Jiffs with Mims

What to do with the rest of the year when you don't know what to do. Can the rest of 2023 still be the best of this year for us?

I'm realizing that more episodes = a happier Jiffs with Mims Fambam. This episode is standing gallantly between a rant and encouragement and it's up to you to decide.

This is for that one who's struggling to spend time with God or can't find the words to say. I hope the words here help you sit with Abba and be reminded that God is a good Father.

I don't exactly have the words to describe this episode but I know how I want you to feel as you listen and after.

Just as the name implies, that is what I really want this episode to be. Something you can listen to any where and everywhere. A random conversation that may make you smile and feel lighter.

After a month's hiatus, I'm back and present. I'd definitely love to hear how the previous month was for you and I hope with this episode and by listening to me speak you receive strength and clarity.

It's the end of a quarter and there can be a lot of pressure to overcompensate or just be too hard on yourself. How do you deal with the end of a season and transition into a new one?

It is still the month of the little things and this is the second episode of this series. This episode features words of encouragement in this season and then some practices I strongly believe we should back.

The beauty and power in the seemingly basic and simple things. I hope we don't lose the significance of these little acts that are actually quite big.

Although restoring friendships is one conversation to have, another would be the vulnerability that comes with sustaining friendships. This is a journey I'm constantly on and I'm sharing a few things I've learnt on the road.

On behalf of Adult friendships I'm sharing this specific episode. Hard questions we need to ask, but even harder to answer and navigate through. As you grow older you tend to lose relationships, how do you restore a friendship that has faded away.

I wanted to title this one "Searching for support in the wrong places". When you start something, your friends may not understand, believe in you, support or show up for you. In this episode, I speak about how to deal with with these situations and the emotions they bring.

I believe this is a reminder we need like every 7 business days as someone said. We may fall, we may get frustrated, we may hate our first steps. One thing we'll never find out if we don't start is what could have been. What if that became the greatest innovation, or you became the next big thing in that industry. Well we won't know if you don't start.

Cheers to me showing up again this week plus did you see my cool coverrr. Well I'm thankful and I'm still your partner in consistency for the year. Lastly, can we agree to not leave a trail of half-finished projects this year. I ended up sharing 2 tips from the consistency series and I'm saving the 3rd one for the next episode. Love you my Jiffters.

Happy new year my Jiffters (indulge me please). I'm back like I never left and my goal for the month of January is a mind renewal on how people approach consistency and help people actually achieve some goals. I've titled it A Consistency Series.

Like every other year, the last month comes with it's barrage of insecurities and multiple questions. Did I achieve anything? Does my life have any meaning? The year is ending and nothing to write home about. Well this episode is for you

Sometimes take in that lesson first, that experience, that memory as well. Why not put your hands to work and start executing, don't be too quick to talk. Understand the things that are ready to be shared and those that need to be cooked first.

I shared my wholesome weekend experience and I titled this episode bitter pill because although it may taste bitter a bunch of us need to have peace concerning it. Not everyone is as mindful of you as you are of them and that's actually fine. Be genuine with your support and love for others, don't just do it for selfish gains. Humans are by nature selfish but we can teach ourselves to walk in love.

It's not our moments or struggles that define us, it is how we handle them. If there is any thing we have in common as humans, it's that we all go through our fair share of struggles or seasons where we are in our feels. How do you go through such seasons? What's your coping mechanism? In this episode I shared a few of my thoughts and maybe what I could call suggestions. Enjoy!

This is the first of my October series featuring a few unreleased EPs by your one and only (LOL!). It has been another year around the sun and so more lessons on friendships. In this episode I shared on friendship mistakes, how to be intentional with your relationships, adulthood and friendships and some hot takes (as always). Let me know what you think and if you have experienced any of these things.

A prayer from a child to his/her Father. A cry from our hearts to our Father. I hope these words stir up worship in your hearts and lead you back to the feet of our Lord.

This is a special short episode, it might be a bitter pill to swallow but let's be realistic for a few minutes. I hope this episode conveys my heart and helps you treat yourself better. This episode may or may not be deleted.

I strongly felt the need to share my learnings on this as my next journal entry. Are you currently struggling with doing things for God or ministry? Do you find yourself getting overwhelmed with the need to start something for God, but don't know what? Do you find yourself starting to compare yourself with other people doing things for God? If you find yourself struggling with feelings along these lines then this episode is for you.  Love, Mimi Okigbo.

I really battled with trust issues the past year, trusting is not really the easiest of things to do. My Social battery also got bigger yippie. In this episode I shared how year 22 went for me and I pray my experiences and learnings bless you too. I almost teared up listening to this one.

I currently get myself gifts for almost anything. Although I'm still waiting for my Christmas and easter gifts, please help me beg the person to ship them to me. I believe a good way to start with this love language is by learning generosity, you don't have to break the bank for it to be considered generosity. Do within your means.

Learning to be confident about your talents, goals and mission. Pretty much learning to toot your horn. Confidence speaks volumes, when you start being bold about what you do you start to believe in yourself even more. As you listen to this, I hope you start to believe in the work of your hands and stay diligent. The goal is excellence

Undiluted fun, laughter and just vibes. We hope you get to laugh a lot while also drawing a few gems from this episode. I hear Amaka is a favorite on the streets, well why don't you find out why. IG: @_iamamaka 

Sometimes I just like to avoid having conversation with elders, because small gist you'll start thinking about your life and doubting yourself. How do we bridge the gap between them wanting to give us advice and them actually understanding how the work culture in our generation is quite different from theirs. How do we help the elders understand our aspirations or do we just let them be?

I want my listeners to know that it is the month of July(Why am I laughing?). I want them to know my sense of humor is unmatched(they can try checking if they doubt). I want them to know that I love them and that I am grateful Jiffs with Mims has been a form of encouragement to them in the first half of the year.

I am learning some people don't know how to talk or put themselves in the shoes of others *scratches head*. I acknowledge that it's not possible to like everything but in giving an opinion check your heart and motives. Communication is the bedrock of our interaction as humans and it's something we can learn as well as get better at everyday.

My first guest #tears and I decided to have a family member on this one to just ease my way into it. This episode is pretty much for you to laugh as we laugh, for vibes and there are definitely plenty gems scattered all around this conversation.

This is like a Finale to my thoughts on this topic. I also begged my fellow Christians to do better and not disgrace our Father outside *kneels down*. As always feel free to reach out to me and share your thoughts on IG: @mimiokigbo

A lot of times, I create an episode or carousel and then everywhere I go people start talking about the same thing. It just shows it's something God is teaching in that season. This episode is one of such, God is teaching this in this season.

A part two,leading you through the process of starting, dealing with overwhelming emotions, burnouts and learning how to be patient with the assignment and growth.

How to start with what you have. The kind of mindset to have when building systems and how to deal with a vision that seems too overwhelming or large.

I am not sure why I said genuinely too many times but maybe it just means my feelings and expressions are indeed genuine. What to do when you don't feel good enough or you're going through imposter syndrome.

What a Realisation lol. I decided to share this predicament with my Jiffs with Mims fam. If you can relate send me a message, I won't snitch.

Lol stay with me, I'm heading somewhere with that title I promise. To truly build meaningful relationships or connections a key factor is learning openness.

I realized I just may be having a block this year and it has caused a drag, I also shared a bit of info on love like I promised in the last episode. Enjoyyy!

Have you ever asked yourself this question, “What do I want out of life?”. Would you dare to take off those limitations and think outside the box

Communication is an important aspect of human relationship. In this episode a few things were highlighted about respecting people's time and access to their lives.

As I lay in bed one night, these words just poured out of my heart. It's a cry from my heart and it's a prayer of consecration and alignment.

Thankful for 2021. Grateful for every single person that has listened to “Jiffs with Mims” and hopefully been encouraged and strengthened. I pray to do even more this year, so stay Jiffyyyy

This last episode is me pouring out my heart, I really want you to hear this and so I'm sharing. I hope this is a reminder or confirmation for someone ❤️. This also features husky voice Mimi

In this episode, asides showing off my new voice I wanted to bring us into a deeper sense of appreciation and love for the best gifts around us in terms of men as we round up the year.

Just as the name implies, that's what this episode is all about. How I developed my baby girl mentality and financial self care. If I don't spoil myself with even the littlest of things who will

I may have said “to be honest” and “yeah” one too many times sigh. Like the episode title that was what came to my head to really describe this episode. Listen and do share your thoughts!

Recalling a memory from my childhood. If my siblings see this they'll probably call and laugh about this while calling me silly. This memory wasn't funny then but it is now.

We're entering a new month and a lot of us have set goals or targets, but what do you do when you just don't feel like it? I'll be discussing the chairman

This verse gives me a lot of strength and I'm sharing it to give you a lot of strength too. You have an able and responsible shepherd that you can trust. The Lord is your able shepherd!

There's a lot more that can be said on this topic, but this is part one. Talking about when your environment doesn't match words you've received or your goals.
