Into the light

On this weeks episode, I sat down with Dayo Okewale from the UK Parliament to discuss the importance and need of role models throughout this journey called life. Role models influence what we do and can help motivate us to strive to uncover our true potential.

Having been an observer my whole life, it became apparent to me that unlearning is essential for human growth. I decided to sit down with Alya Mooro and discuss this subject. I’ve really admired Alya’s journey of self-discovery and thought she would be the perfect person for this subject. Alya’s book, "The Greater Freedom: Life as a Middle Eastern Woman" is available now via Amazon.

Purpose has always been something that I have self-actualized and live by. Everything that I have done in my life thus far has been done to live and fulfil my purpose in life. I have always been passionate about this subject, I'm not sure why but I couldn't see my life being any other way. I sat down with Cassandra Lokko to discuss this subject. I really admire Cassie's journey #FromPainToPurpose she is someone that I have observed to be intentionally living in purpose and thriving in it whilst reaching unimaginable heights doing so. We dig deep and speak about painful subjects but also place emphasis on the fact that on the other side of pain, there really is purpose.

For as long as I can remember, I have always wondered why humans compare themselves to one another. From an early age, I became aware that life wasn’t necessarily something that was fair. I understood that everyone was born into different situations with different privileges.    For example, some people are born with one parent whilst others are born with two and some born with none. I understood that the distribution of wealth was different depending on what type of family you were born into. I also became aware that depending on where you were born some people had more choices whilst others didn’t. The list goes on.    It really got me thinking and I’ve always been passionate about this subject, I’m so grateful God has given me a platform to share this message.

Fear Less For God has not given us a spirit of fear, but of power and of love and of a sound mind - 2 Timothy 1:7 Everybody lives with some element of fear in them, whether it’s fear of speaking up, fear of moving on, fear of getting rejected, fear of letting go or fear of getting hurt. With that being said, a lot of us walk around armoured with invisible no go signs on our foreheads. I wanted to discuss this subject because fear was once holding me back from a lot of things such as being my true authentic self which can be difficult in today’s world. I sit down with entrepreneur Nicholas Dex to discuss this.

One of my earlier podcasts was on the subject of fear and the impact fear can have on us.  An article that was written in 2013 by Dan Schawbel highlights that fear is the most common trap that stops people from reaching their full potential (Dan Schawbel, 2013, www.forbes.com/sites/danschawbel/2013/05/09/jon-acuff-why-most-people-dont-reach-their-full-potential-and-how-you-can).  In this episode, I am joined by Charnice Blaize, owner of Blaized to discuss why it can be human nature to dim our lights and have limiting beliefs about ourselves.
