I didn’t see this episode coming…but God did! Listen in on a spontaneous conversation with my friend Joy. I never met a 14-year-old with so many words of wisdom.

ep. 10: bonus episode: fasting observed.

I am aware that the Bible says to practice spiritual things in private, and make it between God and yourself (Matthew 6:6, 17-18) and if this appears to disobey that, please hear my heart. I made this episode to shine a light on a not-so-common spiritual practice in American Christianity. It’s something deeply woven into the spiritual life of Nigerians and other ethnic backgrounds. It’s something I’ve always found extremely challenging. My motive is simply awareness, self-reflection, and hopefully, someone will resonate with my experience and be encouraged. Furthermore, for me, documenting things always makes them more exciting and enjoyable. Lastly, I hope you find the episode interesting to listen to, and that you’re led to listen to more! ~ okayobi

Last episode of the year!!! What better way to end 2023 than a reflection on my first episode of the year which was also one of the best memories of my life.

Join me as I interview my family on how life has been in light of the significant family trip back to Nigeria in the winter of 2022.

Episode 6: My Testimony. In this episode, I ask myself, “what has God saved me from?”

Like the sinful woman at Jesus’ feet who washed His feet with her tears, wiping them with her hair, and anointing them with scented oil—all because she realized what Jesus had really saved her from— I want to regularly remind myself of how far I’ve come in the grace and power of Christ and to love much in light of it. (Luke 7:36-49)

Join me on my road to financial freedom with my guest speaker (and a key figure in my success): my dad!!!

Disclaimer: I just want to acknowledge that my financial story is not the average and I’m so fortunate to have parents that could help me pay for college and allow me to move back home with them. I never, EVER, want to take that for granted.

we're sisters and we talk--a lot. my question is, is it gossiping when we talk about others amongst ourselves??

show notes: I goofed up the definition of disseminate.

Hey! It's your girl, Obi! Join me as I relive the core memory of visiting my alma mater, Corban University, and the painful but beautiful journey of ✨GROWTH✨I experienced.

This is my first candid "let's chat" episode and I had SO much fun recording it. I truly feel like it turned out to be quite a gem but don't just take my word for it.

This is an audio story recounting the time I traveled to Nigeria with my entire immediate family. My life is forever changed. Nigeria! You no dey tire ohh! God bless.
