Most of us have dreams larger than life itself and we will keep waiting, waiting for the right time to come before starting. Waiting for that “big break” that will validate the effort you have put into your craft. The opportunities you need might not come to your doorstep, you just might need to seek them out. Look at it this way, in basketball, the more shots you shoot, the more likely you are to...

Hiii. How are you? Really. In today’s episode I speak about the art of “unlooking” and why we should fine tune it, if not for anything, but for our own peace of mind. There are so many beliefs in the the world, I mean there are so many people, cultures and religions so it makes sense that they will be just as many perspectives. When you listen you’ll hear a statement like “your life is your busine...

My my, it’s been a minute. My deep apologies, like my friends would say, it’s the consequence of doing so much. No worries though, we’re back and we’re back for good. In today’s episode I give the explanation for our brief hiatus. I have just concluded a massive project and I spill the tea on how I was able to pull it off. If you’re a leader or you’re planning to organize anything at all, you defi...

Being down at some point is inevitable, we all have to agree to this. However, feeling guilty for that downtime is almost a certainty especially if you are a person with a lot of work to get done. Sometimes, even just showing up is not an option as much as you’d want it to be and this is usually a hard pill to swallow. It’s okay, it actually is okay not to be okay. We’ve all been there or we all w...

Starting over in a new place is never easy, especially when you are totally by yourself in a strange and unfamiliar environment. I would know, I did it or I’m still doing it. In this episode, I give some practical tips on how I have been able to not only keep my head above water but swim ashore. Hopefully, we all would be in a new place at some point in our lives so this podcast will be your light...

“All work and no play makes Jack a dull boy” is a phrase we all grew up hearing, however Jack has become a man now and playing is still that tool that would make him a sharp man. With the state of the country, if you don’t find and catch cruise you’d continuously be torn between feeling fear and anger in equal measure. However, there are some things that should not be joked about, and in this conv...

All Things Bray Podcast is a full year and in all honesty it feels like it’s been five years. The past year has been one full of lessons both for me and you, my listener. I’m grateful for the support this podcast has gotten thus far but we are still a long way from the impact level we plan to attain. In today’s special episode I finally explain why I started podcasting and my motivation to keep go...

This popular saying needs no introduction, if the average Nigerian doesn’t say it in a day, she is feeling it. Life always throws a curve at us and it’s our responsibility to be prepared for what comes. If Problems no dey finish, our solutions no suppose finish as well. In today’s episode, Bray speaks about this in the practical, humorous and relaxing way that is peculiar to her. Listen and share....

Anxiety is the feeling of worry, nervousness, or unease over something which we have or will all experience at some point in our lives. For some people, it is a daily struggle while for others it is triggered by certain circumstances. However, regardless of how often or how few and far between it presents, it robs you of whatever calm you might possess. In today’s episode, I’ll be sharing some tip...

My My, I’ve missed writing these little notes. Like I always say, “Hi guys!!! Welcome back to another episode of All Things Bray” lol.

Last week, we discussed the true meaning of imposter syndrome and how it affects our lives. This week, my guest and I enunciate practical steps that will help you overcome this monster called imposter syndrome. Sit back, relax and get prepared to laugh while you learn as we take you on this necessary journey of discovery. Enjoy! 💜 Bray

According to Michelle Obama, Imposter Syndrome is “...That feeling that you shouldn’t take me that seriously. What do I know?” For me, it is the feeling that you are a fraud about to be found out and for my guest Favour Adaeze, it is like earning your way to the top and not deserving the view. In whatever form it takes, imposters syndrome can rob us of our wins and make us feel like we are only pr...

What is the song we have been singing in the past weeks? EndSARS #EndPoliceBrutality. This is a very real issue, Nigerians have to deal with the reality of police brutality every single day. In today’s episode I have tried to make this struggle as relatable as possible by sharing my experience with this public menace. After listening, I hope that you partake in this struggle anyway you can and I k...

Guilt “All the guilt is lazy energy, it doesn’t change the past and it doesn’t shape the future. It’s a waste and we got no time to waste. We gotta live.” This was such a profound statement that spoke to me from a dialogue in the 2019 movie When They See Us (If you’ve not watched it, you should) However, guilt is not as harmless as it’s made out to be in this statement because if it’s not dealt wi...

Hey guysssss Today’s episode is a refreshing conversation between friends about maintaining your creative energy. It’s easy to create when you have the right conditions but how about when the situation is less than desirable? Do you push through? Do you do it haphazardly? Or do you just quit. These and more are the purview of the conversation I had with Zikey, a talented artiste and prolific songw...

No, it’s not a worship song lol Ever thought you were not good enough? that you were a failure waiting to happen, that you were one bad luck away from being discovered as a fraud? In other words, Have you ever considered yourself to be an imposter only succeeding because of a streak of luck? That’s a shame because I know for a fact that you are worthy and that you deserve every good thing that com...

This year really did a number on me and I’m not referring to 2020. This doesn’t happen often but I’m lost for words to describe its impact on my life. However every situation life throws our way is an opportunity to learn and missing the lesson in any situation is an open invitation for life to teach you all over again, often times with more intensity. Do yourself a favour and learn the lesson the...

Finding the courage to live true to your dreams or the plans you have set for yourself is hard. Especially in Nigeria, where it seems the forces of the universe form an alliance to keep you from actualizing your vision. From convincing your loved ones that your plans are worthwhile, to the discipline you’d have to inculcate and the backbreaking work you’d have to do if you are to stand a fighting...

It’s easy to fall into the slippery slope of comparing yourself to others. Some use it to feel good about themselves and their achievements while for others, it leaves them feeling unaccomplished. Questions race through their minds like am I good enough? What is different about me? What do they have that I don’t? Do I have what it takes? Yadayadayada... Just hush, take a deep breath and listen to...

We live in a dysfunctional world where systems are not working and people are rarely held accountable for their actions. We have a choice, we can choose to be part of the problem by promoting hate and oppressing others or we can be the change we need to see even if it might seem like a just a drop in a large ocean. One way to go about that is by unlearning whatever bias or prejudice we might have....
