The Skills Squad Podcast
by ADEBOYE Hannah
Some conversations stay with you long after they end. The apology that didn't feel sincere. The relationship you couldn't make sense of. The friend who slowly pulled away. The habit you promised yourself you'd break but somehow didn't.Most people move on without ever understanding why. On The Skills Squad Podcast, we slow those moments down. We unpack the emotions, behaviors, and relationship patterns hiding in plain sight, so you leave with more than answers. You leave seeing yourself and the people around you differently. I'm Adeboye Hannah, and I believe emotional intelligence isn't about having the right words. It's about noticing what everyone else overlooks. Some episodes will comfort you. Others will expose you. Every one of them will leave you thinking. The episode ends on your favorite streaming platform.

Episode 23- Being The bigger person
Being the bigger person sounds admirable until you're always the one apologizing, staying quiet, or making excuses for someone else's behavior. At some point, you have to ask yourself: Am I choosing peace, or am I just afraid of disappointing people? Become a supporter of this podcast:...

Episode 22 - Asking for help
Some people would rather struggle in silence than ask for help. Not because they don't need it, but because they've convinced themselves that needing help is the same as being weak, incapable, or a burden.

Episode 21 - Self Control
Your biggest regrets probably didn't happen because you didn't know better. They happened because, for a moment, your emotions made the decision before you did. That's why self-control matters. Not because it makes you perfect, but because it gives you a chance to choose the kind of person you…
