The dreaded pandemic had altered plans for a long time but I'm glad to be back with a few episodes. I was lucky to be able to sit and have a conversation with Mrs Amon thanks to her daughter reaching out. We talked about our parents and getting older which naturally brought us to legacies and posterity. I jumped at the opportunity to sit with Mrs Amon and we quickly eased into what became a very f...

I met Mr Valentine Ezike on a rainy Sunday evening in his lovely home and before long we were sat down to have this brilliant conversation. If you know anything about Nigeria you might know that there are quite a number of languages, cultures, tribes, faiths, sects and so on. It's no surprise that although I lived in Nigeria, I wasn't at all aware of the experience of someone of Igbo heritage. We...

One thing that's clear to me at this point is that even though my guests in each episode so far have lived through a similar era with similar patterns, the story is quite different from person to person and I never know what to expect.  Although Mr Taiwo wasn't a stranger to me, there was still so much I didn't know about his life experiences. Some of which was quite fantastic and revelatory to me...

I sat with Mr Odunuga just minutes after walking through his door and we made ourselves some tea and got chatting almost immediately. It was really natural like we'd known each other for a lot longer. His insight and interesting life was a pleasure to listen to.  If you have any questions or comments about any topics in this episode please email: age2agepodcast@gmail.com More from the podcast: ⁠In...

I really got lucky to be able to sit and have this conversation. Not only did we talk about many insightful things, we also agree that his generation and my generation ought to have more of these kinds of conversations. It was an absolute delight to talk about various topics with someone who is really quite close to my family. If you enjoy this episode and want to share your feedback, please email...

This episode is entirely different from the norm on the podcast and that's because in this episode my guest is a friend of mine whose support was integral to the decision to launch the podcast. We decided (on short notice) to go over some recurring, but also random, topics from previous episodes. The goal was to put ourselves in the seat of the casual listener. To react to some of the themes a...

My guest has a really interesting story that starts from as early as when she was 6 weeks old. Growing up with a foster family before eventually living with her parents. She’s a financial educator today but like everyone else has had to overcome personal insecurities. Throughout our conversation she comes across with such optimism that even through losses and situations that could easily negativel...

Part 2 continues with the journey of their move from Nigeria to the UK for their children's education due to prior planning and the advice of a mentor. The emphasis on the significance of investing time in their children and the role strong familial relationships play in shaping their development. They also discuss personal regrets and the sacrifices made for a better future, such as leaving b...

My guests in this episode are Mr & Mrs Paul Olaleye. The short story is that I met them at a 3 year launch of Puff Puff Ministry which is a fantastic business run by their daughters. I performed at one of their events and from there we scheduled a time to meet and have this conversation. Since then I can't tell you how instrumental Uncle Paul has been to the life of this podcast. How suppo...

My wonderful guest in this episode is Shayo Imologome (AKA Lady Shayo), a remarkable woman with an incredible story to tell. She believes women can have it all. We talk about her early life living with foster parents, finding love, marriage and how woman can successfully juggle multiple roles. Lady Shayo is a strategy consultant, a business analyst, a coach, wife and mother. She narrates her exper...

On this episode I had the privilege of speaking with a pioneer in the advertising industry in Nigeria. He was a chairman of Troyka holding group for years, he was a CEO of Insight Communication for 25years and is considered to be an iconic guru in advertising. Successfully navigating from journalism into the world of advertising, his biography "The will to win" chronicles the journey of...

Age 2 Age Podcast - Episode 10: Dr Akintunde Akinkunmi On this episode I had the privilege of sitting with a medical doctor, a lawyer, an author who also served in both the Nigerian army and the British army. If that sounds spectacular for any one person to accomplish, it's because it is. We had a great conversation that indulged his in-depth knowledge of the rich history of Nigeria politics and i...

My guest in this episode is someone who has been in my life for quite a few years. When my father passed he was one of the few people who stepped in as a father figure in that time and until now. I have a great deal of respect for him and I'm glad I got this opportunity to sit with him and explore his journey up to the present. As with some of my guests in the past it turns out that some of th...

In this episode, I'm sat talking with Mr Jonathan Olu Amon. It's a riveting conversation and borders on what some might consider controversial. The backdrop for this episode, however, was the political and racial unrest following the murder of George Floyd and the Black Lives Matter movement. This episode was recorded in the heat of that period. We delve into topics around race, spirituality, self...

Mother's Day Special: This episode has been long overdue and I'm really glad I finally got this special guest to sit with me. One of the most ingenious women I've had the privilege to know. None other than the woman who brought me into this world 🤗🙏🏾
