automatically means that they agree. It doesn't. Once we can separate understanding from agreement, conversations…

Understanding As The Lifeblood of Relationships
I know that for many of us, communication is the all-in-all of healthy relationships. However, when it comes to what we call 'communication', much of it hasn't transformed relationships as it should. Yet, there are relationships with not all that much communication but a whole lot of…

Anyone There To Lean on?
Whose ears do you have when you can't really articulate the thoughts of your aching heart? Who knows that you are there to lean on when standing strong becomes hard? Background music - Orch Amapiano (Peace Of Mind) (feat. TheRealPhoenix) (Instrumental)

Unintentional hurts still hurt
Everyone comes from somewhere. Everyone carries a past. Everyone has things that were done to them, things said to them, things they learned and things they’re still unlearning. We should and can be more gracious with our speakings.
-
Love is just not enough
In this episode of the podcast I talk about the truth we all feel but rarely name: that love, on its own, doesn't always reach the places it's meant to. I touch on emotional and psychological needs—those quiet, unseen, deeply human parts of us—are so often misunderstood, dismissed, or simply…

Don't Be Overwhelmed
Happy New Year!!!! In this first episode of the year, I dive straight into talking about three areas of life to check to avoid being overwhelmed. These areas are Goals Community/Relationships Personal Development. I am sure you would find some value in listening. Cheers to an amazing 2025 🎊🥳

Just Vibes
Heeey, No motivational speaking... Just vibes because why not. Once a while just shock people, not like I think this will shock you if you know me at all. Enough said. Enjoy the listening, and cheers to the new year. Surest regards, Ola

The Pain of Offence - From Hurt to Healing
Offence usually starts small. Just a thought. A word. An action. And we take it personally. We let it in. And soon, that tiny seed takes root, slowly spreading into resentment, anger, bitterness, and if we let it... into hate. When we learn not to take things personally, when we learn that the...

Feedback - fuel for your growth
In this episode I share thoughts on what feedback is and how you can take it and use to fuel your growth. When you begin to see feedback as a gift, you'll learn to find a use for the opinion that is given to you as feedback.
-
Mindset position - for good or for shege?
We may never know how the mindset supports our desires or fights against, but we can examine how those who have gone ahead have positioned their minds to win. I see how the mindset can be a catapult to a higher level, or an obstacle.
-
Fear Not!
'Fear not' doesn't mean that fear would leave you be. Rather, it means to find a way to do it regardless. "Just do it" by Nike is a catchy phrase until it comes to doing. Yet, anyone can do. Surprisingly, the world is full of smart people being ruled over by those with less intelligence but...

The Power of A Positive Community
We are probably only as strong as the communities we belong too. And because we tend to go to where we are seen and/or heard, the communities we belong to are usually the places where we find 'acceptance'. Unfortunately, this is not always what happens. Because we want to be accepted, many will…

The Ado About Our Being
In this episode I take a dive into the introverted/extraverted conversation. Nature and Nurture shapes who we become. One, to a large degree, we have very little influence over. The other, we can do a reborn at it if we are unsatisfied with the outcome of its designs that we see in us. This is…

Is Yours Truly "A Happy Father's Day"?
There really can't be fathers without men, hence the quality of fatherhood is dependent on the quality of manhood. If there ever is an issue that we often play hide and seek with, I think this has to be it - "Boy-child, Manhood and Fatherhood". Maybe, there actually is a lot of talk around it,...
-
Who is in your network and in whose network are you?
What exactly is the value of the people who play/work in your space? What’s your value in their space? Ouch! At some point, all of us humans will do the soul searching and decide if the people we are doing life with it are it or how much waste it was of those times we could have walked away to…

When my mind be tripping me
No one, almost, will tell you that they have to deal with envy or jealousy because that is usually a good place for the jury to congregate and delclare them guilty of wrong doing. However, sharing liquor and asun or vibing at the hairdressers or just 'catching cruise' are some of the most natural...

Conversation with a startup founder - Mayokun of Gameporte
"We making money this year" by Jaywon is a song that comes to mind. While this episode is not necesarily about money, I can imagine that a lot of the listeners are finding their path in life and money and the expressions we make it from are important to our lives and living. In this episode, I…

Emotional Healing for you: take it!
The struggle can be very real. It's me also having to deal with the emotional baggages of the year and all that. Peace can be as elusive as emotional fitness. The way you look forward to being whole physically is the same way, and much more, to chase after emotional wholeness. A sound mind is a...

Don’t tell me nonsense.
Saying “I understand” or “I feel you” when your actions don’t show any empathy to the other party, is not only discomforting it’s also quite insensitive to the pain they are going through.

Aim To Be Likable Not Liked!
