I identify as a trier

It's been 2 whole years since I last recorded an episode. In that time I have let life offer some perspective and came to the realisation that I am just a trier and that is my super power!In this episode I share some of that perspective and I hope to share more in the coming weeks. Until then. I hope you enjoy listening.

I have been reading (a lot more recently than I usually do). My most recent read, Letters to a young poet by Rainer Maria Rilke has me doing a lot of introspection as to why I do the things I do in the arts. One of the things I have consciously tried to do in the last few weeks is to indulge my creative urges and explore whenever I get a spore of creativity.  In this episode, I share a few thoughts on "What really drives us to search" and how we must look inwards to manifest the things we want out of life. "Live the questions for now". The world is yours, Amen.  Music: Lost - Toonorth

This year has been long for me in many ways, but it has also been one of the best years because I learned lessons that have helped shape me into a better version of myself. In this episode, I discuss the year from the angles of Self, Friendship, and hobbies, emphasising the lessons from these places. I hope some of them resonate with you. 

Hey, my amazing friends! I know I have been MIA, but I am back with another episode with my friend Tanaka. We discuss a lot of topics in this one. Ranging from conspiracy theories to Dave Chappelle's last show! We also spoke about work and life in general. Enjoy!! 

In this episode of wider conversations, I have Daniel Phiri with me and we discuss moving to Paris, France and London, UK respectively. We also talk about our love for Music and advice for moving to a new city. Most days life is hard. Come listen to Daniel and I talk about how we make art out of the versions of this madness.

Lately, I have been thinking a lot about what dreams mean to me. What I actually want to be doing versus what I am currently doing. I am fully aware that my dreams are valid and I thought I would share my thoughts on these things. Also, the Off-Season is upon us, it is time to think about what you've always wanted to do. If you let them kill your dreams it will hunt you still. 

Sometimes I ponder on a lot of things, today it's about the concept of moving and what I have learned. Moving is long, but my soul needs to know peace. It is important to note that growth comes with a lot of realizations and some of them might not be so welcoming but you are put in that place for a reason. Explore and remember to enjoy the process. 

In this episode, I talk about 2020 in retrospect with my friend Ore Ogundipe, we really just focus on how the year made us feel and the lessons we got and "plans" (If 2020 taught us anything is that plans should be in the air quotes ) for 2021.  Listen, enjoy, tell your friends. 

This episode focuses on the pressures of being a "man" in this modern society and offers some advice to introspect on your toxic vices. I also have a guest on this episode to offer some perspective on this subject matter. I hope you can relate and in general we can all become better humans together. 💜 

This episode has a lot of context on why I stopped putting out poetry and what has been going on in my life for the past two weeks. Also, there is a lot of reference to Jcole's "The climb back" song. Enjoy!
