S2. EP15| The space between trying and giving up

There’s a space that no one really talks about,the space between giving up and trying. The place where you’re tired, uncertain, and questioning whether all your effort is leading anywhere. You're not ready to quit, but you're not as hopeful as you used to be either. In this episode of Perspective Unfiltered, I reflect on that in-between season..the waiting, the frustration, the quiet resilience, and what it means to keep showing up when nothing seems to be changing. Maybe not every season is about winning. Maybe some seasons are simply about staying. Article on off campus- https://open.substack.com/pub/bi...

S2. Ep14| Their success is not a proof of your failure

Sometimes it’s hard to be happy for people when you feel like life hasn’t been moving for you. Not because you’re bitter… but because somewhere deep down, you start wondering when it’ll finally be your turn. In this episode of Perspective Unfiltered, I reflect on comparison, silent pressure, insecurity, and the fear of being left behind. This is a conversation about learning to celebrate people without questioning your own worth in the process. Maybe their success was never proof of your failure… maybe your story is just unfolding differently.

S2. Ep13| The Quiet pressure of becoming

This episode feels a little all over the place… but maybe that’s the point. I talk about my past obsession with physical appearance, pressure, growth, and what it feels like when you’re trying so hard but nothing seems to be showing yet. Just a quiet conversation about becoming, uncertainty, and figuring things out in real time.

S2. Ep11| When respect feels like pressure

At what point does respect start to feel like pressure? In this episode of Perspective Unfiltered, I reflect on growing up in an African household where being “respectful” often means being quiet, obedient, and not questioning anything. But somewhere in all of that, it’s easy to lose your voice without even realising it. This isn’t about being disrespectful… it’s about understanding the difference between respect and people pleasing, and learning how to exist without constantly shrinking yourself.
