In this episode, I talk to Pelumi Oshilagun aka Posh about what life is living with your parents and not doing a conventional 9-5 job.
You will enjoy this one, trust me.
I recently went on a Girls' Trip to the Benin Republic and while we had a swell time sightseeing, relaxing by the beach, and trying new dishes in a foreign country, we spoke about the fate of young people in Nigeria, the need to vote, and to japa or not to japa. Enjoy!
Your 20s are considered the building phase of your life, but what happens when you get overwhelmed?
Those moments when you hit a rut and can't see a way forward. No matter what has happened, what will happen, and what happens, Dear young person, you're doing well.
Adulting is such an arduous process made even harder when you're broke. The worst part is that you can't get out of it. You practically have to adult till you die. How do you navigate this terrain? How do you stay sane? What works?
Life itself is full of situations that will cause you to blame yourself at some point. It could be something you did wrong or something that wasn't even your fault to start with. Regardless of what the case may be, be sure to extend grace to yourself. Dear young person, learn to forgive yourself.
Whoosh! This was a year we won't forget in a hurry. Here's an audio recap of what happened to/for me this year. Hope you enjoy listening.
See you next year!
You have to critically analyze your relationships (platonic and otherwise) so you know how much of yourself you're giving and how much of your energy is being matched.
As you try to give your best in relationships, be sure that it's being reciprocated. A well that is constantly drained and not refilled WILL run dry. You don't want to be a dry well, do you?
The people you walk with today will go a long way in determining your trajectory for the future. Are you creating relevant networks? Or are you just "going with the flow"?
A new mantra, a word to keep you going in this trying time. Whatever it is to you, one thing holds true: For this life ehn, God no go shame us!
