We don’t speak enough about generational patterns. You don’t even know when you’re neck deep in a pattern until it’s too late. I had to fight it . fight giving up my career for marriage, fight early pregnancy, fight choosing a man over my self . Same age , same pattern…..but I broke it .


There's a dark cloud hovering over the office today. We lost a colleague yesterday. She convulsed in the office and later passed at the hospital. Person wey follow me laugh 30 mins before the incident... life is fickle. Take care of your health. No 9-5 is worth it.

One time we were interviewing a candidate on behalf of client for an HR lead role. As she spoke about scaling people processes, she placed a lot of emphasis on hiring and recruitment. I immediately had to jump in and say “Ahan do want to collect food from our mouth?”🤣 We all laughed because It was obviously a joke but in that moment I felt a quiet sense of fulfillment. We had supported the organization for years and helped build structures strong enough for them to eventually run HR processes independently. I wasn’t worried because recruitment is only a small fraction of what we do. There are bigger aspects of our core consulting services like culture re-engineering, organizational development, HR Tech implementation etc. And yes, she was recommended for the role based on her overall competence and strategic approach to solving problems. 😀

I dated this guy because he was a first-class student. I’ve always liked being with someone who’s smart and can match my reasoning, so I thought, “First class? That’s perfect.” A few months in, I realized my mistake. This guy would correct my English all the time, nothing I did went without a correction. We were in the same fellowship WhatsApp group, and one day they asked me to lead the opening prayer. After I typed it, he still corrected it. Everyone else was saying “Amen,” but he was busy pointing out tiny, tiny mistakes. Omoh… I blocked him.
