  • One Day One Day but Not Today with Olasubomi Aka-Bashorun

    What happens when “one day” quietly becomes a lifetime of waiting?

    In this episode of the Love Drops Podcast, we sit down with author Olasubomi Aka-Bashorun to explore his book, One Day One Day but Not Today—and, more importantly, the personal journey that inspired it.

    Olasubomi opens up about the experiences, lessons, choices, and turning points that shaped his perspective on time, purpose, and the tendency to postpone the things that matter most. Through his story, we’re reminded that the life we keep saying we’ll live “one day” is being shaped by what we choose to do—or delay—today.

    This is an honest and inspiring conversation about personal growth, courage, purpose, and the moments that challenge us to stop waiting for the perfect time and start taking meaningful steps forward.

    If you’ve ever said, “I’ll do it one day,” this conversation may be the reminder you need: one day can be today.

    Tune in for Olasubomi’s story, the inspiration behind One Day One Day but Not Today, and a powerful conversation about choosing action over postponement.

    Listen, reflect, and ask yourself: What have I been putting off that deserves to begin today? Connect with Ola here: https://www.draftsbyola.com

  • Ease on Down the Road with Monique Jacques

    What does it mean to ease on down the road when life feels uncertain?

    In this uplifting episode of Love Drops Podcast, Monique Jacques joins us for a heartfelt conversation inspired by her live performance in The Wiz. More than a beloved musical, The Wiz reminds us that the journey to our purpose isn't about having all the answers—it's about taking the next faithful step.

    Monique shares how stepping onto the stage challenged her to trust herself, embrace vulnerability, and rediscover the joy of performing. Together, we explore how the themes of The Wiz mirror our own lives: overcoming fear, finding our voice, building community, and believing that what we're searching for may already be within us.

    Whether you're pursuing a dream, navigating change, or simply looking for encouragement to keep moving forward, this episode is a reminder that every step matters—and sometimes the greatest growth happens along the road.

    In This Episode You'll Hear:

    • Monique Jacques' journey to performing live in The Wiz
    • The life lessons behind "Ease on Down the Road"
    • Why courage grows through action, not certainty
    • Rediscovering purpose through creativity and performance
    • Overcoming fear, self-doubt, and perfectionism
    • The importance of community, encouragement, and authentic connection
    • Trusting God's timing while embracing new opportunities


    Memorable Quote: "You don't have to know every step ahead. Just keep easing on down the road, trusting that each step is preparing you for what's next."
