The Magnify Conversations

Achieving success in the world of investing requires a combination of strategic decision-making, risk-taking, discernment, and embracing your unique strengths. In this episode we get into how Yvonne turned her interest in economics into her passion for investing. We also learn about her wisdom that encourages us to pursue professional excellence while making well-informed decisions and how we can represent Jesus in the workplace - no matter what job we’re in.

How can we feel confident in taking up space and leading our industries while not compromising our ethics? Watch as our hosts Rachel Calland and Sinead Minkah are joined by Yvonne Bajela in the Magnify Studio for Ep 54 ‘Cracking the Code: How I Got Into Investing’.

There’s a wealth of advice online, and offline about how we should date intentionally with the goal of marriage, but sometimes it can feel outdated, or like we’ve turned dating into a tick box exercise. We’re taking a look at the role of mutual respect, attraction, common interests and spiritual alignment, while also discussing why maintaining a God centered marriage is a constant commitment. It’s time we open our eyes and confront the differences between someone with potential, and someone who has potential to have a successful relationship with you.

How do we discern someone who’s husband material, and not just someone who acts the part? Listen as our hosts Rachel Calland and Sinead Minkah are joined by Magnify’s founder Ruth Yimika Afolabi in the Magnify Studio for Ep 53 ‘How did I know he was the one?’

Many of us are inquisitive women who are seeking to find peace and purpose in the world around us. For some of us this has led us down a path of exploring different faiths, philosophies and practises. We can sometimes feel ourselves pulling away from what we view as more traditional religion because we feel it’s not personal enough, but that’s when we need to dig deeper. Self-discovery, self-actualisation and commercialised New Age trends won’t fulfill us, but we know something that can.

How do we shift from entertaining aspects of general spirituality and cultural Christianity to authentically choosing to follow Jesus? Listen as our hosts Rachel Calland and Sinead Minkah are joined by Joey Darlinn in the Magnify Studio for Ep 52 ‘New Age to Christianity: How I Found Jesus in Adulthood'.

A lot of emphasis is placed on the topics of money and marriage, but when we combine the two we are able to magnify many existing issues, and expose how deep our core values really go. Financial expectations and talking about how we should spend and save isn’t always comfortable, but it is necessary to have a thriving relationship that honours God and our spouse. So much anxiety and fear comes from money dysmorphia, a lack of financial literacy or personal experiences with poverty or debt. We’re learning how to deepen our faith and manage our finances better by tapping into Biblical money management tips.

How do we have open and honest conversations about finances that lead to positive outcomes, when it can be awkward to bring up in a relationship? Listen as our hosts Rachel Calland and Sinead Minkah are joined by Tolu Frimpong in the Magnify Studio for Ep 51 ‘From "I Do" to "We Do": Why Money Talks Are Essential in a Successful Marriage'.

There’s so many angles to why some women are labeled as strong. It can be used as a compliment that aims to empower us, and other times it’s a dig to reduce our femininity. We can often wonder how our perception from others and ourselves impacts our professional and romantic lives, particularly when it has been suggested that men can feel less important or intimidated by self-assured and self-sufficient women. We want to focus on being secure and confident in who we are, while focusing on mutual respect and faith-focused foundations of treating others amicably regardless of how they perceive us.

How do we successfully work alongside men who are intimidated by our character or presence? Listen as our hosts Rachel Calland and Sinead Minkah are joined by Jayne Doherty in the Magnify Studio for Ep 50 ‘Relationship Dynamics Matter: Why Strong Women Need to Be with Secure Men'.

It’s not rare to feel like we were born with an innate passion or drive. In fact, many of us have spent most of our lives trying to navigate where we should channel this energy. In the modern age, we can find ourselves pouring our time and effort into our careers, which can easily lead to burnout. Dabbling in extremes of laziness or overworking are both harmful, but we wanted to talk about the importance of honouring our interests and dreams with a balanced and faith-filled approach.

How can we embrace our work ethic without it wearing us out, especially when we want to build something significant? Listen as our hosts Rachel Calland and Sinead Minkah are joined by Amy Ford in the Magnify Studio for Ep 49 ‘Escaping the Rat Race: It's Time for Millennials To Stop Glamourising Overworking'.

Most of us will spend a large majority of our time working, so it’s important that we make wise decisions regarding the environment we’re in. Thinking about deviating from our current career path can be met with a range of emotions, from confused to excited, fearful to liberated, and exhausted to energised. While it’s normal to consider other pathways, we also know that encountering challenges doesn't always mean it’s time to escape. Seeking counsel from God is vital in making key decisions. We also need to take into consideration that some jobs don’t feel like they’re serving us, but that doesn’t always equate to a lack of purpose.

How can we differentiate between having the courage to stay in a job when needed and the courage to leave and thrive elsewhere? Listen as our hosts Rachel Calland and Sinead Minkah are joined by Donita Boateng in the Magnify Studio for Ep 48 ‘Embracing Change: Leaving a Job That Limits My Potential'.

There’s a thousand opinions on what Biblical relationships should look like, and we wanted to look at what a strong and thriving marriage consists of when the woman is the higher earner. How can we turn some traditions and gender expectations on its head while still placing mutual respect, trust and a focus on God’s plans for our lives at the core? Oftentimes the focus on strong women is related to unwavering independence, but we wanted to take a look into why strong women and their counterparts are powerful when they receive high quality support from their spouses.

What if being a woman and the higher earner in a relationship wasn’t a problem, but a benefit? Listen as our hosts Rachel Calland and Sinead Minkah are joined by Kat Tait in the Magnify Studio for Ep 47 ‘Unstoppable Together: The Benefits of Being a Strong Woman in a Relationship'.

Life can seem uninspiring and start to feel monotonous when we’re chasing our tails by living paycheck to paycheck. Once we get to a point where we feel like we’re surviving rather than thriving, it’s likely that it’s time to start reassessing our career options, without limiting ourselves to the 9-5 box. We all have talents and areas of expertise that can be built on to expand our earnings, while using our main job as our base income. Most of us are capable, but need to apply wisdom to securing financial stability for us, and our loved ones by removing any limiting mindsets we have.

How can we make the jump to expand our current salary and generate additional income by aligning our strengths with a thoughtful plan? Listen as our hosts Rachel Calland and Sinead Minkah are joined by Tomiwa da-Silva in the Magnify Studio for Ep 46 ‘Making Money Moves with Multiple Income Streams.’

Many of us have a strong sense that tells us there is more for our skills and jobs. This can stem from a place of dissatisfaction, or be a clear calling to take a leap of faith and live out our purpose. We want to make well informed decisions about changing course, so we can use our gifts and talents in a fruitful way, and show up as our best version for ourselves, others and God. It can be tough to step out of our comfort zones when we want to shield ourselves from potential failure, but when we do that we’re not leaving room for faith-filled growth that strikes the perfect balance between crazy and calculated.

How can we really know when it’s time to make a big career move, and where do we begin? Listen as our hosts Rachel Calland and Sinead Minkah are joined by Dior Bediako in the Magnify Studio for Ep 45 ‘How To Know When It's Time for a Career Change: Unlocking Our Pivoting Potential.
