13 JUN 2025 · In this episode, I’m joined once again by Dr. Olamide Okulaja, brilliant, thoughtful, and deeply grounded as we trace the arc of his remarkable career journey. From medical school to leading health policy conversations on the continent, Olamide opens up about the defining choices, mentors, and “sliding door” moments that shaped who he is today.
We talk about what it’s like to occupy prestigious, high-stakes spaces as an African professional, often one of the few in the room, and the inner negotiation that comes with that. Olamide shares how he’s learned to move through self-doubt, not by pretending it doesn’t exist, but by anchoring himself in purpose and community. This episode is a reflection on growth, identity, and the quiet power of staying the course, even when your voice shakes.
23 MAY 2025 · In this raw and honest episode, I sit down with one of my closest friends, José Maria, as he opens up about a deeply personal journey; losing his job not once, but twice. We talk about the emotional toll of professional setbacks, the identity crisis that often follows, and how he found the strength to pivot each time. What makes José’s story even more powerful is that he speaks not only from experience, but as a seasoned HR professional. He shares valuable insights and compassionate advice for anyone currently facing retrenchment or navigating the uncertainty of a job loss. Whether you’re in transition or supporting someone who is, this conversation is a balm and a blueprint.
7 MAY 2025 · In this episode, I sit down with a good friend Charity, the powerhouse behind Royal Gems, one of Kenya’s leading luxury jewelry brands. Charity opens up about the unexpected turn her life took after being retrenched from a promising corporate career, just as she was expecting her first child. What began as a temporary attempt at entrepreneurship soon revealed itself as her true calling. She shares the honest highs and lows of navigating identity loss, financial uncertainty, and self-discovery, and the pivotal moment that made her choose to go all in on business. Today, she leads a thriving brand that not only brings joy and elegance to her customers, but also supports a growing team and their families. This is a story of reinvention, resilience, and redefining success on your own terms.
20 APR 2025 · In this deeply personal and moving episode, I sit down with one of my closest friends, Samuel Njeri, as he shares his journey of raising a child with autism. With April being Autism Awareness Month, this conversation is especially meaningful. Sam opens up about the moment of diagnosis, the emotional rollercoaster that followed, and the blame and stigma often experienced by families. He speaks candidly about how his family has learned to adapt, grow, and advocate for their child in a world that still has much to learn about neurodiversity. This episode is a tender reminder that every parenting journey is unique and that love, patience, and understanding go a long way.
11 APR 2025 · In this powerful kickoff to Season 2, I sit down with Dr. Olamide, a brilliant mind in healthcare and leadership, to unpack a feeling many of us quietly carry, imposter syndrome. From high-pressure spaces to moments of self-doubt, Dr. Olamide opens up about what it’s like to question your worth even when your track record speaks volumes. We explore how cultural expectations, internalized pressure, and the fear of not being “enough” can sneak into our everyday lives, and what it really takes to rise above it. Whether you're early in your career or leading at the top, this episode will remind you: you’re not alone, and there’s power in owning your story.
