Welcome to Season 2! This season we will be interviewing a number of guests who have a story to share. Real life inspirational stories that will inspire, motivate and give hope to the listener! Today’s topic is one that is so relevant to the season that we are in due to the coronavirus pandemic and effect on the world's economy - THE TRAUMA OF BEING UNEMPLOYED!  Unemployment is a situation that is best viewed from afar and one that no one ever expects to be their reality. But, when it does, especially for an extended period, it seems like a worsening pain without recovery. The pain ranges from sadness, anger, corporate discrimination, criticism, depression, discouragement, disappointment, fear, frustration, shame, social elimination, rejection, silence and in the worst case scenario even suicide! In today's podcast, Bimbola & Jo interviewed a guest, Ayo Onigbogi who was unemployed for 3 years after enjoying a glowing and growing engineering career. This was a very trying time of his adult life and he had a lot to share with us both to inspire and motivate anyone in the same boat. There was good even in that moment of his life.

Communicating via WhatsApp has become so popular in recent times both for calling, texting and video conferencing. Despite its widespread use, it still has its limitation and the owning company is constantly upgrading its functions. One of the limitations  is the calling feature which does not give an indication to the caller if the recipient's phone is on or off. Traditional way of calling via a mobile or land phone means if the phone you are calling is switched off, you will be alerted. Whereas with WhatsApp if the phone you are calling is switched off, it continues to ring as though the phone is on. This right there is a cause to a lot of arguments in relationships. In today's podcast, Bimbola & Jo talked about this in more detail. You really don't want to miss this episode.

The breakout of the corona virus has sent the whole world into a lockdown as the safety measure to curtail its spread. However the lockdown in itself is predicted to cause an expected rise in the number of separation and divorce. Relationships that were suffering before the lockdown are expected to get worse. Spending time with a spouse should be a positive thing but under the strict lockdown conditions, might bring existing issues to light forcing the couple to either work to fix their issues or come to the painful realisation that it's probably best to go separate ways. In today's podcast, Bimbola and Jo were joined by recurring guest Elizabeth Ayelabola to discuss the impact the lockdown has had on their marriages.  Join us in this discussion via instagram, twitter, facebook or email.

The effect of the lockdown cannot be ignored when it comes to the young ones. Children also have their own worries and fears about Coronavirus. Their daily routine has changed, life is very different. Their lives have been turned upside down by the pandemic and for most children the world they knew have literally just disappeared. No more school, friends to play with, exams to prepare for, extracurricular activities cancelled and inability to see loved ones who are not resident in the same house. We cannot assume they will all cope very well. It's important we pay attention to their feelings, acknowledge these feelings and help them through this period.   In today's podcast, Bimbola and Jo were joined by Phinnah Chichi who is a Parenting Teens Educator, Consultant, Speaker, School governor and Mentor and the conversation was geared towards how we can help our children cope better during the lockdown and ensure they come out of with a sound mental health.

The law around organ donation is changing in the United Kingdom. From Spring 2020, all adults in England will be considered an organ donor when they die unless they had recorded a decision to opt out.

When a man and a woman are in a relationship, moving in together seems like the next logical step. Culturally though it's the woman that moves into the man's house but in the western world a man moving in has become the trend and is almost the norm.
