Resilience while Living with Chronic Illness

Faith, effort and balance (FEB)

We are in the month of June, but I wanted to share this F.E.B. reflection about balance again, especially after the release of my book, Favourite, Based on the Story of Joseph. As a Christian doctor, I am keen on clarifying that faith does not erase the need for action and work. Whether we are talking about health, finances, family or personal growth, there will be a part we have to play if we want to be successful, and not just wishful thinkers. I hope you find something challenging and encouraging in this episode. Thank you for listening. - Afiniki.co.uk

Dream bigger dreams

I have been reflecting on the fact that many people are just coasting, especially in midlife. Some are just surviving with no excitement for life, while others are basking in past successes. I am sharing this one again to remind us to think big and dream bigger dreams. There is so much more to life than eating, working, sleeping and paying bills. Listen, and feel free to share your thoughts via Afiniki.co.uk. If you have got tickets to the Mums and Daughters Forte Charity Dinner next month, we will be hearing more about giving back there. Thank you for your support. Have a great weekend!

Resilience while Living with Chronic Illness

This bonus episode from Jack and Jill (my AI-generated AHOS podcast assistants) is based on Dr Miller's work. It discusses how we can choose happiness over stress even while dealing with chronic illness or other stressful life events. Health is wealth, but what do we do when health is lacking? Happiness over stress is not about denying the realities of life - we can choose to look after our mental wellbeing even in the tough seasons. Resilience is not about toxic positivity during sad or scary times; it is about choosing hope and gratitude even through the tears.

User versus Owner

In this episode, I share a Hausa proverb from my childhood in Northern Nigeria, with a different explanation for our busy lifestyles today. Hausa is spoken in many African countries, and the folk tales from Africa often have important lessons. I am not very good with languages, so feel free to comment and correct my Hausa, if needed. We can choose happiness over stress by being intentional about how we spend our time and resources, counting the long-term cost of any decision and being flexible to change and retrace our steps when we know better. I have also shared an AI-generated explainer bonus podcast based on this podcast titled, The Wealth of Presence. Feel free to share your thoughts via Afiniki.co.uk. Have a great week!
