  • #3: All about Toastmasters and Public Speaking

    In this episode, I talk to one of the longest-standing members of the Toastmasters Club that I am part of, Nam.

    Nam has been part of the club for the past 20 years. 

    In this episode, we discuss why he initially joined, what toastmasters has meant to him over the years, what are the impacts that he has seen the club make on people, and what his advice for someone who wants to get better at public speaking is.

  • #2: Passion

    In this episode, I talk to my friend, Rekayi. We talked about what we have learned that we wish we knew when we were younger. One of the main topics that came up was the importance of allowing ourselves to find things that we really enjoy and are passionate about. What can we do to increase our chances of finding things that we are passionate about?

    This was a great conversation. I hope you enjoy listening to it.

  • #1: Discussing the race issue, George Floyd, and Black Lives Matter

    I talk to one of my closest friends from university about race issues. He and I often talk during the weekends just to chat. This time while we were chatting I found myself learning a lot from him about racism and the history of it. So we moved our conversation from Whats App to Anchor to record it as a podcast. Unfortunately, I was not able to record most of the conversation about the history of South Africa and apartheid. So this episode begins when we pivoted our conversations to the protests that are currently happening in the United States.

    Please note at the start of the episode, I go into a monologue as we pivoted to talk about the protests. But it becomes much more of a conversation after that. I honestly learned a lot, so I really hope you enjoy listening to our conversation as much as we enjoyed having it.

    As we discuss in the episode, one of the most important things that are happening right now is the dialogue. We are all taking the time to talk about these issues and think them through ourselves. This is extremely powerful.
