In this episode, Hajia Zainab Jaji - Adda Zee as we call her laid it bare... Starting with her first experience with loss and grief and most recently the loss of her spouse barely 2 years ago, we had mixed feelings while recording this particular episode. We laughed alot and in between the laughters, a few drops of tears made their way down our cheeks as well. I hope you learn a thing of two from her journey.

She said to me: "The life that you knew is gone, you can never go back to being the you before the loss happened". In this fresh podcast episode, Dorothy shared her story of loss, grief and healing so vulnerably. She didn't hold back. When you listen, you'd realise you shouldn't be listening alone. Be kind. Share with the people that you care about.

If you're in Nigeria, then you'd agree with me that the past weeks have been very tough for us as a nation.

Today, I share 8 self-motivation strategies that can help you through these times. Let me know which one you'd try out. ~Coach Bashirat

In the last one week, I have had several episodes of highs and lows; ups and downs. I was swimming in emotions - pleasant and unpleasant ones. When I looked back, I realise that it wasn't such a bad week after all. There was still so much to be grateful for and so much to look forward to. Today, I share ways by which we can be more compassionate towards ourselves by simply honouring our emotions. Happy listening. ~Coach Bashirat

Last week, I had a physical breakdown. I woke up on Thursday morning with so much pains. My body hurt badly. I knew what that meant. I had been up and about working and hustling in the past weeks to the point that I haven't had a weekend of rest. So, when my body said: you are going nowhere today Coach Bashy, I honoured it. I took two days off and got medical attention plus the much need rest. Isn't this how we all operate? We wait until we breakdown to pay attention to our body. But, we don't have to wait until our bodies can't move, we can learn self-compassion by honouring our bodies. Today, I share ways by which we can start to practice self-compassion paying attention to the little most overlooked things. I hope that you find it beneficial.

You know I care about you...
