Life is really beautiful and even more so when we approach it with zest and enthusiasm. I'll be sharing life experiences and lessons, some of my personal journal on "my journey to becoming." Each content accurately reflects my life, perspectives and views; a dose of positivity in each episode. I'm a vibe, I promise. I really hope you find something of yourselves somewhere in the midst of all our conversations and stories. Life can be hard sometimes, I know and I have been there but just like a hummingbird reaches beyond the toughest and untasty parts of flowers to find that sweet nectar within, I want to constantly remind you of the beauty and sweetness we are surrounded with even in the most unlikely places or scenarios. You are not alone.

14 FEB 2021 · Lasting relationships require intentional effort and commitment. Our love languages help us express the way we feel loved and appreciated. Learning and understanding your love language and your partner's helps to strengthen the bond in a relationship. Each love language is unique and important in its own way. Our love language differs from our partner's depending on our individual personality type. Understanding and decoding your partner's love language will help you to meet their expectations and needs. Understand your love language and find ways to communicate it to your partner. One of our aspirations as human beings is to feel a sense of value and to feel appreciated. When we feel loved, valued and appreciated, this in turn rubs off on our overall productivity. We tend to attract positive things and forge healthy and more productive relationships.
24 GEN 2021 · A Hummingbird Special Podcast in memory of my late dad. Losing a loved one is a very devastating experience and I feel there's no manual to coping with grief. You just have to sit with it and allow yourself to fully experience these feelings and react in ways that help you process and release these intense emotions. Sometimes, it feels like the pain will never end but as hard as it may seem, you would deliberately and consciously just have to find ways to adjust to life without the person you lost. You never know how strong you are until being strong is the only option you have. My dad was my biggest cheerleader and I'm very sure, he is still rooting for me wherever he is. "Blessed are they who mourn, for they shall be comforted."
Dear Dad, in life I loved you, in death I love you still.
23 GEN 2021 · The people we meet in our life sojourn have a specific role to play in our lives. To teach us lessons that we need to learn in order to evolve and grow as humans. Pain they say, is a teacher. Your ex doesn't always have to be the villain(well except for cases of abuse). They are wonderful people in themselves because at some point, we shared a beautiful part of our life with them - the pleasant memories and the support system. The problem here is that most people do not come to terms with the fact that nothing is permanent in this life. Human love is frail. Somethings aren't just meant to be and it requires a mental upgrade to understand that we probably have different directions in life. The mistake most people make after a break up especially one that was painful is that, we refuse to take time to heal. I know it may seem difficult to let go of a relationship where you may have invested so much of your self, energy and time in, to no avail, but what's even worse is going into a new relationship with old baggages. You shouldn't go into new relationships with old wounds so you don't bleed on the people who didn't even hurt you. I feel if you haven't completely healed, then you don't have any business being in a relationship. Relationships are not rehabilitation centers. Learn to appreciate the single life and enjoy yourself while at it so you can add value in subsequent relationships and partnerships going forward. Remember, time heals. Be grateful for the lessons and have also the courage to enjoy newness in its entirety and wholeness. Try not to dilute the new, with the savour of the old. Take your time to heal, forgive yourself and move on.
13 GEN 2021 · Sexual consent is a very crucial subject in our society today. It is quite unfortunate, that our society has become so morally bankrupt and decadent that pure and genuine relationships, void of sexual intimacy between the male and female is more or less becoming extinct in our generation. As adults, we should be able to let our intentions clear from the get go. Maintaining healthy, open and honest conversations would go a long way in curbing these situations that play out because communication is very sacrosanct in human relationships. One should not assume that once a girl accepts to come over to a man's house, then it expressly implies sexual consent
To be on the safe side, regardless of the signals you receive from a lady, never assume she is interested in your sex organ. That is the reason I reiterate, maintain healthy, open and honest conversations. To the men, let your intentions be known from the outset. The ball is in her court. And to the ladies, set healthy boundaries and be firm with your stance. If it is really necessary to meet with a male friend, then insist on meeting outdoors. "Wisdom is profitable to direct."
29 LUG 2020 · When someone assumes something or asserts a claim based on one part of your identity, that is in fact "Stereotype." Stereotypes take on many forms. It is a cognitive aspect in our perceptions of people, communities or regions whether positive or negative. If you walk into a store to purchase a dress or shirt, once payment has been made by the owner, she automatically gets rid of the label/tag and goes ahead to rock the dress in whatever style suits her; the dress no longer belongs to the boutique. As humans, we should learn to get past these beliefs and react to people more on the basis of his/her individual character rather than the skin colour, gender, religion, age or ethnic background. Stereotypes have a way of triggering or affecting our actions towards people or persons from a particular sect. We take one experience or ordeal or a small idea and try to extrapolate the idea around it to assert a broad claim over a larger population without adequate evidence. Discrimination and prejudice becomes a major societal problem because these stereotypes subtly encourage it within our niches. We need to let go, of every preconceived image or idea we have of people and just relate with them on an individual level...
8 LUG 2020 · A Podcast by Mfon Bassey. No individual should be judged on the basis of his/her grip on English Language. A person should not be made to be feel any less or inferior because of his/her accent as long as they are able to communicate and be understood effectively in English.
6 LUG 2020 · "Commitment is an act, and not a word." - Sartre. I often wonder, why are the simplest things the most difficult to truly see/understand?
3 LUG 2020 · A podcast by Mfon Bassey: Lifestyle and Culture segment. Over time Nigerian music has evolved and grown into a major driving force in projecting African entertainment. We've seen and heard different artistes during this transition. Is there still room for improvement or do we settle for the current trend of whatever suits the market/industry?

18 MAG 2020 · Hey guys, welcome to my first podcast episode. I'm a bit new to this asides the fact that it feels like I'm having my normal, daily conversations so stay with me as we grow and journey together. I'm learning and exploring new ways of becoming and being; in so doing feeling a sense of purpose as I dive inside the depth of all the creativity laying inside of me. I have realized that the only thing that keeps us and limits us from stretching as far as we are capable of going, from growing is the mind. For a very long time I've been so afraid, afraid of leaving my comfort zone, afraid of pushing myself, afraid of what people may think, of what people would say that I pushed back my dreams. But with time I learnt that sometimes you just have to do you, and everyone would adjust. You wouldn't go far if all you do is think about how people would perceive you or worry about if they'd like you. We have to toughen up when it comes to facing rejection. I'm doing all the things I'm passionate about and just having fun, taking it a day at a time, taking baby steps... Not for the laud, but for me. Just because I can.
