On My Way To Confidence

We all face uphill battles in life and these experiences often test our confidence. In this episode, I chat with my friend Dell about many obstacles we all face. Character is built through obstacles and with a helping hand, we will surely come out stronger. 

Have you ever doubted yourself and really felt like you just can't do this anymore? I bet many of us have been there before. However, it's not a healthy mindset to retain. First we must believe in ourselves, and say "Yes I Can" before convincing others to believe in us.

My word for 2021 is resilience. This is probably one of the most important skills that we all need and it has become even more prevalent in the era of COVID. In this episode, I interview one of my mentors who is just a great person all around and a shining star. We discuss the role of purpose and courage in becoming resilient individuals.

When all we can do is simply stay afloat, how do we stop the perpetual cycle of misfortune? To what extent do we have control over our circumstance? How can we stay positive during trying times? In this episode, I reflect on these questions with my friend and lovely sister Ukeme.

Overdrive refers to a state of being in excess or being overworked. In such a state, you are able to go beyond your maximum capabilities and maintain high speed momentum. But what happens when living in overdrive leads to an imbalanced life, where our goals and objectives are not aligned with who we really are; where our ambitions are fueled by social media influences and not our true purpose? What then must we do to redirect ourselves towards a more fulfilling path?

Have you ever been turned down or felt unaccepted or unwanted? How have such experiences shaped the way you now live your life? "Shoot your shot" is all about how we deal with rejection in life and taking chances even when the future seems bleak. In this episode, I interview a friend, Nick and he shares with us how he got on his chosen career path. It wasn't as straightforward as he expected but it turns out that setbacks can be instrumental in redirecting us towards the right path.

Our willingness to be transparent and honest about our life can be a great indicator of real confidence. When we seek to present ourselves in a genuine manner, we relinquish fear - fear of judgement from ourselves and others. When we are genuine, we are also able to attract the help and support we actually need. In this episode, I discuss this topic further with another fellow millennial and friend, Courtney. Being authentic, real and honest is definitely a key component of becoming more confident.

In this episode, Oyin and I delve into the many facets of life that are presented one way but turn out to be quite different from what we expected. How do we adjust to reality? Why does it take so long sometimes to accept the truth?

Sometimes we find ourselves waiting for a green light. This episode with Queen Ihowa sheds light on the realities of building the life you want by being courageous and accepting that sometimes, we will be uncomfortable.
