The Value Café With Esther Opone

Christabel Mbachu, aka, "baby girl for life" joins me in this super-honest and fun conversation about struggles with maintaining spirituality while in camp. This is especially with the change in routine, all the draining activities as well as numerous distractions, and how she was able to reground herself in her christian walk. Sit back, enjoy and gain loads of value. Also, share with your friends and feel free to give your feedback via voice messages, dm or send a mail to [email protected]. Make it a date for another episode next Tuesday!

Something shorter, light and mushy 😍.

As my NYSC shenanigans continue in Sokoto orientation camp, I caught up with some friends, Toyin, Yusuf, Aisha, Nicole and Jigh to exchange banter on camp boo and bae vibes.

Listen as they share on could-have-beens, weird situations and yes, on finding love (for the 2 guests who did). Trust us to throw in some platoon shading and of course, some mini-regrets and lessons learnt.

Listen via link below, share and let me know your feedback.

Corper Wee! Did I tell you? I became a "Sokoto Kwopha" in mid-May and it has been quite an interesting journey full of new experiences, new interactions and new perspectives during the NYSC orientation camp. I invited some of my colleagues at the camp clinic from different parts of Nigeria, Chidera, Tirmizi, Amina and Abimbola, to share on their own expectations and experiences, especially their first thought on seeing their call up to Sokoto, lessons learnt so far and their take on scraping the NYSC scheme. Listen, enjoy, give your feedback and of course share this fun and banter-filled episode. See you next Tuesday for another juicy one!

Phew! With this final talk with Victor Owotumi Damola, aka Coach VDV, we wrap up this series on Starting, Quitting and Pivoting. A business coach and advocate, founder of Peniel Cards and a youth development enthusiast, VDV shares on his drive and the tricks that have helped him juggle multiple things, and to know when to quit. He also has an interesting and unconventional take on having good people vs right people in your life. As usual, sit back, listen, have fun and spread the goodness with your friends. Look forward to a fresh new episode starting next Tuesday.

Another friend in the house! In this 3rd episode of the May series on Starting, Quitting and Pivoting, Lois Ugbe brings in her own unique story as she combines being a minister of the gospel, web designer and host of The Lois Ugbe podcast. Listen as she reflects and shares on the importance of community, sticking through even when you doubt your own value and why you need to be "calming down" in this life. Sit back, have fun, drop your feedback and remember to share with your friends. Join again next week for the last episode of this series.
